A Bunch of Filthy Rich Dudes Who Have Higher Out of Wedlock

Rates of Children, Higher Domestic Abuse Rates And Higher Criminal Transgression Rates Than the population in general protesting equality seems kinda hypocritical.
NFL Players Clean Your Own House Up First Then Maybe I Will Take You Seriously. Bottom Line The Product You Put Out There is Not Great, Don't Ruin What Little Entertainment Value You Still Provide.

It is a Microsoft Word setting to capitalize the first letter of each word. Google is your friend.

Child he had with Marla Maples wasn't out of wedlock, but conception was (and it was adultery).

he only talked about the NFL players and he isn't wrong with the assessment. Facts back that up.
However Trump isn't all sunshine so I agree but just not seeing how it relates to OP.

And, I feel very strongly about it. But, really only for myself. On a scale of 1-10 on how important it is for ME to show my respect for the colors during the national anthem, it's definitely an 11. I always use the time during the anthem to imagine what it was like for veterans of older wars (Korea, Vietnam, WWII, WWI, Civil War, Revolutionary War). I'm a veteran, and have deployed three times. But, I didn't have it NEARLY as bad as those real veterans. Anyway, I always use the time while I'm saluting the flag to think about them and express silent gratitude for the sacrifices they made, the widows they made, the fatherless children they made, the mourning mothers, fathers, siblings, friends, fiancees, etc.
On the other hand, using the same scale of 1-10 (technically 11 now) on how important it is to me that other people express their gratitude (if they have any), I'd say it's closer to a 1. What other people do with their level of gratitude is really none of my business. I agree, it's a distraction. But, I'm not easily distracted. You can't distract me from my own gratitude. And, that's exactly what those who served died for. I know, it's ironic. But, it is what it is. And there really isn't anything anyone can do about it. It would only make it worse.
My two cents. Take it or leave it. I really don't care either way. It's not my place to try to change anyone's beliefs.
I would like to know, from the OP, is there a source for the information about the rates of children out of wedlock, domestic abuse, and criminal transgression in the NFL? I'd just like to look at that out of curiosity. Were there other statistics in there, as well?

^^^ I guess that makes them ZEROES. That's where I would put them.
The only reason the NFL owners are supporting them is that without them the NFL would collapse overnight if they fired all of them. Owners are just covering their own interests, and are probably just selling their souls to the devil (if they haven't done that earlier in life). Regardless, the devil owns them, and they own the souls of anyone that supports the NFL or NBA.
When it filters down to college and high school, then I won't support them in any way either. To #### with each and every one of them.

slave owners. They buy the best players they can for their team in order to pad their own pockets which is exponentially more than the players earn. Put them out on the field to beat the $hit out of each other then discard them when they no longer bring value. Bring in next group to do it again.
Government assistance is similar. Keeps a limit on a person's potential by giving away just enough to make a person feel satisfied and takes away their motivation.

When the sperm donors become the fathers they are supposed
Sep 27, 2017, 7:47 AM

to be, many of these social issues will improve. The man of a household is the family leader and should raise a loving family while teaching honor, respect, discipline, etc. Based on the article below from a CNN anchor, the father is absent and the child that didn't ask and would not want for him to not be around is put into a bad position from the start. Mom and grandma, bless their hearts, can only do so and would rather have the father there to be the leader. My dad taught me at an early age to respect others, to obey laws, to study and work hard, etc and I knew what he would do if I didn't. I was held accountable for my actions and actually knew what that means because my dad taught that. Unfortunately, this inequality that African-Americans perceive by police is because often police commands aren't obeyed which makes cop feel they are in threatening situation. When you are told to stop, you stop. When you are told to put your hands up, put your hands up. That quickly defuses any hostile situation and things can be sorted out peacefully. Yes, there are bad cops like there are some bad people in every occupation but many of the evils that we as people often perceive are of our own doing.
CNN's Don Lemon says more than 72 percent of African-American births are out of wedlock
By Louis Jacobson on Monday, July 29th, 2013 at 6:48 p.m.
CNN anchor Don Lemon offered a commentary on race that went viral. We fact-checked a claim he made about out-of-wedlock births among African-Americans. In the middle of a national conversation about race following the George Zimmerman acquittal, CNN anchor Don Lemon gave an on-air commentary that went viral on social media. The focus of the commentary was a five-point list of recommendations. "Black people," Lemon said, "if you really want to fix the problem, here's just five things that you should think about doing."
The No. 1 item on that list -- "and probably the most important," he said -- had to do with out-of-wedlock births.
"Just because you can have a baby, it doesn't mean you should," Lemon said. "Especially without planning for one or getting married first. More than 72 percent of children in the African-American community are born out of wedlock. That means absent fathers. And the studies show that lack of a male role model is an express train right to prison and the cycle continues."
Lemon’s commentary inspired a firestorm of criticism on social media -- the website Mediaite published a sampling -- and bloggers took aim at his conclusions.
"If Lemon really wanted to help the black community, he could start by adopting a deeper understanding of the history, sociology and psychology of his own people," wrote Washington Post blogger Rahiel Tesfamariam. "Offering made-for-TV analysis about deeply complex social issues in the manner in which he did is irresponsible and lacks intellectual rigor."
We can’t check Lemon’s opinions, but we did want to take a look at the one verifiable fact he offered. Is it correct that "more than 72 percent of children in the African-American community are born out of wedlock"?
We turned to data from the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which publishes a report every year that includes a wealth of data about births in America. The most recent report, published in August 2012, is based on data from 2010.
The report broke down statistics by ethnic groups. Here’s a summary
Racial or ethnic group Percent of births considered "non-marital" Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders 17 percent Non-Hispanic whites 29 percent Hispanics 53 percent American Indian and Native Alaskans 66 percent Non-Hispanic blacks 73 percent

Somebody points out the real root of the issue and he gets lambasted for it. This is why it will never be corrected.
