the argument that it mimics a dance that was part of Native American religious culture.

If people like you get your way we will erase all references in an attempt the 'honor' these cultures but in doing so we will also wipe those cultures from our collective memories.

KC female I grew up with is deeply distraught the fans are - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 08:18:21

Conflation Expert should be your handle... - Gyro MU - 1/25 09:15:22

how is the chop related to kneeling during the anthem? (nm) - ashtray UF - 1/25 08:49:29

That if you can make the argument kneeling is not offensive - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 08:52:21

players kneeling during the anthem is a political protest - ashtray UF - 1/25 08:54:18

What does that have to do with it? - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 08:56:00

who's doing that? (nm) - ashtray UF - 1/25 08:59:40

No one is, but it would not be allowed if they tried - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 09:00:56

huh? - ashtray UF - 1/25 09:14:44

after reading this - meatiger MU - 1/25 09:22:51

that was a dumb argument, 4Tigs (nm) - pickle MU

- 1/25 09:02:27

He thinks him being offended - meatiger MU - 1/25 08:51:08

How can Indians be offended if those doing the chop - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 08:54:57

an action is not offensive. the actor does not offend. - pickle MU

- 1/25 09:03:40

the standard given by who? - ashtray UF - 1/25 09:00:07

Here is a tip - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 09:01:47

So your female friend - meatiger MU - 1/25 09:02:40

If you can point out where I said she spoke for everyone - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 09:05:31

you use that as your defense of the chop - meatiger MU - 1/25 09:06:30

That is the argument that was used in the OP - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 09:08:12

then it's your issue for listening to your idiot friend (nm) - ashtray UF - 1/25 09:15:41

I was pointing out how silly and inconsistent her position - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 09:17:36

her position isn’t inconsistent (nm) - pickle MU

- 1/25 09:44:07

no you were not - meatiger MU - 1/25 09:22:12

Read the thread (as best you can comprehend meat) - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 09:24:06

So you agree you are an emotional child - meatiger MU - 1/25 09:25:14

I am pretty excited I was able to get someone as clearly and - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 09:26:57

And you built your argument off of that. - meatiger MU - 1/25 09:09:32

Welcome to the entire premise of the OP meat - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 09:10:19

So you build your premise - meatiger MU - 1/25 09:11:30

I was pointing out those who were saying the Anthem protest - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 09:13:52

"those who were saying" - ashtray UF - 1/25 09:16:29

Well, in this case it was my idiot friend who openly - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 09:30:05

link? (nm) - ashtray UF - 1/25 10:12:28

This is pretty easy - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 10:18:18

none of those links support your argument - ashtray UF - 1/25 10:21:57

You are wrong - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 10:34:15

where do they talk about the chop? (nm) - ashtray UF - 1/25 10:39:51

I was referencing this post - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 10:43:38

what makes it disrespectful? (nm) - ashtray UF - 1/25 10:45:54

To stand at attention marks respect and honor for something - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 10:59:48

so protesting is disrespectful - ashtray UF - 1/25 11:09:47

Not all protesting is disrepectful - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 11:19:35

According to what I have read - meatiger MU - 1/25 08:43:12

Well, good luck with that one Chiefs(nm) - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 08:44:18

The Chiefs are the ones that start it - meatiger MU - 1/25 08:48:20

that's not inconsistent (nm) - pickle MU

- 1/25 08:25:47

The chop is dumb. Nm - SparkyStalcup MU - 1/25 08:20:13

Anything is dumb to someone.(nm) - GA Tiger MU - 1/25 08:59:29

A lot of things are dumb. KC Wolf, The wave, MIZ-ZOU, - DHighlander NWMSU - 1/25 08:32:23

...the flag, participating in state worship, etc. (nm) - pickle MU

- 1/25 08:41:38

Dumbest thing - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 08:33:43

We are free to disagree - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 08:37:58

agree - SwampTiger MU - 1/25 08:38:57

To be serious, I know what they are wanting to do with that - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 08:43:53

it's short, to the point, and keeps the fans engaged - SwampTiger MU - 1/25 08:46:44

I would agree in basketball - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 08:50:37

with a packed stadium the chop is awesome (nm) - Sal MU

- 1/25 08:20:56

CHIEFS AND CHOPPER! (nm) - MIZ45 MU - 1/25 08:39:33

Who exactly is being chopped by the fans?(nm) - DHighlander NWMSU - 1/25 08:28:57

The fans decide that.(nm) - Toger STL - 1/25 08:34:22

It sounds more like you are deciding it.(nm) - DHighlander NWMSU - 1/25 08:40:07

He that engageth with retardetry doth become retarded indeed - dangertim MU

- 1/25 08:41:45

Well, no one is trying to stop you(nm) - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 08:20:42

The chop perpetuates bad stereotypes. It's sort of like - SparkyStalcup MU - 1/25 08:30:38

says Mr. Stereotype (nm) - pickle MU

- 1/25 08:42:48

Can you believe those privileged a-holes??????? - MIZ45 MU - 1/25 08:40:32

Yes, I see poor behavior all the time. However, there's no - SparkyStalcup MU - 1/25 08:41:46

What stereotype is perpetuated by the chop? I can accept - DHighlander NWMSU - 1/25 08:39:33

You'll have to show me the dance. I've never seen it. And - SparkyStalcup MU - 1/25 08:43:05

So if I wanted to go to a Halloween party as Lebron James - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/25 08:32:11

Up to you and your conscience. Nm - SparkyStalcup MU - 1/25 08:38:49
