Reading through this thread confirms the level of butt-hurt these days is almost as comical as it is concerning.  It's almost as though people just look for ways to be offended like its some sort of new fashion trend.  

Or, you know,  people can stop being racists and discriminatory.

I swear to fuging God this fan base never fails to astonish me with its insensitivity to just about anything offensive. 

It shouldn't surprise you, given the geographic location, to be honest.

People get angry when someone else is offended because they know they cant get away with their behavior like in the past...If things could only be like it was 65 years ago, say and do what you want without any fear of getting fired or criticism because no else had a voice to let it be known they were even  offended

No butthurt detected, but I am seeing a few triggered snowflakes trying to their best damage control for Mister's sake.

This is rich coming from you, and most people in this thread complaining about people finding things offensive. Again another situation where selfishness and “what I feel and do” is more important than others or lack of empathy rears it’s head. The same group of people who whined and cried about kneeling is telling others they need to toughen up and not get offended. That man should not have referred to those players as inmates, as being referred to as an inmate or criminal has always and will always have negative connotations. You damn right I’m going to get mad if you refer to me as an inmate, and I don’t care how you meant it. I don’t know if the man is a racist, but I haven’t called him that. He should have chose his words better.

Also, it’s been mentioned a few times in here, but when has it ever been ok to say offensive things or what time period we’re people “tougher” and didn’t get offended? Just like I’d like to know when America was “great” since that’s often stated, but I’ll savr that for the TB.

You’re getting me confused with others. I don’t care about kneeling during the anthem. It’s never affected how I’ve viewed the NFL or the players. I don’t agree with it nor do I think they should be making the game political, but it’s such a minor thing to me that makes no difference at all. I’ve never been “offended” by it or wasted much time thinking about it. They have every right to do it and I’ll continue to watch and root for the players on the Panthers if they do it. However the owners also have every right to tell them to stop, as they are the ones running the league. “Inmates running the asylum” which the Texans owner fuged up is a completely truthful way to describe the situation and if one is offended by that then they are the one with the problem, not the one saying it.

I wonder what the feeling people got about the kneeling issue. Some may decbribe that as “offended”

 

Also wouldn’t you say that those same offended people twisted and turned the gesture into “disrespecting troops” even though it was explained over and over that it had nothing to do with the military?

Wait so because the players didn't intend to disrespect the troops means that no troops felt disrespected by it? So then McNair not intending to offend anyone means that his statement was not offensive, correct?

Anyone who compares non-criminals to criminals is about as offensive a person I can think of. Defending such is tripe behavior is tripe.

There was a time when we didn't assume every word and statement had som hidden meaning. His point got lost in the fact everyone saw him comparing his employees to criminals in a prison. But that was not what he intended. Anyone could see that. No one would intentionally make that connection. It's easy to jump on people for things like that and ignore what the person really meant.

Yep ask Collin Kaepernick... smh

Sorry dude, you can’t make derogatory, rude, misogynist, and discriminatory comments like you did in the past. It’s a new age and time, and those people you made those comments about aren’t going to stand for it anymore.

He didn’t do that at all.

Oh I'm sure, that's why so many people let the comment slide and weren't offended at all. Yup.

McNair and Richardson are out of touch with society and the way things are now. I bet those brave, courageous children marching for gun reform offended you. 

Nope.
