By now, most TV viewers have seen the overpaid ball players of the National Football League (NFL) pissing on the American flag and raising the socialist fist in yet another ill-conceived "black power" protest. You know, that same hypocritical, corporate sponsored NFL that features the pro-military patriotic bullshit during their half time shows? Well, instead of watching "the game" this week, lets have a look at some of the recent team stats provided by the FBI instead.

Black males, ages 15 to 64, comprise only about 4% of the overall U.S. population, yet according to the data they are responsible for over 37% of all violent crimes and over 28% of all property crimes, including:

• 52% of the murders
• 54% of the robberies
• 33% of the aggravated assaults
• 29% of the rapes

Go, team! What an amazing record! This team literally blows the others away. The latinos are currently trailing in second place.

Being the undisputed champs in this area does come at a cost, however. Frequent altercations with the officials are to be expected, and sometimes the penalty is severe. Of course, the millionaire "entertainers" of the NFL, like their Hollywood comrades, don't allow mere facts to interfere with their political grandstanding.

Maybe it's time for the rest of us just to pull the plug on their games, their sponsors, and their funding. Maybe it's time to put down the beer, get off the couch, and finally do something about these real-world stats instead. We could start by sacking the "liberal" governments in urban cesspools like Detroit and Oakland, and escalate from there. Has anyone noticed that most of the police shootings also occur in these Democrat controlled cities?

UPDATE: According to the "NFL Game Operations Manual" for franchise owners: "During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking... We continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country." This includes the franchise in Oakland, whose "black team" members allowed the token white quarterback to be "sacked" several times after he failed to bow the knee as demanded.

UPDATE: According to the U.S. Code, Section 36, Paragraph 301, titled Patriotic and National Observances: "During a rendition of the National Anthem...all persons present should face the flag and stand at attention with their right hand over the heart...and when the flag is not displayed, all present should face toward the music and act in the same manner they would if the flag were displayed." Until these black circus performers are ready to renounce their U.S. citizenships and their lucrative contracts, they are not exempt.
