<p>Many of you have probably heard Donald Trump&#8217;s ignorant comments about NFL players protesting injustices against African Americans by now. But in case you haven&#8217;t, we&#8217;ll get right to it.</p> 
<p>On Friday, Trump held a rally in Alabama and gave his true thoughts about the mostly African American NFL players, who take a knee in protest of the mass murders and injustices of Black people by police. Trump then called the players &#8216;sons of bitches&#8217; while urging the NFL team owners to fire them:</p> 
<q> <p>Trump wishes NFL owners would tell anthem protesters "get that son of a bitch off the field right now" <a href="https://t.co/gq4EH3lNoY" type="external">pic.twitter.com/gq4EH3lNoY</a></p> <p>&#8212; Washington Examiner (@dcexaminer) <a href="https://twitter.com/dcexaminer/status/911391761070731264" type="external">September 23, 2017</a></p> </q> 
<q> <p>&#8220;Wouldn&#8217;t you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, &#8216;Get that son of a bitch off the field right now, out, he&#8217;s fired. He&#8217;s fired!&#8217;,&#8221; Trump said. &#8220;You know, some owner is gonna do that. He&#8217;s gonna say, &#8216;That guy disrespects our flag, he&#8217;s fired.&#8217; And that owner, they don&#8217;t know it. They don&#8217;t know it. They&#8217;re friends of mine, many of them. They don&#8217;t know it. They&#8217;ll be the most popular person, for a week. They&#8217;ll be the most popular person in this country.&#8221;</p> </q> Diddy&#8217;s Response &amp;amp; Call To Action 
<p>Well, now Sean &#8216;P. Diddy&#8217; Combs has taken to social media and declared a virtual war against the racially motivated antics by the president of the United States. Here are the messages Diddy posted in response:</p> 
<q> <p>@diddy:THE LINE HAS BEEN CROSSED!!!! Time to show them #blackexcellence LETS GO! #teamlove REPRESENT REPRESENT! Repost this to the world</p> </q> 
<p>Not only did Combs make a plea to the world to spread the message about Trump, he also extended a word of advice for ALL NFL players to take a stand on Sunday:</p> Public Reacts To Trump&#8217;s NFL Comments &amp;amp; Calls For NFL Players To #TakeAKnee 
<p>Many people have taken to social media to call out Trump after his NFL comments and to urge NFL players to ALL take a knee come Sunday:</p> 
<q> <p>Racism. Police brutality. This is what the NFL protests were about from the start. Not about disrespecting the flag or anthem. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/TakeAKnee?src=hash" type="external">#TakeAKnee</a> <a href="https://t.co/P1KfJJw24S" type="external">pic.twitter.com/P1KfJJw24S</a></p> <p>&#8212; The Undefeated (@TheUndefeated) <a href="https://twitter.com/TheUndefeated/status/911682699819208704" type="external">September 23, 2017</a></p> </q>

<q> <p>If peaceful protests did nothing, the powerful wouldn't try so hard to silence them. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/TakeAKnee?src=hash" type="external">#TakeAKnee</a> <a href="https://t.co/0aONI66gJF" type="external">pic.twitter.com/0aONI66gJF</a></p> <p>&#8212; NYCLU (@NYCLU) <a href="https://twitter.com/NYCLU/status/911610703525634048" type="external">September 23, 2017</a></p> </q>

<q> <p>Why's it OK for our President to <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/TakeAKnee?src=hash" type="external">#TakeAKnee</a> to Vladimir Putin, but not for a Football player to do so in peaceful protest?</p> <p>&#8212; Ed Krassenstein (@EdKrassen) <a href="https://twitter.com/EdKrassen/status/911666732988743681" type="external">September 23, 2017</a></p> </q>

<q> <p>If you are still on the fence, remember this: Trump attacked Colin Kaepernick with more conviction than he has NAZIS <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/TakeAKnee?src=hash" type="external">#TakeAKnee</a></p> <p>&#8212; The NFL Boycott (@TheNFLBoycott) <a href="https://twitter.com/TheNFLBoycott/status/911663033327300609" type="external">September 23, 2017</a></p> </q> Trump&#8217;s Contradictions 
<p>As is usually the case, Trump has yet again contradicted himself. He&#8217;s gone on record defending white supremacists in the media. In 2011 he also tweeted that when citizens burn the American flag its is a &#8220;respectful way&#8221; to &#8220;voice their displeasure.&#8221;</p> 
<q> <p>Well that's interesting, <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/dotard?src=hash" type="external">#dotard</a> is fine burning the flag but not <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/TakeAKnee?src=hash" type="external">#TakeAKnee</a>?

<p>I wish I could say I was surprised by Trump&#8217;s latest racially/culturally/socially biased antics, but unfortunately folks, I am not.</p>
