Former NFL player and Bears coach Mike Ditka said during the Monday Night Football pregame show that he just doesn’t get all the social injustice the players are protesting, further arguing that everybody in America has opportunity regardless of race or religion.
Via Fox News:
“There has been no oppression in the last 100 years that I know of. Now maybe I’m not watching it as carefully as other people,” Ditka said.
“I don’t care who you are or how much money you make. If you don’t respect our country, then you shouldn’t be in this country playing football. Go to another country and play football. If you had to go to somewhere else and try to play this sport, you wouldn’t have a job,” he said.
“If you can’t respect the flag and this country, then you don’t respect what this is all about. So I would say: Adios.”

Of course the liberals came unhinged.
Mike Ditka spent a lot of his life around Black men.
He’s proof you can be around Black people & still not know much about Them.
Idiot!

“Mike Ditka” is a fossil best left in the stone age he came from. If he can’t see oppression could it be he doesn’t know what it means?
