When football players started taking knees, even the President of the United States used his pulpit to publicly shame them for daring to speak out against innocent minorities getting beaten and killed by cops. At one point the hatred for police accountability activism became so overwhelming that so-called conservatives took to lighting their shoes on fire after Nike ran an ad with outspoken police brutality advocate Collin Kaepernick.
