Sorry for them, but that doesn't make it right. They(players) are getting paid big money to entertain us, not worry about what controversial agenda is being given at half time. I will bet that the sponsors did NOT know that the entertainment was going to be racial and radical. I have no use for special treatment of any ethnic group. Blacks exploit any little empathy and decent treatment they receive. Treating someone with equal respect is one thing, but to give special treatment is also discrimination. I am not going to sit around and allow someone to disparage me when my family had nothing to do with slights perceived by the blacks, or Hispanics, or Muslims. If they want to be treated fairly and equally, then they should blend in and act equally normal. I don't bend my American standards for foreign or ethnic cultures. They are here, in America and need to realize that this is a country with it's own culture. Accept it or not, but don't try to tell us that we HAVE to recognize their culture. I see nothing wrong with telling them all that if they don't like it here, then find someplace else that better conforms to their standards and whims. Most likely, they won't find another land that is as patient with them as we are.
