CK has made some awful choices of late. I do understand the BLM movement. It has some valid points, whether we like to admit it or not. I love this country and its people. I am happy and proud to respect our flag. However, I firmly believe that it is important to speak out about wrongs and injustices. While I wish CK would find another way to protest, I respect his right to do so and his willingness to take the heat. (And I still think most of this is more of a publicity stunt that standing up -- or kneeling in his case -- for your beliefs.)

For those who have commented that he should use his money to help inner city kids, he has. He just recently announced a $1M donation to that cause. He participates in several charitable functions in the Bay Area and has donated a great deal of his time and money to several different children's causes. He may be misguided and making bad choices but do give him credit where due.
