Stop the one knee bollox and donate money from their wages to actually fight racism in their local communitys.
Going down on s knee for a few seconds is not going to change anyone’s life.

I agree with this actually Sheriff; I find the signals, salutes, symbols, chants and mantras utterly meaningless if they're being done in lieu of more meaningful words and actions. In fact, it plays into something else that I'm inherently against (tribal behaviours, group thinking, collectivism) and thus its not something I'd ever do. I wouldn't boo it, though. That's just more of the same to be honest.
That said, football fans never STOP singing, chanting and group gesturing so it's a bit hypocritical in this case, and I imagine most of them are booing because they don't like the message, rather than the method.
