Recently, several members of a cheerleading squad in Atlanta “took a knee” while the national anthem was played during a hometown football game. However, their blatant show of disrespect was short-lived. Their no-nonsense coach, who was fed-up with these demonstrations which have been sweeping the nation, decided to take something of theirs to teach them a hard lesson.

Across the country, athletes have been kneeling during the national anthem in solidarity with former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who first began the practice during football season in 2016 to protest police brutality and racial injustice. Of course, the hypocrisy could not be more glaring.
Kaepernick and his ilk make more money in one year than most white people make in their entire lifetimes, so he should be the last person lecturing us on equality. Still, there are those who haven’t thought the matter through any more than Kaepernick has, and they now choose to kneel during the anthem, as well.

Unfortunately for these ungrateful little crybabies, though, the school was having none of it. The protesting cheerleaders have been removed from the field going forward, so they no longer have the option of making the football field their stage for a misguided social justice demonstration.
One of the latest displays of defiance was at a Kennesaw State University football game where five of the cheerleaders took a knee during the national anthem at their game against North Greenville University on Sept. 30.

At their next game on Oct. 7, against Texas Southern, the cheerleaders were not on the field until after the national anthem.

Good for the school! If these cheerleaders want to protest, they’re going to have to do it somewhere else, because their platform was just taken away. They’ve effectively been put in timeout like the toddlers they are.
“The decision…. is part of a number of changes that have been made by a new Athletics administration each game as we continue to refine and enhance the gameday atmosphere for our fans,” said a spokesperson for Kennesaw State University. “Some of those other changes have included painting the KS logo at midfield for the first time, the addition of metal detectors at gates to expedite fan entry, and music/PA system changes to have more loud speakers by the student section.”
Well, I’m sure the new logo and loudspeakers are a nice addition, but certainly, the best change the school implemented was taking away these cheerleaders’ chance to act like a bunch of spoiled brats. Fans don’t come to games to see a social justice presentation, they come to watch football. It’s nice to see somebody treating these disrespectful little girls like the toddlers they are. What do you do when a toddler throws a tantrum? You put them in time out.

Donald Trump is set to reverse an order by former President Barack Obama to close Guantanamo Bay, it has been claimed. The notorious military prison holds suspected terrorists but has attracted fierce criticism from human rights groups. During his time in office, President Obama signed an executive order for Guantanamo to be closed "as soon as practicable". In practice, he wasn't able to end the facility entirely due to opposition from US Congress. But hundreds of prisoners were moved to the mainland and just 41 remain. During his presidential campaign, Donald Trump made clear his support for Guantanamo and said he wanted to "load it up with bad dudes". According to Politico, he now intends to come good on that promise and will start by signing an executive order reversing the Obama mandate. He is expected to make the announcement during the State of the Union address on Tuesday or perhaps before, the reports claim.
The recent Southwest Airlines tragedy that claimed the life of a woman who was sucked through an aircraft window also showed up a worrying lack of knowledge about basic safety procedures. An image shared online by Marty Martinez, a passenger on board flight 1380 from New York to Dallas, shows him and his fellow passengers wearing oxygen masks, which dropped down after one of the jet’s engines blew. Oxygen masks should be placed over the nose and mouth (Facebook/Marty Martinez ) However, as travel expert and former flight attendant Bobby Laurie pointed out on social media, none of the people in the picture are wearing their masks correctly. He tweeted : “PEOPLE: Listen to your flight attendants! ALMOST EVERYONE in this photo from @SouthwestAir #SWA1380 today is wearing their mask WRONG. Put down the phone, stop with the selfies and LISTEN. **Cover your NOSE AND MOUTH.” In the photo, the three passengers clearly shown only have the mask over their mouths,
The continuous level-headed discussion of whether high-ranking government officials should be forced to undergo drug testing has quite recently been exposed. A few individuals from Congress were quite recently uncovered for being on a reiteration of mind-altering medications which a pharmacist in Washington, D.C’s. top legislators quite recently uncovered subsequent to feeling guilty about a portion of the medicines he had been giving these authorities for months. He feels that genuine conditions these endorsed meds are to treat can and do have some especially condemning impacts on the sorts of choices these Congress individuals are depended to make. Many lower-level government workers are legitimately compelled to undergo random drug testing for the undeniable reason for being in a data touchy position. Since these individuals should be clear personality and judgment just to deal with paperwork and procedures, shouldn’t the individuals who settle on the huge choices mu
