Fox & Buddies Host Dragged for Saying the Brutality of Slavery Has By no means Been Downplayed As a result of He Watched ‘Roots’

Kansas City Chiefs fans were harshly criticized Thursday after fans boomed as the team with the Houston Texans cut guns for racial equality as the National Football League season kicked off Thursday.

Here’s some of what people said about booing:

What’s worse than a milquetoast, harmless “moment of oneness”? People who hollow out that milquetoast, harmless “moment of unity”.

If you exploit a moment of unity that has nothing to do with the national anthem, you will never endorse any form of protest and you are just a hateful person

America’s Racists: Always hollow out in demonstrations against racism, never in actual racism.

Kansas City fans who hollow out the moment of silence and then intensely do that “tomahawk chop” are just a * kiss-kiss * to remind us of who the NFL is and how we can’t expect a fraction of it what we got from the NBA 👍 🏽

Yes, so booing during the Show of Unity is a really good example of why players feel so strongly about these causes in the first place.

My hometown has no love for unity? Are you booing unit now? Pic.twitter.com/fAN92iqHJv

Let’s talk about what chiefs are hollowing out

They boo their own players and peacefully demand a more just and equal society

More specifically, they boo at athletes for asking that the police not disproportionately attack black people for violence

What a human boos DAS https://t.co/DJQFSBDhh6

Who is surprised by these fans who boo? It was never about the national anthem. It was never about respect for the flag. It was always all about discomfort about the personal accountability a fan might consider in relation to their role in systemic racism.

NFL fans hollowing out the moment of unity, what do you expect after a decade of overflights and enforced patriotism? Where owners kneel cynically once and then tell players not to kneel again? Giant flags on every field?

Chiefs fans (whose team is named for colored people and many of whom are colored people) kicked off the season with a show of unity for colored people.

Garbage should be seen and not heard.

Chiefs fans hollowing out a moment of unity because we want to be honest that a good part of this country doesn’t want unity

Hollowing out equality is … pretty telling.

They boo a mark of unity. No protest. Not a political statement. A sign of unity. Trump broke America. https://t.co/uajHkWgSV5

Booing a moment of unity is shameful Class A behavior. What an embarrassment. https://t.co/wx3E1ck94p

So-called “fans” at Arrowhead Stadium hollowing out a show of unity are all that is wrong with America.

Want these black players and their white teammates to shut up and perform for you?

THEY DON’T DESERVE IT.pic.twitter.com/tIslU0EFQa

#ChiefsKingdom is more rubbish than I gave them credit for. Hollow out the teams in a moment of unity? Pure classless garbage. pic.twitter.com/sOOYleVa2w

To the fans who boo, you are terrible people. You shouldn’t have a place in this fan base or in football. https://t.co/fFkviDPugi

It’s disgusting to hear all these bastards booing in the stands in the moment of silence and everyone joining the poor. Fuck these people. #HOUvsKC #NFLKickoff

Booing a moment of silence for equality is the trashiest shit I’ve ever heard #NFLkickoff

You don’t boo; They scream “We are racists.”

Now the Senator from Missouri is against Patrick Mahomes, who wants a country that works and shows impressive leadership in our state.

Talk about the class. https://t.co/dpxpGxfhAj
