Sir, you've done nothing to be sorry for. You're a great man who has done much for the community in New Orleans.

We fought for the right to protest, this is not disrespectful this is their right!

You made it clear years ago and last night you do not stand with the black community at all. But overnight you've seen the light and changed your stance? Put your money where you mouth is and donate to bail relief or GTFO with your damage control.

You could start by saying kneeling was not disrespectful to the flag.

prevnextI say this with respect and hope you will reflect.
The American flag is supposed to represent freedom and equality for all. The reality is our flag was defiled long ago by freedom and equality for some. Honor your ancestors bravery and sacrifice by demanding equality for all.

How disappointing that a good man can't express an extremely non-controversial opinion without having to apologize for it. He caved and that's too bad.

prevnextMan it’s to late for that. Now that the backlash coming you wanna retrace you’re steps and that ain’t cool we know you meant what you said. 😤

Don’t apologize unless you did wrong. You didn’t.

prevYa lost me at the “I’m sick about the way my comments were perceived.” You’re not sorry you said them; you’re sorry people called you out on them.
