Kaepernick was compared to Ali and Jackie Robinson [told ya it was the same] 😂, athletes who risked everything to make a difference.

They assert he's being Black-balled.

Meanwhile Fox News sycophants are mad because Kaep was supposedly disrespectful to the Anthem. And that's fine, they have their opinionated opinions.

But, then these same sycophants give the US President a pass who, this Veterans Day, while on foreign soil, regarding Russian interference with our election, stated that he believed the verbal denial of Russia’s Putin. To believe Putin means Trump has to believe Putin’s verbal lie, more than the mountains of evidence provided to him by US and other foreign intelligence services that prove Russia not only interfered with US elections, but elections in numerous other “democracies.” What a shameful insult to the US, its intelligence services, which are populated mostly by veterans.

Colin Kaepernick didn't stand for the anthem because he didn't want to show respect for a Country that (in his view) oppresses a race. It wasn't the anthem he was protesting, it was the Country. If some people feel by not standing for the anthem you are disrespecting the anthem, that is fair and fine. You cannot, you will NOT tell these people they are wrong. For this is their opinion and they are entitled to as such.

I'm going to ignore what you said about the President, because it's most surely misconstrued and I honestly don't give a shit enough to dig through his moronic ramblings to discern you being honest or more hyperbolic bullshit.

Regarding the award. I'm happy for Colin. I hope he gives up playing in the NFL and focuses on his causes. I would really like him to be a voice of movement, instead of a voice of condemnation. People like you who fail to understand the big picture, who fail to see the Mountain while at the bottom looking at the summit are the problem.

Colin Kaepernick risked NOTHING. He willingly opted out of a contract. He chose to sit during the anthem (later would kneel) to get ATTENTION for a cause he feels (rightly so) needs properly addressed.

Muhammad Ali and Jackie Robinson made legitimate risks. If you feel they are to be spoken in the same breath as equals, you proved the point just how clueless you are with your filibuster-like nonsensical ramblings.

** LOCKED **

We've all said our pieces on this and no one is moving on their stance. STOP FUCKING BRINGING IT UP.
