You forgot to add the game will be in San Diego. Guess what's in San Diego area: a MASSIVE military presence with a large US Navy base (including two aircraft carriers based there), MCAS Miramar north of the city and Camp Pendleton in northwestern San Diego County.

Nice going, Mr. Kaepernick. You'll be playing in front of fans--many of whom are in the military service or on civilian employment at the various military bases in the area. You will be LOUDLY given the "Bronx cheer," to say the least.

Remember when RG3 and Kapernick revolutionized the quarterback position for forever?

Oppression of blacks would preclude a black POTUS.

Yes...about that. Could Mr. K please explain just what exactly he is talking about when he uses the word "oppression"?

Voting?
Freedom to work?
Freedom of association?
Freedom to use public education?
Freedom to eat unmolested in a restaurant?
Freedom to marry who they choose?

What exactly is he talking about? Some criminals who couldn't follow the directives of a police officer and got shot for their trouble who just happened to be black? That hardly constitutes oppression.

Obama is just as white as Kaepernick, whose birth mother was white.

“LOOKS AT ME!!! I am so oppressed. I only make 20 million dollars a year.”

Maybe I missed it, but I haven't heard him say anything about spending a dime from the millions he's making each year to help the "oppressed blacks" that he's so concerned about.

Mixed race people raised by whites feeling very aggrieved, even more so than blacks themselves is indeed a pattern that is affecting this country in very negative ways.
