Colin Kaepernick wears Black Panther Party t-shirt to post-game press conference
MSN News ^ | October 23, 2016 | David Fucillo

Colin Kaepernick wrapped up his second start this season for the San Francisco 49ers, and decided to go with another statement t-shirt at his post-game press conference. Kaepernick sported a Black Panther Party t-shirt. I’ve got a screenshot of his press conference below, and you can view a slightly better shot from Cam Inman below that.

Kaepernick’s National Anthem protest continues, with Eric Reid and Eli Harold regularly joining him on one knee. The discussion of it has quieted down to some extent, but he continues getting a chance to discuss social issues after games and during mid-week availability. There are nine games left for the 49ers, and while Kaepernick might not start all of them, he will continue taking a knee, and likely continue getting a platform to speak to the many social issues facing the country.

When the league realizes that unless it adopts a zero political expression policy, they will bleed to death; financially,

It’s bad for business.

That’s when you get their attention.

I did a search on Colin Kaepernick’s girlfriend and this is one of the images that comes up. I don’t know her personally.

The 9ers have been zilch since Smith was dispatched to the Chiefs.

May never rise again.

Post Game Press Conference:

REPORTER 1: Hey Colin! What is your record for the year?

KAEPERNICK: We’re 1 - 6

REPORTER 2: Hey Colin! What was that record again?

KAEPERNICK: We’re 1 - 6. Check the standings...

REPORTER 3: Hey Colin! What was that record again?

KAEPERNICK: I told you... We’re 1 - 6! Don’t you guys know that already?

REPORTER 4: Oh, we know... It just makes us happy to hear you say it!

Kaperdick is probably getting ready to run for San Fran City Council and then on to Sacramento. Why play football for pay when you get into the political pay for play game?

Lest we forget..Angela Davis supplied these guns. The FBI screwed up the evidence and she walked.

And HERE is the communist who bailed HER out of jail

My only regret is that I could only “not watch” it once.

If given the opportunity, I would “not watch” several times.

If he knew his local history, and the dead by the hands of the Panthers, he might change his wardrobe... but I doubt it.

Come on guys. What about the guys on the Giants that got fined for wearing 9/11 on their uniform multiple times. Black guys.
What about the Steelers, who refuse to kneel because an ex army ranger is on the team.
What about my pathetic Jets, who stink but REFUSE to kneel to a man.
I will not go to games or buy merchandise, I will watch only 2 or 3 games a week.
I’ve been through hell the past 11 years and it will continue as what I have they can’t fix, the games make me forget for three hours. 6 hours a week is still NOTHING to the 20something hours I used to watch.
But I promise this. I watch a game where a guy kneels, and it goes off.

The Dallas Cowboys have stood for the anthem also.
And at the Saints-Hawks game they all stood together.
There are still some good guys in the NFL.
