You don’t have to be PC to respect Kaepernick’s right to sit down during the National Anthem. I’m fine with that.
But, he needs to “be fine” with being kicked out of the NFL. He would never be allowed at a stadium again if I had my way. It’s a free country, and part of that freedom includes firing a$$$holes.
It’s amazing to me the positive reaction from the MSM for this POS and their negative reaction to the Cowboys wanting to respect their murdered Dallas police officers with a simple sticker on their helmets.
Just another reason I am totally off big-time sports.

When Kaepernick puts on that uniform, he is an employee of the 49ers and a representative of the NFL.
He was born in the UK.
I am deeply offended. If we are going to offend people then I have a few chosen words......
To the extent the confused poseur convinces others to harass the Police from coming in to protect the people in inner city neighborhoods, Mr. Kaepernick is going to increase the death rate among law abiding "people of color," with whom he pretends in his verbal strut to identify with. Many others will go on living in fear.
There is no virtue in such an arrogant venting of one's personal confusion.
Mozlems in America who are US citizens hating the USA is not “traditional”, what a sack of crap he is.
I rarely watch ESPN anymore because they’ve become so PC, much like the other media. I like catching up on sports news too but I find it elsewhere nowadays.
As a Hispanic-American, I get so tired of this Black Lives Matter BS. Not that I’m racist, I don’t have a racist bone in my body as I see past skin color and see my fellow Americans by the content of their character, like it should be. I have found over the years that most conservatives see it this way as well.
That being said, what gets so tiring of BLM is it is all based on lies. It’s purposely done to divide race here in America and it is so wrong. The PC media, sports media and Kaepernick have bought in to those lies and spread these lies but the truth is, All American Lives Matter. Even that is being touted as anti-PC to say but so what, it’s true, and truth trumps the left’s lies.
While Kaepernick and his followers have every right to protest, protesting this based on lies only makes them all FOOLS if they fail to understand the lies and deceptions behind BLM.

Kaepernick has the right to protest. But interestingly, all those “talking heads” on ESPN also note we as fans have the right to disagree given our Free Speech freedoms, and that right there could end Kaepernick’s career—and even Kaepernick admits that risk.
The undefeated is the latest obama ass kisser artICle leftard writer they have on GAYSPN. If you say that obama is the dumbest president in American history, you will see the reverse and these leftards will call me un American.
As is our reaction, Foxworth. As is our reaction.
So let me get this straight... They can Mike Ditka or whomever because they voiced an opinion about being for Trump?
Whether one agrees with Kaepernick or not - the NFL better put an end to this ASAP.
I watch the NFL and I pay a lot to go to games. Its becoming increasingly difficult to be a fan, considering everything from the time needed to watch a game, to the price of tix, food and parking, to stadium security.
If they become infected with politics too - then I am absolutely done with the NFL.
Ingrates like Kap need to go live in another country—any country—for a while and see how lucky they and everyone else born here is.
that Ahole can make an ass of himself protesting how terribly opporessed he is with his $100+ million contract, if he wishes
and I can protest by not buying tickets to his children’s games
Perhaps he should adopt an unwanted multi-racial child? Or perhaps a white child?
Don Richardson, in "Peace Child", writes about the Sawi people of New Guinea. To establish peace with a warring neighbor tribe, they would exchange the chief's son for the son of the chief of the warring tribe.
As long as both sons lived and prospered, peace reigned between the tribes. Richardson explained the message of the Gospel to these tribes by saying that Jesus was God's Peace Child to rebellious mankind.
“Kaepernick is having a mental meltdown. He is washed up and is about to be cut, which leaves him nothing in a league without guaranteed contracts. He is misdirecting his anger and will tell himself he is being cut because of his protest, which is not true. I would be so embarrassed to be his parent and watch him do this.”
I’m wondering if this wasn’t done on purpose because if the 49’ers cut Kaepernick, now he can scream racism. Just a thought.
Correct. Vote with your FEET
