Former National Football League (NFL) quarterback Colin Kaepernick led the charge against police brutality, ultimately paving the way for the Black Lives Matter movement and the anti-law enforcement sentiment that's plaguing our nation. Apparently that wasn't enough for the former football star. He is now leading a movement called "Abolition for the People," which has the ultimate goal of eliminating police departments and prisons across the United States.
Kaepernick partnered with LEVEL and Medium to produce a series of articles about ending the debate over policing in our country.
From the announcement:
Over the next four weeks, the project will publish 30 stories from organizers, political prisoners, scholars, and advocates — all of which point to the crucial conclusion that policing and prisons do not serve as catch-all solutions for the issues and people the state deems social problems.
Not only do police and prisons fail to make us safer, but reform has only strengthened their most toxic ingrained practices. The only answer is abolition, a full dismantling of the carceral state and the institutions that support it. Instead, we need to invest in a future that puts justice and the needs of the community first. A future that, as Colin Kaepernick himself says in his introductory essay, makes us safer, healthier, and truly free.

Lock him up...
Doomed to fail!
This A$$hole’s 15 minutes were up 2 years ago!
Just go away you untalented creep!
Underneath all of that huge Afro, there is a teeny little head. There is no room in that teeny head for much of a brain. Follow this man at your peril.
Check what id happening to the NFL and NBA!
I’m almost on board with this. When law enforcement is non-existent, we can hunt down animals like Kaepernick and shoot them with no fear of the ramifications.
This is all an effort to have non enforcement of the drug laws and human trafficking.
Check what IS happening to the NFL and NBA! sorry folks.
Police "reform" means dismantling and defunding police departments.
Prison "reform" means emptying prisons.
Bail "reform" means eliminating bail.
I'm seeing it over and over here in California. In their language, reform doesn't mean make it better. It means GET RID OF IT.
What a beautiful word!
Your the word should be hear the word.
Colin should have an epiphany like Richard Pryor:
Richard Pryor : “Thank *God* we got penitentiaries! I asked a dude - I said, “Why did you kill everybody in the house?” The guy said, “They was home!”
No Law and Order?
Someone breaks his knee with a baseball bat, who does he call?
Without Law and Order it is back to caves
That man probably has thought disorder...probably the reason for his decline as a quarterback and why no one will hire him.
They can take Colin and Chelsea and moochelle and young miss mcShame and a few dozen more and .... them
KaperStink should be forced to live in the first city dumb enough to follow his plan. Of course he will stay in his safe white neighborhood instead of the lawless city he wants to create. His clown hair fits him perfectly. Now he just needs to ad the rainbow 🌈 colors.
As the meme goes, they don’t want to get rid of the police, they want to be the police.
He’s about to be sacked in the end zone of life.
Besides the tiny brain, unfortunately he played without his helmet once too often.
That cool, then I’ll just shoot every M-Fer I see. Nobody to arrest me.
