Controversy Erupts After NFL Quarterback Converts To Islam and Refuses To Stand for National Anthem
The conservative treehouse ^ | August 27, 2016 | Sundance

A controversy has erupted today because San Francisco 49er’s Quarterback Colin Kaepernick refused to stand up during the playing of the national anthem.

"I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color." ~ Colin Kaepernick

So what exactly is going on. Well, there's a little more to the story than most are willing to accept. The media and the NFL will avoid these discussions like the plague, but what the heck - the Truth Has No Agenda.

During the off-season Colin Kaepernick converted to Islam. Colin Kaepernick is also engaged to Black Lives Matter activist and hip-hop radio personality DJ Nessa Diab. Black Lives Matter as an activist group is synonymous with promotion of authentic Islam.

The guy is a terrible quarterback who probably won't get another job in the NFL after his current contract expires.

He's "jumped the shark" in a desperate attempt to: (1) stay in the news, and/or (2) make his job termination about something other than his abysmal performance.

As his skills deteriorated, his militancy increased.

Useful idiot.

Being used.

There may be a little extra in any hits he takes this fall. I predict NFL fans will end his fb career. He’s not welcome anywhere really.

Go to another country please.
buh bye

Before any of this started up....he was basically a cheap two-star quarterback that the team simply picked up because of marginal nature of quarterbacks around the nation. They can cut the guy and easily find another two-star quarterback out there.

As for his future career? He’ll end up as insurance salesman somewhere.

Well then maybe he should move to [insert any Mideast hellhole here] where he can be any one of the deluded men who think they’re at the top of the food chain because of their religion. Of course his BLM hip-hop fiance won’t be down with that whole Sharia thing I’m thinking.

He’s going to be cut. He’s put himself above the team and his performance doesn’t back up his posturing.

In his case, “NFL” means “not for long”

If he leaves, another one just as repugnant and despicable will take his place. The NFL has morphed from the National Football League into the National Felon and Thug League. I used to follow it. No longer.

Speaks volumes that neither the 49ers nor the NFL have spoken out against this action.

He’d be in big trouble, though, if he refused to wear a pink ribbon or didn’t stand up for the rainbow flag.

Cr@p like this is a primary reason I no longer follow professional sports.

Maybe some 300+lb defensive lineman will pound his skinny, American-hating, Muslim backside into the turf on the first play of the game. Ending his season and his career. That would be some fine entertainment and a classic case of schadenfreude.
