Hey Colin Kaepernick, I’d like to introduce you to a few men.
Meet Sgt. William Carney of the 54th Massachusetts Colored Infantry who was among the brave men attacking Fort Wagner in South Carolina during the Civil War. Carney saw the color bearer ahead of him struck down by Confederate bullets. Already injured, Carney would not let the flag fall to the ground, and he charged forward directly into enemy fire to retrieve it.

You are not worthy of it.
Bump for later.
Well said and so very true.
Strongest symbol for good in history?

Your nation respectED you, you fool.
Everybody has to make a stupid statement these days.
Ignorami all.
This has nothing to do with the National Anthem, the flag, or treatment of blacks. The knothead wants to be traded, and to now, the 49ers have refused. He’s had an awful preseason; good chance management will cut him soon. Then he can sit on his couch while the anthem is played, as it’s unlikely another team will take a chance on the failing, ungrateful SOB.
I look at that guy and I see the dead eyes, the Muslim-ish beard, the obvious hatred of America. I read that he had converted to izlum. This isn’t about trying to get traded. This is genuine hate for America. It wouldn’t shock me if he went SJS over this.
I could respect what Mr. Kaepernick was doing (while disagreeing with him) if I had any inkling that he was actually sincere in his beliefs. But I suspect he is a dilettante.
Reportedly his new girlfriend/fiance (not sure which) is Muslim and/or deeply involved in leftist politics. So much of his motivation is probably to impress her. Not the first or last time a dude does stupid things for a woman.
Additionally, he is likely trying to draw attention from his increasingly poor on-field performance. Any move against him would now be political, not because his last two seasons have been profoundly disappointing.
Let your displeasure be known

This idiot can sit in the locker room until after the National Anthem is played. From the looks of his injury record he’s be trying to find a non NFL job next year anyway. To many bad long term injuries.
Kaepernick is done. There is no base of fans that is more patriotic than those of the NFL.
He’s a fading talent with a huge contract based on one breakout year. I bet he is benched—this is his last year, unless there is a medical issue—and basically given away, if anyone will have him.
Kaepernick is a punk whose buddy is Dr. (PHD) Harry Edwards, a black activist. Edwards teaches sociology at UC Berkley. I looked the Dr up and the school’s basic/intro to sociology course. It is all about how the poor blacks, Latinos, Arabs, and everyone in America except Caucasians is discriminated against. This crap is sick and I am damn tired of it. I watched idiots like Colin Powel get promoted all because of skin color. Look at the female Generals today to include Lesbians. Obama goes to Harvard on AA. These bastards think they are owed. My family on both sides has been in America since before the American Revolution. I had Italian,Polish and Greek pals growing up who never thought they were owed. One earned his appointment to West Point. They were real immigrants who came here to better themselves and their families-not come here to have anchor babies and get freebies.
Thanks, did not know. If he’s become a Mohammedan under the influence of a Muzzie girlfriend, that explains a lot. Like the Ditzy Chicks marrying Limeys and then suddenly hating America. Exposes the many weak minds in entertainment and sports.
That flag does not represent oppression, it represents protection from oppression. Spoiled, rich, insulated a$$ holes like the Missouri multi millionaire student and you Colin are not worthy of its protections and are free to leave at any time.
Is it perfect; definitely not but if anyone knows of one better, I invite them to leave and immigrate to it - today!
I think it's because the feces of pigs, dogs, & monkeys are upon his Snackbar, and his pedoprophet, and their moonrock godlette wannabe...
