San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who caused a controversy early this season by wearing a T-shirt that contained an image of Fidel Castro, praised Castro’s educational system in a heated conference call with the South Florida media Wednesday.
Kaepernick began a national debate in September when he refused to stand for the national anthem to protest inequality and oppression in America. Kaepernick, whose 49ers play the Dolphins on Sunday, continues to kneel during the anthem.
When pressed about the shirt, Kaepernick first pointed out that Malcolm X also was pictured. Kaepernick said he supports Malcolm X and his willingness to be “open-minded” before forming his own views of the world. Part of that open-mindedness, he said, was meeting with the Cuban leader.

Well, what does Malcolm Ten think of his support? Oh yeah, he sacrificed his life for what he believed, what has Kaepernick ever given up? He also realized (might be another reason he is dead) that the brothers play a role in keeping other brothers on the plantation.
I don’t know if NFL owners and management are supportive, but they do employ many who are likely supportive of his comments. Imho, they are probably hoping that this will all just go away.
Big mistake.
She can't take all the credit. He supplied the stupidity and gullibility.
This clown is just an empty head.His real role is being the very public megaphone of his maniacal socialist racist America hating girlfriend.
Purge that poison from his system and he reverts to being a low talent QB who keeps his opinions and thoughts to himself. Such thoughts, from what I’ve seen, are likely no more deep and complex than “tomorrow I get to poop again.”
I’ll chip in to buy Colon a one way ticket to Cuba.
The moron was sitting out the Anthem long before this year. I’ve posted pictures of years past. It’s only that someone called him out on it this season so he had to think up an excuse. Notice the excuse came weeks later. It’s all a lie.
Good point. The guy obvious feels “emboldened” by the lack of action by the NFL - he’s going to keep digging.
Fidel is a CIA stooge. Castro also has an IMDB page. When Castro was growing up he sent a letter to FDR (I think it was FDR) asking for $20 dollars. He also wanted to be a pitcher for the NY Yankees. When he got a tryout (or was drafted, I can’t remember) he turned it down. Servando Gonzales (PhD in History and Cuban) has studied him for many decades.
Kapernick needs to be better informed about whom he looks up to.
Agreed. Roger Goodell should be fired. Not to mention, this:
Perfect summary with one tiny omission.
Between “Goes to NFL and becomes a high-paid QB”, and “Takes a dump on all of that and wants to be a commies”, I would add, “Gets pussy whipped by Muslim commie girl with Black Lives Matter.”
It is a small detail, but his conversion did come with his seduction by the dark side — recruited and radicalized by a Muslim. If America didn’t have these “moderate Muslims”, he never would have been radicalized.
The “moderate Muslims” are just as big a problem for us as the terrorist are. They are the ones who support them and allow them to justify their jihad.
You left out he is an effing muslim.
Does this nut-job think he would get paid millions of dollars to play a game if he lived in a country run by a communist dictator?
Colon is a Muslim and Commie lover!
He is the perfect poster boy for the NFL/ESPN/Disney/Sponsors of the NFL!
There will be zero NFL at our home this Holiday period.
There has been zero NFL at our home, since the Muslim/Commie Colon started his war against America.
I don't think that Kaepernick is smart enough to dream any of this stuff up himself.
His muzzy GF got him going and he figured that pulling this chit made him more attractive to her.
He'll probably ride this gig until one of her uncles or cousins lops her head off for dishonoring their herd.
That’s spelled “indoctrination”, comrade.
colin is one sick puppy. I bet the family who adopted this loser has many regrets.
I would not use past tense “came” in your last sentence. Use “are” instead.
We have a momentary reprieve with Trump, but the evil forces of darkness are not vanquished. They are plotting their next moves against the U.S. as we write and sit down to Thanksgiving feasts. They are starting up again tomorrow with BLM protests throughout major American cities. They never, ever sleep.
Kaepernick is a mental midget under sway of a radical girlfriend.
Colin is stuck on stupid.

I think it's a question of how much he's under contract for and the salary cap hit they'd take. Plus they literally have no one else at quarterback. Their season is basically over as they only have one win to date. After the season formally concludes, sometime next March or April they'll quietly cut him.
Wow, I never knew that.
Nine game losing streak. All talk, no game.
The miners came in `49,
The whores in `51.
They rolled around upon the floor
And produced the native son.
