As much as I detest Kapernick, I can’t blame his parents for supporting him. They are his parents. They love him. Supporting and agreeing with a child isn’t the same, even though it appears so in this matter.

So parents should support and agree with an adult child who is making a statement against their country as a whole and which is helping to divide the citizens of the country? The division has recently cost police officers and innocent citizens their lives, but the parents should encourage their son’s unpatriotic “freedom of speech” action to continue anyway?

I would think any agitator’s families who know right from wrong would side with being right not join the wrong. What you say is ok is akin to other families who’s children join ISIS or such acts against the unity and health of the USofA. Colin’s approach is just more subtle but just as vicious and deadly.

Is a group of people in a country more important than the country as a whole?

Our founders fought for this country created by and blessed by God, at loss to and of their families and property and other self desires or livelihood interests.

Jesus and the bible teach us to stand for what is right (in God’s word) not just what our mind tells us to believe. Minds can be easily deceived.

I have relatives raising adopted children of another race and doing the same foolish things as the Kapernick’s. Racial groups mean nothing to God so Colin is in the wrong. Many whites and blacks perpetuate the issue due to their own twisted emotion based thinking and reasoning. God’s family is made up of any and all who choose to join Him. He doesn’t look at skin color or past deeds or education levels, where you were born or grew up, etc
