‘Sacrifice’ is a big word, meaning ‘to give up something that is valuable to you in order to help another person’.

‘Everything’ is an even bigger word, meaning ‘all that exists’.

So to sacrifice everything is a major undertaking.

Until today, I believed Kaepernick had indeed sacrificed everything in his professional life to make a stand for what be believes in – which is shining a light on racial injustice in America and police violence against African-Americans.

He’s a piece of crap. Since he hates this country, he should be sent to somalia, to live.

Nike, at the forefront of social justice!

Nike social justice business plan:

  1. Take $5 worth of materials
  2. Pay third world coolies 50 cents per hour to manufacturer.
  3. Sell shoes for $200 per pair to uneducated poverty stricken ghetto dwellers.
  4. PROFIT!

KVUE.com, the CBS station in uber lib in Austin, TX said this morning their poll on this Nike Crappernick story and it would run until noon. Of course, right after announcing the high negative votes, it was nowhere to be found on their site.
