A video featuring Colin Kaepernick has sparked controversy at an elementary school within the Peninsula School District in Gig Harbor, Washington.

The issue stems from a decision by Gig Harbor’s Discovery Elementary to post online materials for students relating to the Black Lives Matter movement.

The materials in question, aimed at second-graders, were reportedly made available on students’ virtual classroom accounts.

One of the videos in question featured former NFL quarterback, Colin Kaepernick.

The first thing the kids need to know is the BLM is a black supremecy movement.

Maybe they should just create a BLM Youth organization with snazzy uniforms and banners and stuff.

The article says that 26 teams came to a tryout to evaluate Colin Kaepernick. IIRC, Kaepernick did not show up. Please correct me if that is wrong.

To present disrespect for the flag, as opposed to, say, pledging allegiance, to 2nd graders they can simply try to find where, in the consti, can we see systemic or any kind of racism.

They cannot.

You comment made me think: our 4-year-old granddaughter started pre-K at her church last week.

I asked her about what kind of things they are learning. One of the things on her list, she said: “the pledge”.

The pledge. Yes.

The NFL is doing the opposite.

What is the disconnect? This is unacceptable. What are Americans not getting?

Why is anyone still in the stands at the stadium?

Did they pledge allegiance to the flag or no?

Do people have the mistaken idea that defending the flag the responsibility of only the military?

It is not.

The military is not a group of mercenaries

The teacher in this situation is seditious and leading minor children in the same

So is the principal, the school board and the parents

“Distance learning” is exposing parents by videoconference to the propaganda kids are fed every day behind classroom walls.
