Jane Fonda Honors Kaepernick at ACLU Dinner: ‘Colin, You Are Woke!’
Breitbart News Network ^ | December 4, 2017 | JEROME HUDSON

Posted on 12/04/2017 2:59:04 PM PST by george76

Actress and left-wing activist Jane Fonda poured praise on former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick Sunday night at the ACLU of Southern California’s annual Bill of Rights Dinner.

...

Kaepernick became the face of what many football fans considered an anti-American demonstration when he began to take a knee during the playing of the National Anthem before the start of NFL games

...

Fonda, of course, became the face of opposition to the Vietnam War in 1972 when she visit to North Vietnam at the height of the war, earning the nickname “Hanoi Jane” and infamously denounced American soldiers as “war criminals.”

In October, the actress said, “I don’t regret going to Vietnam.”

...

she agreed with the NFL players’ protest during the National Anthem and said she would not only kneel on one knee but on both knees.

It's no honor to be spoken fondly of by sympathizers for America's enemies.

Hanoi Jane is still an anti-American scum lover.

"Woke". Always a laugh riot when old white liberal women use urban slang to try to sound hip and relevant. It never works.

Jane has been proudly supporting all enemies of the West since 1972.

In my life, I can say that I have consistently hated one person. Jane Fonda!

I did not join the military as a kid. In my draft year drawing, I came in with a number of 352.

The war and how it was mismanaged left many folks with a mindset to avoid participating at all cost. I followed suit.

That does not mean that I didn’t support our troops who were there, or our dedication to winning the war.

The one thing I decided to do, was to defend our men and women who served, and I have tried to do that respectfully, and even fiercely at times over the years.

Jane Fonda violated my adopted support for our troops. I found it an egregious violation of how a person should conduct themselves in times of war. She sided with the enemy to the detriment of our POWs, and even the men on the ground there who had not been captured.

She flattered herself with a cloak of “fighting for the men in our armed forces”, but I never bought that.

She said she did it for all the Vietnamese victims. After the war when the Vietnamese and Cambodian purges took place, Jane’s pie-hole was glued shut.

She never criticized Vietnam or Cambodia for all the senseless killing, a mass genocide.

Cambodia killed off half it’s population. Starting at about 4 million, there were around 2 million when the purge was over.

In such situations the intellectuals were the ones generally liquidated. So the comparative people who Jane sided with in her “anti U.S. years”, were the ones killed in Cambodia.

Teachers, people with degrees, people who served under the previous government, they were “cleansed”.

Not one peep out of Jane and her fellow travelers. Not one!

To do so would have been to frame themselves for the ignorant vile sub-humans they were on the anti-Vietnam War trail.

As I said, I loathe that woman to this day, with a fervor I’ve never felt toward another person.

I don’t wish her harm other than I hope to God she dies before I do, just to savor the moment.

Hey, maybe Kaepernick will get a urinal sticker at all veteran’s organization like Jane Fonda.

Being well aware of Jane Fonda’s history of not quite being an American, this is probably exactly in line with the political correctness she has lived all her life. Never loath to tug on the tailfeathers of the symbol of America, the bald eagle, she now stirs the pot in encouraging people to give up professional football altogether, at least as represented by the NFL.

Hell no, we won’t go. At least not to the NFL games.

If there is such a thing as white privilege, Jane Fonda exemplifies it, ironically while criticizing the rest of American society. What exactly does she think this unemployed football player is fighting against, or for?

If they want to stop senseless killing of blacks, then they need to clean up the inner city, including efforts to stop teenage pregnancy, fatherless households, gang violence, and a lack of role models to motivate minority youth to stay in school and work hard to get ahead.
