Kaepernick Posts Message Cheering Violent Rioting, Denouncing Civility In Response To George Floyd Death
Daily Wire ^ | 5/28/20 | Amanda Prestigiacomo

On Thursday, former San Francisco quarterback and multi-millionaire racial activist Colin Kaepernick posted a message in support of violent rioting in Minneapolis following the death of George Floyd, a black man who died after an officer knelt on his neck during his arrest, as shown in a viral video.

According to Kaepernick, “civility” is leading to “death,” which means “the only logical reaction” is to “revolt.”

“When civility leads to death, revolting is the only logical reaction,” Kaepernick posted to Twitter on Thursday.

“The cries for peace will rain down, and when they do, they will land on deaf ears, because your violence has brought this resistance,” he wrote. “We have the right to fight back!”

The former NFLer added, “Rest in Power George Floyd.”

The now-viral video clip of Floyd’s arrest shows the 46-year-old telling officers he can’t breath and begging the cop kneeling on his neck to stop before he falls unconscious. “Officer Derek Chauvin was identified as the officer who knelt on Floyd’s neck outside Cup Foods on Chicago Avenue and East 38th Street,” The Daily Wire reported Tuesday.

In the video, a bystander can be heard telling the officers, “He’s not even resisting arrest right now, bro. You’re f***ing stopping his breathing right now, you think that’s cool?”

So Kaepernick is revolting. What else is new?

This is stunning to me, to think that someone prominent is actually in favor of rioting.

Burn baby burn? Is that where we are?

What would Kaepernick think if they went to burn down his house,and all for the cause of course?

Crapernick? Will live to old age in comfort.

He’ll be a B list “activist” for decades. Hanging around like herpes, waiting to flame up from time to time.

George Floyd was a Christian, doubt he would approve of Knappy’s call for violence

My husband thinks they should not be called rioters. He thinks they should be called revolutionaries and have to take a stand and say what their goals are, tell us what they want. Force them to organize. What do they want? When will it be done? What’s their end game?

Don’t know about their end game. But, lately been seeing news spots about food deserts in black neighborhoods. Cant buy fresh foods, produce, fruit and such. Seems to me burning down stores in ones own neighborhood does nothing to correct the problem.....

When I see Colin K I have to remember the 60s saying
“Get a haircut”

If he ever did things would fall out.
“Damn. There’s the return receipt for that stupid TV. I had to take the lowest recent sale price for my return. And the lost phone number note for that guy who kept flirting with me at the bar.”
