A controversy has erupted today because San Francisco 49ers Quarterback Colin Kaepernick refused to stand up during the playing of the national anthem.
"I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color." ~ Colin Kaepernick
So what exactly is going on. Well, there's a little more to the story than most are willing to accept. The media and the NFL will avoid these discussions like the plague, but what the heck - the Truth Has No Agenda.
During the off-season Colin Kaepernick converted to Islam. Colin Kaepernick is also engaged to Black Lives Matter activist and hip-hop radio personality DJ Nessa Diab. Black Lives Matter as an activist group is synonymous with promotion of authentic Islam.

Eff You, CK.
Maybe he should look around and see most of the players are black , and are making millions.
So much for a country which oppresses blacks.
This has to do with him being disrespectful on purpose and being engaged to a racist ,black lives activist.
Never watch the NFL,nor super bowl, as they are just a bunch of overpaid, egotistical big heads.
nope the TV media never mentioned that little aspect , or who he is dating.
Salivating over seeing a Jack Youngblood or Howie Long type ring Kaepernick’s bell on a busted play...
He is now officially embraced bigotry....
The question is will he stand for the Canadian national anthem when he is in the CFL next year
Awaiting the inevitable Trump tweet, and the uproar that is sure to follow.
I respect the newly converted goat humpers freedom of speech. Hope he respects mine. Piss be upon him.
So he’s a muslim now? Dear God, the ruin everything don’t they?
Now that he’s a Muslim, he should support all aspects of Sharia law, including those that call for the slaughter of gays.
That should go over well in SF.
He’s even more stupid than I thought. Muslims are the slave traders.
Ironically, he is more white than George Zimmerman.
Haven’t checked the Texans schedule but I would love to see J.J. Watt pound his miserable ass.
Wonder how the butt boys on San Fran like their muzzie QB now?
Man, if I were a defensive guard or tackle playing against the 49ers with Kaepernick as quarterback, I would draw a yellow flag for roughing the passer or unnecessary roughness every time I got to him.

Sure enough, never fails. A few Freepers follow a story that’s clearly related to the NFL, go out of their way to boast to us that they no longer follow the NFL.
The 49’s defended him saying they respect an “individual’s” right to... We all know what would have happened if he had criticized BLM for what it is, look at all the people who have lost their jobs for criticizing it on Facebook.
“converts to Islam”
That part seemed to be omitted from most of the related threads posted previously.
Wonder why?
