You ain't even worth it. You're nothing, nobody, already forgotten.
Just in case you're lurking.
Dear Mr Bomberger: Stop wasting your time. He has been seduced by the lunatic left, has forsaken all close to him and gone his own way. So be it.
This is a well-stated letter.
Thanks for posting Kaslin, that was a good essay. Unfortunately, in Kaepernick’s case it’s more a matter of casting pearls before swine.
Recently penned a letter to my Senator Merkely D Oregon. I sent him his quote about not losing your health insurance or doctor when ACA is passed. We are losing our insurance company after 22 years with them, going from $460 in 2009 to $1800 a month next year. I asked him why the only choice we are allowed to make by the democrats is choice to kill our innocent babies in the womb. I asked, why can't I chose my health insurance coverage? I am mandated to carry maternity care at 63, rehab care and mental illness care, don't need any of them.
To a real estate customer, who was complaining how Oregonians all "slaughter our trees". I corrected him and said no Oregonions slaughter their unborn children in the womb, we harvest our trees!"
Adopted here by a WWII veteran. Intense love of country, flag and anthem. Anyone with a different point of view than the above is a traitor.
A little less talk, and a lot more action. I would have unmeasured admiration for Kaepernick if he were to go to Mexico to a major athletic event and kneel when they play/sing their national anthem. Man up and show us that you would do that and you’ll have a convert here.
Salute to Ryan.
The school/pledge analogy is way off. As a student in (public?) school you are not an employee. A member of a sports team IS, hence the uniform. They can feel free to protest whatever they want on their own time.
Dear Ryan Bomberger,
Your words are so full of light, warmth, and goodness, as given to you by our Father God.
You fully know that Kap is mired in darkness and bitterness, so the light you want to show him will be too blinding for him right now.
But thank you for sowing the good seed in his dark soul. May it someday bear fruit and save Kap from his current destructive path.
IMO, the NFL is playing with fire on this anthem issue. In essence, the employees are engaging in political protests in the workplace. They should be fined, suspended or kicked out of the league. The NFL is an entertainment business. Political protests will most assuredly hurt that business.
If they don’t crack down on this, what will be next? Players coming out on the field with their danglies swinging to protest the killing of Anaconda’s in the Amazon?
The author clearly put a lot of effort into this.
It’d be far simpler just to write:
Dear Kaepernick -
You’re an *sshole.
Not just this idiot. Other America-hating racists are joining in.
Their man, bammy, has shown nothing but hate for this country in his 8 years in power. Now they long for getting hillary into the White House so she can continue inflicting damage on the country that she hates.
For a look at the homicide statistics, go here:
The letter writer asks Kaepernick to become a factivist. Kaepernick has already proven that the truth is not in him and facts don’t matter. Colin’s citations of BLM BS proves that he has swallowed the lies and acts to further those lies in the media.
This story still holds true today, because Something’s Never Change;
“Tommy” is short for “Tommy Atkins” equivalent to our “G.I. Joe” The Gallery refers to the highest point in the Balcony of the theatre, the Stalls are the Best seats in the House.
Tommy I went into a public-’ouse to get a pint o’beer, The publican ‘e up an’ sez, “We serve no red-coats here.” The girls be’ind the bar they laughed an’ giggled fit to die, I outs into the street again an’ to myself sez I:
O it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Tommy, go away”; But it’s ``Thank you, Mister Atkins,’’ when the band begins to play, The band begins to play, my boys, the band begins to play, O it’s ``Thank you, Mr. Atkins,’’ when the band begins to play.
I went into a theatre as sober as could be, They gave a drunk civilian room, but ‘adn’t none for me; They sent me to the gallery or round the music-’alls, But when it comes to fightin’, Lord! they’ll shove me in the stalls!
For it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Tommy, wait outside”; But it’s “Special train for Atkins” when the trooper’s on the tide, The troopship’s on the tide, my boys, the troopship’s on the tide, O it’s “Special train for Atkins” when the trooper’s on the tide.
Yes, makin’ mock o’ uniforms that guard you while you sleep Is cheaper than them uniforms, an’ they’re starvation cheap; An’ hustlin’ drunken soldiers when they’re goin’ large a bit Is five times better business than paradin’ in full kit.
Then it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Tommy how’s yer soul?” But it’s “Thin red line of ‘eroes” when the drums begin to roll, The drums begin to roll, my boys, the drums begin to roll, O it’s “Thin red line of ‘eroes” when the drums begin to roll.
We aren’t no thin red ‘eroes, nor we aren’t no blackguards too, But single men in barricks, most remarkable like you; An’ if sometimes our conduck isn’t all your fancy paints: Why, single men in barricks don’t grow into plaster saints;
While it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Tommy, fall be’ind,” But it’s “Please to walk in front, sir,” when there’s trouble in the wind, There’s trouble in the wind, my boys, there’s trouble in the wind, O it’s “Please to walk in front, sir,” when there’s trouble in the wind.
You talk o’ better food for us, an’ schools, an’ fires an’ all: We’ll wait for extry rations if you treat us rational. Don’t mess about the cook-room slops, but prove it to our face The Widow’s Uniform is not the soldier-man’s disgrace.
For it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Chuck him out, the brute!” But it’s “Saviour of ‘is country,” when the guns begin to shoot; An’ it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ anything you please; But Tommy ain’t a bloomin’ fool - you bet that Tommy sees!

Dear Colin, the Niners sure look a lot better with you on the bench. You should just go home now.
Just one simple question for Kaepernick: “How will you know when this nation is good enough to deserve your respect?”
