Former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who refused to stand during the playing of the National Anthem, has raised the level of his stupidity and ignorance to new heights by likening the police to "the fugitive slave patrol."
Kaepernick made his comments following the not guilty verdict in the trial of a Minnesota police officer charged with murdering a black motorist during a traffic stop.
The quarterback, who, unsurprisingly is having trouble finding a job, tweeted a picture of a police badge and a badge worn by agents for Southern state governments charged with hunting down fugitive slaves.
A system that perpetually condones the killing of people, without consequence, doesn't need to be revised, it needs to be dismantled! pic.twitter.com/BVVPVZIQyD

The reality is that Kaepernick couldn't even stop Kaepernicking long enough to get into training camp. His abandonment of his protest crusade was nothing more than a political maneuver to soothe antsy NFL owners and placate those who correctly saw him for what he was from the outset.
Yet, none of the owners bit, because the true darkness of what Kaepernick believes was always going to come out. Now he has likened police officers, a huge percentage of which are minorities and an overwhelming percentage of which are not racists, to slave catchers.
Kaepernick thinks he's being blackballed for his political views. He is 100% correct. Football is big business. Hiring a high-profile quarterback even in a backup role who angers thousands of fans to the point that many will boycott games would be stupid business. Kaepernick wants a consequence-free soapbox where he can scream his inanities without fear of punishment. He won't get it if he wants to play again in the NFL.

(Yes, I know the answer!)
he’s gonna be playing for whitey mowing his european dad’s yard come the fall!
So says the millionaire black athlete.
Must still be in “eff me running mode.” Some day his predicament won’t be a surprise.
they play football all over the world!
I heard a guy on radio this weekend, a community organizer, say that the modern municipal police force was a direct outgrowth of these professional slave-trade escapee bounty hunters. Must be some critical race-theory history teaching. Just repulsive.
Apparently he didn’t pay attention in history class and doesn’t realize that Minnesota was not a slave state, it stayed in the Union and its soldiers fought for the North and helped free the slaves.
I thought that, too. I had considered that Kap had learned his lesson, and was just going to shut the %$#@ up.
Nope, goes right out and shoots himself in the foot at the first opportunity.
Forget just being *booed* by fans, NOW if he shows his ugly mug on an NFL field, there will be debris and garbage thrown at him.
His whole team would be hated.
NO NFL team is going to take a chance on that.
Can’t we organize a runaway idiot patrol?
My educated guess is that Colin’s life will not end well for him.
Stick a fork in him he’s done.
But, I thought the same thing about dog killer mikcull vick, number 7 in the kennel bedding department and was proven wrong as an graciateing, beneviolenting, dogooding, anything goes on by with free pass is issueding for some ... everything is good move along nothing’s to see.
another racist bastard, just like 0bama...
So says the idiot on the Democrat porch.
at the gym this morning and i went to the section with ESPN on because i would literally throw up if i had to watch CNN.
ESPN was on about Kaepernick - and blaming his critics. Supposedly he just wants police to not shoot black men. It was not his disrespect for the flag, the military or the police.
Oh well - i guess they want to loose middle america viewers
He disrespects all Americans when makes the false claim of police shooting black men but ignores blacks killing blacks many times more. He should be far more afraid of his fellow blacks than any cop. What he did was racist by claiming white cops kill blacks while ignoring blacks killing blacks.
Former NFL Quarterback Colin Kaepernick Refers To Law Enforcement as ‘The Fugitive Slave Patrol’
Just another self described “victim” that has had all the opportunities but doesn’t realize it.
Nobody asked you Honkey!
