Colin Kaepernick protests the Anthem

[miguel]

I think it is funny he kinda talks like a hillbilly. #BLMREDNECK

 

[Alpo]

Why? I don't agree, but I'd like to know the reasoning, in case there's something I haven't thought of or don't know.

I think it lessens the impact to be associated with a commercial spectacle. World Series? OK. 162 ball games per year? Nah. Play America the Beautiful or some other song.

I won't say I get a tear in me good eye every time the Anthem is played, but I think it has more meaning than the sport attempting to use it. They aren't selling patriotism. They are selling hot dogs.

It means something in school. It means something on a parade ground. It isn't as "meaningful" when it stands between a sport fan with a blue painted face with a white horseshoe on it or an orange bronco fan naked in a barrel and the kickoff.

Agreed, he is a douchebag!

Let's tell the WHOLE truth.


KC is an idiot douchebag....

We prefer the term "Appalachian American"....

Maybe he's taken too many hits on the head. I guarantee this: if he gets to play again, he's gonna take some awful hits. His own line might move out of the way....

Him and Tebow end up in a bar somewhere talking about the good ole days

Now he's just being a ****, by intentionally pissing people off. He wants a trade. Someone should start a go fund me page to pay for a plane ticket out of the country. I'll ponder anyone's political opinions, but when you start vomiting up foreign comparisons, my consideration ends there.

He has started a firestorm.
Was that his original intentions.
Has this just exploded in his face.
How could anyone see this ending well.
He is taking a serious a$$ kicking.

 

[Alpo]

Stop his paycheck. Give him a box of Cohibas instead.

Colin Kaepernick's Mother: He's Brought Shame To Family | The Daily Caller

Birth mother speaks out against the son she gave up for adoption. Classy.

Well that's plain dumb in one way or another; the type of dumb depending on it it was intentional. As he sounds reasonably intelligent, I'm guessing it was intentional.

But ...am I the only one who can't actually tell what's on the shirt?

 

[Woobie]

I'm having trouble seeing how this is helping the cause. I would be distancing myself from him as quickly as possible right now. He looks like a whiny brat.

Maybe you don't consider it shame, but most patriotic Americans would.

I cannot get the article to open, so in the interest of disclosure I have not read it.

If he is wearing a Castro shirt in support of "black lives matter", then I commend him for being honest about what is "black lives matter". (See the original post. https://www.indianagunowners.com/fo...iscussion/417169-what-black-lives-matter.html. )


What an outstanding useful idiot.
