For the 18000th time his protest isn't about the flag. Look up the story of why Colin Kaepernick decided to kneel. Nate Boyer, Army Ranger suggested he do so. 4 years ago, if people had paid attention, intead of mocking him and making this an unnecessary Culture War, we would not be here with more dead African Americans at the hands of police.

Then dont do it while the rest of us honor those who actually sacrificed.
kaperneck is a tool.He became an "activist" when he got benched, and his girlfriend told him he was black.

I had been a member of American Outlaws since 2012. I just cancelled my membership. I am a veteran and cannot support the decision to allow kneeling during the national anthem. If you want to protest fine.. wear an armband, fly a flag, wear a shirt, talk to the press, I don't care, but to seek a spotlight during the time reserved for honoring those who died while so you can protest I cannot abide. NFL, MLS, NWSL, MLB... do whatever your employer allows but while you are representing your country and wearing that flag on your uniform you respect the anthem and the flag.

Fun Fact - Did you know the very first medal of honor won by an African American was given to Army Sgt. William H. Carney during assault on Ft Wagner as shown in the movie Glory.

On July 18, 1863, the soldiers of Carney's regiment led the charge on Fort Wagner. During the battle, the unit's color guard was shot. Carney, who was just a few feet away, saw the dying man stumble, and he scrambled to catch the falling flag.

Despite suffering several serious gunshot wounds himself, Carney kept the symbol of the Union held high as he crawled up the hill to the walls of Fort Wagner, urging his fellow troops to follow him. He planted the flag in the sand at the base of the fort and held it upright until his near-lifeless body was rescued.

Even then, though, he didn't give it up. Many witnesses said Carney refused to give the flag to his rescuers, holding onto it tighter until, with assistance, he made it to the Union's temporary barracks.

I wonder how he would view this form of protest.

What a fat pitch.
You mentioned he was African American? So you pretty much know how would view this protest. Sounds like he'd be on the front lines, fighting for the USA and freedom against the weirdos (in the substantial minority) who would try to prevent it.
You forget that the people on your side fought against the USA.
LOLOL!!!

I didn't say I don't have ideas about a viable solution. I said I didn't have an idea about an alternative form of protest that would have drawn more immediate attention to police brutality. So on that basis I acknowledge that Kaepernick's idea was better than my no idea, but it still didn't work. Do you think the events of the last two weeks would have been different without Kaepernick? I don't.

Sure they would have been different. The NFL admitting it was wrong is important. US Soccer admitting it was wrong is important. Drew Brees admitting he was wrong and disappointing racist douches who thought he was on their side is a big deal. There are many people who did not take him seriously at the time who do now. He caused many people to consider brutality for the first time and even if they didn’t believe it was a real problem at the time, they at least started paying attention.

But for Kaepernick, there would be many people who are just starting the process of thinking about police brutality today. And many of them who are seeing the recent events would not be moved today had they not had that history if thinking about systemic discrimination and police brutality to look beyond the looting.

Kaepernick was also important to show people racist douches in their full splendor. The mere mention of Kaepernick causes people to draw genitals on Michelle Obama and post them in the Internet. Although there’s no helping them, it does impact people who see racists for who they are. When those racists whine about violence and demand protests should be peaceful, but then turn around and mock those who do exactly that, even better to help point out why smart people don’t want to align with their way of thinking.

Kaepernick has not impacted you, but that hardly means he has had no impact. Many people have come around to his way of thinking since he first drew attention to the issue. Clearly he didn’t act or make change to your satisfaction, but you haven’t done or proposed s**t. The fact that you can’t stop whining about something that imposes nothing on you, and which was done for a purpose that means little or nothing to you, means that your opinion on how nest to draw attention to police brutality also means nothing. Shoot, the mere fact that people still can’t stop talking about Kaepernick years later by itself proves he has made an impact.

People who care are going to keep doing things you don’t like. You’ll get kneelers, burned down Wendy’s, broken windows and probably the occasional assassinated cop. It doesn’t matter how much you whine. It doesn’t matter how much people ruin your life by kneeling during the anthem. People who think they’re the victim because someone is ruining SportsCenter for them by generating publicity by peacefully protesting the actual murders of people during the anthem can really go f**k themselves. Their whining is obviously even less effective than they Kaepernick’s kneeling.
 
Here's why BLM can shove it straight up their asses. Look at the first paragraph. "they racially profiled a man." No, you fucking imbecile, a man on half a dozen drugs tried to pass counterfeit money and was caught. Un-fucking-believable. The lack of accountability is stunning.

Kaepertrash is a phony piece of shit. Here are some facts about your hero:

1. Abandoned by his black father at birth.
2. Adopted by a white, middle class family.
3. Grew up in a culturally diverse community of mostly agriculture.
4. Turned down a professional baseball contract in high school.
5. Received a football scholarship in college.
6. Said and did NOTHING for the black community when he was starting and in the Super Bowl.
7. Inherited a 1st place team in Week 10 of the season due to Alex Smith's injury.
8. Decided to kneel when he learned he lost his starting job.
9. Wore "cops are pigs" socks on the field.
10. Grew his hair out so people even KNEW he was black at all.
11. Walked away from the last year of his contract.
12. Declined opportunities with other teams because he, and his ugly girlfriend, thought he should be paid more.
13. Began doing "charity" work for black people because he'd done jack shit for them before.

That's your hero. He's a phony just like you. Anybody that defends stupid criminals that resist arrest, can also go fuck themselves. If you can't play by the rules in society, and choose to decline your right to be treated fairly, you aren't smart enough to live among the rest of us.

I don't remember "conservatives" wanting open borders and American taxpayers footing the bill for illegals to come here and get free healthcare. I seem to remember all the libtard candidates raising their hands for that. Don't you? And wasn't it libtards taking away my Constitutional rights and "freedom to do my thing" when it comes to owning firearms? Wasn't it Robert "the fake Mexican" O'Rourke coming for my "AR-14" per CornRow Joe?

So Drew Brees saw the light within hours of the social media outrage?
That changed his life long ways?

Fool! I didn’t mention “melanin content,” you did. But, I did speak to trauma and character defects.

We used to have a lot of insults for “person from group A who is kind to people from group B”.

Being kind to people from other groups isn’t a character defect, and it doesn’t need its own set of insults. You can retire the phrase “Uncle Tom”. It belongs in the trash along with the rest of the racial loyalty insults.
