Nowhere near comparable. Lotche is an international embarrassment, who got caught in his lies. Kaepernick is taking a stance on an issue, whether you agree with him or not.

Lochte is an ignorant spoilt brat. Kaepernick is standing by his principles.

Kaepernick is a douche who was abandoned by his black father (something black men tend to do) and raised by a wonderful white family that gave him everything he could ever need. Most of his upbringing was around whites and his gf's were mostly white and now all of all sudden he cares about "blacks" lol. The guy is doing this to get attention because he is no longer the starting QB and wanted the spotlight. You all are fools if you buy this BS from him.

Abandoned by his black father?

His mom put him up for adoption as a baby. It's never been revealed who his father is and the reason he was put up for adoption in the first place. His father may not even know he was ever born.

So the only info you have is that his white mother abandoned him!

The liberal media doesn't even consider it socially unacceptable.

The liberal media did consider it socially unacceptable for Dan Cathy to voice his opposition to gay marriage as part of his religion, and they also found it socially unacceptable for Brandon Eich to exercise his freedom and donate his personal money to stop Proposition 8.

The liberals believe that because the First Amendment doesn't protect how others respond to your speech (simply says government can't ban free speech) it was good for Mozilla to fire Eich as CEO. But the liberals also believe that the 49ers owners and coaches shouldn't punish Kaepernick for his actions though they have the legal right to do so.

Plus if I lived in San Francisco I would be boycotting that team. That kind of thing will only fly in the People's Republic of California.

His father left him, just like the father that gave Obama all his dreams left him and his white mother.

Like they say, the most confusing day of the year in Detroit (and Ferguson, and Baltimore, and Chicago) is Father's Day!
