Why are you agreeing with the poster? Is the poster black?

Good to see your racism out in the open. Always best to know what one is dealing with. As repulsive as it is.
Shame your buddies, who are black and is the only reason you like them, can't dominate two parent families and stop neglecting their children. How about you stop marketing welfare?

Ever notice it's always articulate and refined black people who cause the far right the most disdain. If he would have beat a woman and got busted with drugs and a gun the same people would be saying give the boy a break.
You don't have free speech at work. A refined person would know that and not speak about things in an uneducated manner.

You do have free speech at work unless they tell you not to discuss something at work. That was not done. Even now it's not been done.

Kaepernick has multiple tattoos about his faith. His right arm features a scroll with the Bible verse Psalm 18:39 written on it. Tattooed under the scroll are praying hands with the phrase "To God The Glory" written on them. To the left of both the scroll and praying hands is the word "Faith" written vertically. His left arm features a Christian cross with the words "Heaven Sent" on it referring to Jesus Christ. Written above and below the cross is the phrase "God Will Guide Me". Written to the left and right of the cross is the Bible verse Psalm 27:3.[98][99][100]



He might be working for another "employer." He's more than just articulate and refined.

Wow, $60 million? I thought it wasn't about the money? Will he be giving 90% to social activism?

This is why playing the race card and being a victim is such a big business in America, he earned more by kneeling than he ever did playing.
You can thanks Trump for giving it life, all the attention it needed. And in the meantime, the NFL solider on and Kaepernick gets paid.

I agree.

Also, I don't believe he wants to play NFL. He wants to be a "faux social activist". Now with the Nike contract and the NFL payout he is not struggling for money. He also has the YourRightsCamp which is probably sponsored and run by Nike. He is making a lot of money with the faux social activist and he doesn't have to take hits or train.

If you check out his instagram, it's pretty much a PR site for his merchandise. His girl also helps out too.

sigh.... If the boss has the lawful authority to stop that speech, it isn't free speech. It's not cheating if you don't get caught???

The reason Kap was let go and not picked up is because he has little value. A lower tier QB who could have latched onto a weaker team club as a backup or sometimes starter but he carried to much baggage.
If Zeke Elliot had done this does anyone in their right mind think he would have been let go and not picked up? Players who hit their "groupies", wives, or girlfriends get picked up by another team if they have enough value.

Ray Rices last year, 214 carries 3.1 avg, 58 catches 5.5 avg. Absolutely horrible numbers and he didn't get picked up after he hit that woman because he lost his value.
