The real test will be if he does what he said he was going to do and DONATE all the money he received from the lawsuit. If he doesn't it just shows him to be the hypocrite that he is. As I said in an earlier post. No one is begging these guys to play, and when they do play they get paid very well. If they choose to throw it all away on some ideology and fall prey to people filling their heads with nonsense. That is on them. A fool and his money are soon parted.
There is no “real test” for Kap. It’s his money and he can do anything he wants with it. Your scrutiny is meaningless.
Have you told anyone else that won lawsuit money what to do with THEIR money? Nope.
If he’s a hypocrite, then he’s a hypocrite with money. Get you some money.
Wrong. This was a settlement of collusion and IRS will get their cut.
Quote:
• If you receive a settlement in an employment-related lawsuit; for example, for unlawful discrimination or involuntary termination, the portion of the proceeds that is for lost wages (i.e., severance pay, back pay, front pay) is taxable wages and subject to the social security wage base and social security and Medicare tax rates in effect in the year paid. These proceeds are subject to employment tax withholding by the payor and should be reported by you as ‘Wages, salaries, tips, etc.” on line 7 of Form 1040.
• If you receive a settlement for lost profits from your trade or business, the portion of the proceeds attributable to the carrying on of your trade or business is net earnings subject to self-employment tax.
Good for you! But, we all know how this ends - he'll commit suicide or get murdered by one of "his own."
BTW, just say 'white people' instead of conservative, because that's what you really mean.
You got Kap, we got Jussie ...
Slick-mouthed enough for you?
No. I really mean Conservatives. Liberal white folks don’t seem to have the same hurt feelings as you do.
Commit suicide or murdered by one of his own? You should say what YOU really mean....that this is wishful thinking on your part because you’re mad that he got paid.
What are you talking about? Kaepernick walked away from the final year of his contract. His choice entirely.
Read the thread. I'm not interested in repeating myself to people who jump in late and haven't followed the conversation.
