He was always full of crap. If he really cared about his "protest", then he would have gone to the public streets like Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr did. But no, he did it behind the security of armed guards. And the sad part is, you have morons out there that believe everything he says, and even goes out and buys Nike after he signed a deal, without realizing that the owners of Nike are just as much pigs as cops who kill unarmed black people and those who enslaved people.

i suggest you spend more time learning and less time attacking Americans who refuse to bend the Knee to trumpism

He got tens of millions and stuck it to Trump and Trumpism and there is nothing you can say or do to change that.
If your employer tells you to not protest, you don't protest.

What you cannot understand because you have a twisted agenda is there are 2 seperate issues.
Protest at work and get fired - legal
Owners getting together and agreeing to stop someone from working - illegal

You're commenting and don't know which way is up. lol

But just think, if he could actually walk 50 miles in a police officer's shoes in the rough section of Chicago or any other (poor) black neighborhood in an urban area... he would understand what it's like to have to keep the peace in those areas.

IMO blacks are treated just fine in America right now. And the only thing that would stop all the race cards being played, is to have those black neighborhood patrolled by black police officers. A police force should reflect the racial and cultural makeup of the neighborhood they are patrolling.

But this kneeling thing is old and completely passe. It's so passive aggressive and provocative in an unproductive way.
And yet, here we are still talking about it

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.
I think you're conflating his protests with his lawsuit against the league for allegedly colluding to keep him jobless.

Those two things are not the same and one does not impact the other.

You might want to look at how much Kaep has donated to his "social activism", it's a lot.

Why does one have to become a police officer or give millions away to understand how wrong this is?
1% of America are murderers, regardless of their profession. The fact that you give extra attention to someone because they are in a profession that fits your agenda, only proves that you have an agenda.
