You're entitled to your opinion. Not looking to win an argument here, just to provide perspective. It's not like he lit up an American flag while praising Allah and raping white women; the guy simply took a knee before some football games. Get mad all you want
Missed the part where I said I was mad?
Exactly.
You seem mad here.
What got me was people saying he shouldn’t be fired and that this was a freedom of speech issue.I have no compassion for; nor any problem with Kaep. Guy watches these terrible police brutality videos (trust me, they exist and it DOES happen) and gets angry (rightfully so). Decides to take a knee to send a quiet message. No skin off my back, and I can't in my right mind argue that he SHOULDN'T be po'd about police brutality, racial oppression. I'm not black. Nor are MOST of the people who choose to get mad at Kaep. I have no place to bash him. I wish people wouldn't cry wolf about a lack of patriotism when he was obviously, clearly, sincerely targeting a very specific LEGITIMATE problem with his protest; which had absolutely nothing to do with our troops or the military. Thinking about how it somehow became anti-american to take a knee during a song makes my brain hurt.
Nope
He gets angry at all police for the action of a few, donates money to a cop killers charity.I have no compassion for; nor any problem with Kaep.

Should have been.
True, it's a union issue. Btw, there's a lawsuit going on right now. NFL botched this whole issue big time. They're gonna pay.
It's also about racial oppression, in general. Like I said. Is he wrong? How? Just because we've seemingly improved on that front doesn't mean it still doesn't rampantly exist. It sure does. Who are you to tell him to be happy with the environment in America as it pertains to racism?
You must be lost!
I think I'm just bored. I really need to get a girlfiend
Pretty much playing with yourself it appears!
When you're on the clock, nobody cares if you're happy or not...nobody cares how you feel about racial inequality , hate, love, abortion, God, white, black, Iraq, the swamp, your old lady,Obummer ,Trumpster.....Drive the truck and play football....bitch when the whistle blows.
I don’t think America a rampantly racist country, that’s were I disagree with his protest.
That's a whole different issue that even the NFL is trying to figure out right now with the whole "stay in the locker room if you dont want to stand......" is he on the clock during the anthem? Is taking a knee really giving the business a bad name....or is it simply pissing bleeding hearts off?
