I strongly support the brother because it’s issues like this that we can really see the ignorance and fear that so many people in this country posses.

Why did I listen to Colin Kaepernick, He’s not even any good.
NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick has chose to protest the injustice that black and brown people face in America by not standing for the national anthem and some people are upset. I believe there was a lot of friction.
If you’re following the Colin Kaepernick national anthem drama closely, you already know we are now at the point of the controversy where we talk about what other people have said about The Thing that happened what by now feels like months ago.
Oladipo told Complex Sports he thinks some players will protest similar to the way some National Football League players have in the preseason and first week of the regular season. With so much passion, he may have not considered the potential consequences for doing such a thing.
Alexander Olday, goaltender, disproved the actions taken by Kaepernick and the NFL.
When questioned as to why he chose to remain seated during the anthem, Kaepernick stated that it was his form of protesting what he perceives to be the mistreatment of blacks in the United States. He sat on the bench during the anthem. Although this is what garnered the most public interest, Kaepernick had actually starting sitting during the anthem in the first two preseason games. For parents, it is our job to teach our kids how to be good citizens of the world, how to be fearless, and how to stand up for what they believe in – even if that means kneeling down. The 49ers QB responded during his postgame comments Monday, saying that Dilfer’s remark was “one of the most ridiculous comments I’ve heard”.
I think the Founding Fathers put that in the Constitution so people – athletes or whoever – can speak up when they think something is wrong with the United States. Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry said during an CNBC interview earlier this month that he applauded Kaepernick for taking his stand.
“And all they do for our country and the people in Afghanistan and all these people fighting”.
Because of the O’Neill situation, if a player takes a knee during the national anthem before a game, a few people will support the move because of how they now feel about their government.
The Los Angeles Lakers’ Nick Young is once more courting controversy, telling TMZ that he would sit during the U.S. national anthem.
