Kaepernick is a true and devoted muslim he hates the U.S.

anyone who volunteers for the military is a hero in my book. Sorry I am old fashioned but "serving one's country" is not some simple slogan - it means putting your life on the line. Big difference between that and the possibility of a "sack". Colin is just another wannabe, entitled brat.

We should just stop talking about him and act like he doesn't matter - because he doesn't.

Once he gets cut from the NFL mobody will touch him then he can get a job at BLM and make his white parents proud ?

This guy is nothing more than a flash in the pan who is desperately seeking attention.
Pathetic.

If a widespread protest occurs in NFL--time to turn the money off and show the NFL who pays for their game... stop watching and don't go to games.. that will get their attention

I had a major problem with this until I saw the statement on television. I ask you to take two seconds to think about it this way.
He never said anything about the troops, our history or our people. He spoke about CLINTON'S corruption and how there is a double standard.
I understand peoples reactions, it was mine at first as well, but after listening to him I take it in a whole new way. You see someone attack the flag and you take it as an attack on the country. I think Colin sees it as an attack on the government.
Better said, "Why, in a Nation that is so great, with such great people are we WILLING to accept our corrupt government?"

@8:35 it's not about the corrupt government it's about the people actually on the front lines that believe this country as screwed up as it may be is better than any other option out there. They deserve better than this and they if anyone knows how corrupt this government is

CK must have had a schedule at Nevada that was notably light on history. One of my ancestors, a young man slightly younger than the goofy quarterback, gave his life as a Union soldier fighting under the flag he finds so oppressive to free slaves.

The irony of course is his parents and his birth mother are white; his birth father was long gone once he planted the seed. Celebrated 3 sport HS athlete and free college.

Obama's mindset with better physical skills. Sad.

From role model to dole model in one big step!

This ignorant elitist needs to spend about a year in a place like Somalia or the Congo to gain some perspective.

I don't know about hero, but Coffee is an idiot.

This vile government is fighting illegal and immoral wars.

Stop volunteering. Educate yourself!

The truth is that this youg man wants to use his position to make a statement he believes in,,,,,,,,That part is not wrong,,,but it is a testament to his ignorance about where ands when to it should be done. This turned out to be just plain stupid. He may as well raised is hands after a snap on Monday night football to make his statement,,,,,,OHH but that would have been a real sacrifice when they fired him. Even with his million I have to pity his lack of ability to use judgement.

Sometime you need to ask wiser people around you what they think.
