COLIN KAEPERNICK’S STAND ON RACISM (no pun intended)
ALL COLIN KAEPERNICK DID WAS
MAKE A STATEMENT. Now he’s a traitor, professional football executives hate him,
and his football career is all but over. What does this say about freedom of speech in this
country?
OBVIOUSLY BLACK LIVES MATTER. Thanks to Colin Kaepernick, and now several other professional football players who have joined his protest, this issue is reaching more people than otherwise would have been the case. If the U.S. judicial system functioned properly, this kind of protest would be unnecessary. But too many killers (both policemen and non-policemen – as in the case of George Zimmerman, who shot Trayvon Martin) have been let off the hook.
