Colin Kaepernick Castro T-shirt is ignorant of facts, insulting
Orlando Sentinel ^ | August 30, 2016 | George Diaz

Colin Kaepernick has some homework to do on the road to becoming a Social Warrior.

Go to Google and type in the words “Fidel Castro” “dictator” and “human rights.”

Our good friends at Wikipedia tells us that “human rights in Cuba are under the scrutiny of Human Rights Watch, who accuse the Cuban government of systematic human rights abuses, including arbitrary imprisonment, unfair trials, and extrajudicial execution.”

So maybe Kaepernick may want to reconsider wearing a Fidel Castro t-shirt to a press conference explaining why he refused to stand for the National Anthem before a game, protest injustice in this country.

"I'm going to continue to stand with the people that are being oppressed," he said. "To me, this is something that has to change. When there's significant change and I feel like that flag represents what it's supposed to represent, this country is representing people the way that it's supposed to, I'll stand."

I’d type in a bunch of Cuban curse words if I could.

There is no question that racial inequality needs to be a topic of conversation in the United States. But that gets us back to Cuba, where such conversations can get you in prison.

My family left there in 1961. We left our home, our furniture, most of valuables and our relatives behind because we were seeking freedom. It wasn’t for money, nor the opportunity to visit Disney and Universal.

We wanted to be free, and the United States, bless its soul, gave us that opportunity.

So yes, I find it personally insulting that Kaepernick is oblivious to the fact that Castro is one of the most vile dictators of modern times with extensive human rights violations.

Well-played. Your ignorance and stupidity goes well with your sense of comedic timing. We are done here.

Castro is laughing his ass off. “So many useful idiots in Amerika.”

He can believe anything he wants I really don’t care .
As a public figure imho he’s mis-guided on how to publicize his opinions.

He should stick to football if he can make this coming season-he’s behind.

He’s obviously a moron. I wonder what will happen when we turn into Zimbabwe. Will people say “Gee, I wish white Americans were back.” But we’ll be either dead or long gone to wherever...

The Castro’s are not entitled to the dignity of a natural death. I wish Trump would instigate a populist revolt down there. Instead Fidel will be remembered as a hero.

About 2 1/2 generations, in Cuba.

A generation is usually counted as 25 years.

Any money he earns in excess of $10k we needs to give it to the dictator to spread around to the poor second class suppressed citizens -— I mean does he really deserve $11,000,000.00 a year for throwing around a football ?? So he should forfeit $10,990,000.00 —think how many people that would feed -— the quilt must be eating him alive. I say give your money away now, this instant and end your agony Kaepernicky.

Yes. Let’s rounded it up to 3 generations and they have no idea what freedom or bountiful grocery stores look like.

If it were my team...he’d be gone on Saturday night.

If I were on that team, I would let the opposing defense take him out.
