Colin Kaepernick Wears ‘Kunta Kinte’ T-Shirt After Ditching NFL-Organized Workout

Colin Kaepernick abruptly canceled the workout the NFL scheduled for him Saturday, and instead worked out at a local Atlanta high school wearing a shirt comparing himself to a slave.

The former San Francisco 49ers quarterback has not played since the end of the 2016 season, the same season he began protesting against the country as the national anthem played. But his exclusion from pro football has been a focus of attention as supporters claim he has been “blackballed” from the league for his extreme, left-wing activism.

This useful clown to Cultural Marxism is trying to destroy football by making it look like a racist system of black slavery. Not knowing the tool he is, he is actually a tool who would put all of us into slavery.

if colin is a slave- who is his master? And why why have they allowed ghim off the plantation?

Colin Crapyerknickers- you haven’t got a clue what it was to be a slave- Poor little rich man complaining about being a slave? Cut the crap colin! Stop the whining- You’re a free man as is everyone today- and rightfully so- enough with the idiotic slavery comparisons!

Kunta Kinte is a mythological character. You might as well wear a Harry Potter T-shirt.

Sadly, that's true. Not many people remember that Alex Haley was taken to court in 1978 and charged that Roots was substantially plagiarized from Harold Courlander's book, The African.

Courlander's witnesses included Michael Wood an English professor at Columbia University and an expert on plagiarism. Wood opined in a report that the evidence of plagiarism in Roots was 'clear and irrefutable' and that the copying of passages was 'significant and extensive.'

After a five-week trial in federal district court, Courlander and Haley settled the case, with Haley making a financial settlement of $650,000 and a statement that 'Alex Haley acknowledges and regrets that various materials from The African by Harold Courlander found their way into his book Roots.' Haley claimed the appropriation of Courlander's passages had been unintentional.

Shortly after the trial, however, Joseph Bruchac, an instructor of black literature at Skidmore College, came forward to swear in an affidavit that in 1970 or 1971--five or six years before the publication of Roots--he had discussed The African with Haley and had given his 'own personal copy of The African to Haley.' In a later interview with BBC Television, Judge Ward stated, 'Alex Haley perpetrated a hoax on the public.'

He really needs a serious Colinoscopy, performed with one of these new, improved versions of a colonoscope:

No One, I mean no one seems to remember that Kapernick was benched for poor play. He sat during the anthem then...After a few of games, a reporter asked him about not standing for the anthem. He mumbles something and pretty much said nothing....then a week or so later he said he was protesting (whatever the flavor that week)...

The ball started rolling then.

He was benched and threw a tantrum because he couldn’t play. The coach didn’t play him because he would throw interceptions or run backwards 20 yards and get tackled. He stank. He did have a good half season coming off the bench and took the Niners all the way...until he lost.

The consensus behind closed doors around the NFL is that Colin Kaepernick has no interest in playing pro football anymore.

Let's give him credit for being smart, though. He's making far more money as a professional victim than as a professional athlete.

They’re giving him an opportunity to show off and possibly get hired.

He decides to say I shouldn’t have to perform to spec, I want to be the center of attention.

He is proving he CANNOT be a team player. And that just killed his career. He wants to be a voluntary martyr and permanent activist instead.

All of it started with going BLM to try to get more attention and prevent himself from being criticized for poor performance.

And he will wield the power of the liberal lynch mob any time he’s upset, whether he spends too much time on the bench or doesn’t get the raise he wants.

Colon is a low IQ POS.

Kunta Kinte was 100 percent black African. Colon is one half white supremacist. Does he understand this?

........What a ridiculous dumb@ss.

Kunta was set free from the NFL white slave owners, yet he is still a slave? I’m confused.
