Colin Kaepernick thanks Miami Dolphins players for anthem protest prior to season opener

Colin Kaepernick thanked a pair of Miami Dolphins players for taking a knee during the playing of the national anthem prior to the first game of the NFL regular season Sunday. Miami Dolphins wide receivers Kenny Stills and Albert Wilson were the first -- and as of Sunday evening, the only -- two players to kneel during "The Star-Spangled Banner" prior to a Week 1 game.

"My Brothers [Stills] and [Wilson] continue to show their unwavering strength by fighting for the oppressed! They have not backed down, even when attacked and intimidated." Kaepernick wrote on Twitter, adding, "Love is at the root of our resistance!"

I suppose Clayton County (GA) Sheriff's Deputy Shaquille O'Neal might have something to say to Colin Ferguson Kaepernick.

That is an excellent point...

Someone with the ability to ask Kaepernick questions should definitely pose this one to him....

What an idiot. Kneeling during the National Anthem is NOT fighting for the oppressed.

“Sorry, you are correct. I had no dog in this race.”

The liberal media made it a point to post a Dolphin player kneeling during the anthem. Just what they want...the attention. THAT’s why I checked the score...hoping they would lose.

My question is WHY is a photographer running around taking photos of kneeling players during the National Anthem? Photographers should be standing with their hand on their heart and STOP giving attention to these multi-millionaire whining babies!

Hating police is showing love? Doesn’t sound right.

so....we've gone from the debunked ‘police targeting and brutality’ to ‘FIGHTING for the oppressed!’

Since there are no 'oppressed' in the USA (other than middle-class workerslaves) I imagine he'll be landing in Iran, Myanmar, China and Malaysia any minute. Then he can head to India, Brazil, Mexico and the rest of South America and take on the caste system. And then Turkey, to take on Sharia law. And there's always South Africa where he could stand up for farmers.

We had a word for people like Kap back in the 70's: PLASTIC - "superficially attractive yet unoriginal"

Take a knee in memory of the “oppressed” Gentle Giant, and the Ferguson peaceful “protests” that followed. The Dolphins should put Kaepernick on their team to boost their kneeling stats.

Kaepernick is a professional malcontent now. What a pathetic loser.

Bottom line... The same Nato and US forces that started the “arab spring” BS in Libya were 30 mins away in Sigonella Italy and they let those men twist and die in the wind for 13+ hours.

Spit!
