Colin Kaepernick refuses to stand for National Anthem

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap300...ational-anthem

At first glance, I wanted to say, "here's another ungrateful, over indulged spoiled brat".

Granted, he's not the brightest bulb in the chandelier. His interviews seem like he has a vocabulary of about 25 words, including, "uh", "duh", and "ya know".

His early success as a Quarterback was based on the primis that 250 lb linebackers who were just as quick and fast wouldn't catch on. They did.

But being stupid still does not strip one of their Constitutional right of freedom of speech and expression. Of course, I think his reasoning is flawed, but it is his reasoning, so thank god that the flag that he dismisses as representing racism and repression also represents the idea that he can refuse to honor it while benefitting from all of the opportunities and freedoms it represents.

very well said- I could care less if he refuses to stand or national anthem- as long as he doesn't disgrace the flag.

"Oh say, does that Star Spangled Banner yet wave, o'er the Land of the Free, and the Home of the Brave?"

Nope. Not really.

So what are you going to do if he exercises his well known right to stomp on the flag? You fought to protect the right of free speech, and that includes people stomping on the flag, pissing on it, etc..

But I have the right to inform the nfl that I am not amused. Being offended is a two way street.

Hey Kaepernick...that guy on the one dollar bill, George Washington, was a slave owner. I see you don't mind being paid a few million of those a year.

hands up don't shoot lives again

Obama really is awful isn't he? the pied piper with all the dim bulbs falling along

I see fans on facebook are burning his jersey with his number on it they bought. His team lost. Karma came quick on his dumb ass.

Standing to the "Star Spangled Banner" (the flag BTW) is honoring THE FLAG, just like when your make-believe LT entered the room you didn't sit on your ass .... or did you? (Make Believe of Course!).

Remaining on his ass is dishonoring (disgracing) THE FLAG.

Unless, of course, he is REALLY DISABLED and can't stand up.

Can't get your shit together on this one, can you white folk?
