God forgive me 😂 this comment got me dead 😭
How poetically tragic. 3 years ago this guy 'took a knee' to protest police brutality against black men (which was in fact the first time I had ever heard of that action). 3 years later, a policeman brutally 'takes a knee' on the neck of a black man for 8 minutes 46 seconds. You can't make this stuff up.
Wasn’t on the neck, turns out overdose, maybe we should wait until the coroners notes come out and the full body cam footage instead of jumping to conclusions
Repeating "I can't breathe" for 8 minutes and 46 seconds. This man needed to become a freaking seal if he can stay underwater for that long. You can't make this stuff up.

He was benched and was pissed off at that fact.

Broncos and John Elway was gone sign Colin Kaepernick but he wanted more money
So now Colin Kaepernick out of NFL

I’m in the 4th episode of his docu series on Netflix and I must say I am proud of him for taking a stand for the black community he gave his career up for what he believed in and for that God will always bless him and he is highly favored Salute to you ✊🏾🖤🤎

@@heldig5617 ...and someone has to ruin it.
When Colin Kaepernick was taking a Knee for National Anthem and got all this backlash, this rally broke me and any hope for the USA.
I am from Germany. I always get from Americans the question why we don’t show pride? Do we not have pride in what we have achieved? We did saw children together, injected them chemicals and made furniture from their bones. We try to learn from this. And the first lesson is, that pride is shown by action not symbols. We are always skeptical when someone is running around with a symbol to show his pride, but his actions undermine Human Dignity and the Constitution. There is a line between pride and blind nationalism.
Kaepernicks action did not undermine the constitution, it did embrace it!
May and American explain to me how his action was disrespectful, by demanding Human Dignity?
And Germans have remained the same fascist as in the 30's and 40's. Worst people I have encountered in Europe as an European myself. Also I thought at least you were brave, but the amount of cowardness you show in front of every shopping mall where by default young immigrant boys gather. You just lower your head and run like chicken. Of course you are very "brave" when you are taking a stand against Orthodox Christian Slavic european nations, like when you supported the bombing of Serbia in 1999 You disgust me
It’s disrespectful to do it behind the people in the military uniforms.
He is an opportunist and is actually very dumb when you hear him speak, that’s why he doesn’t talk much.
This was at a time when he was benched for his performance and was replaced by a very bad QB, he protested shortly AFTER that.
It was a very lucrative move for him, signing all kinds of deals and has some people actually compare him to Muhammad Ali, which is such a disrespect to that man
Undermining the constitution is being against kaepernick and being against flag burnings
@likesfavorites3388tyranny is conditioning or forcing people blindly support a nation that they disagree with, it’s tyrannical to imprison people for people burning their own flags, it’s tyrannically to social punish people for protesting and kneeing for the anthem. The founding fathers wrote the first amendment to prevent tyranny or abuse of power from the government even though congress wanted to ban burnings of privately owned flags ironically doing what the founding father’s would’ve hated
"Black people need to protest peacefully!"
"Not like that!"
Billy Bloomer yes but it’s another thing by disrespecting those who’s blood were spilled and died for the flag. He’s shitting where he’s eating
I don’t see any violence on his acting, but I do see it on the news, shouldn’t you be more offended about that?
He is not disrespecting anyone. Shut the fuck up and realize the struggle of black people in a fascist US

NotOften Told in USA you can choose your own job, in China you get assigned it.
I love how much easier it is to trigger the right than the left 🤣
It's about the same really
It triggered people from both sides. Anybody that respects, was within, or had family and friends in the military got triggered by this big middle finger. It doesn't matter which political party they lean towards when they are all Americans sharing the same cause.
I mean statistically most ppl are right handed...
Men can't become women
For a country that breathes and shits patriotism, it’s normal to care for a stupid anthem rather than respecting a human or life itself.
This was the peaceful protest. Nobody listened.
so people notched it up
so people started ruining small businesses and burning down buildings

Colin is a loser that likes to cause problems
b kelly, How is he a loser? He was kneeling to let everyone know that racism needs to be taken into action to be reduced. He didn’t cause any problems. He gave up his career to make sure millions knew equality and equity mattered. This was years ago. You are probably angry because you dislike the 49ers. That’s not the case here. Just chill. Keep your opinions to yourself.

I was in the infantry at the time this happened, and I couldn’t help but feel sad that my fellow soldiers didn’t see the point he was tryna make when he kneeled , they really took it personally instead of taking a step back and tryna understand Collins struggles/message and point of view they made him out to be disrespectful and ignorant ! We as Americans are turned against each other very easily, we can’t let the media paint the narrative
How about they just disagreed with you and did consider it.

LOL. As much as I support Kaep, this comment makes no sense. Honestly what is a flag [a physical object] supposed to do for him? What do you want a damn _flag_ to do?? It is a great symbol sure. But it is not a person, a flag doesn't have a soul, nevertheless a body which can make it stand.
Now if you're talking about the "country" it represents, I think you're blind if u think this country has never did anything for him.. when it gave him his opportunities so that he could succeed for one.

And PS, the police do a good job demonizing themselves
"the home of the free and the land of the brave" - sounds like what he is doing to me
I think people are absolutely ignorant to disagree with his protest. One of their claims is that “he is disrespecting the military”. If anything he is honor our military by using his right that was fought for by soldiers. In America we are supposed to be treated equally, have the same rights and equally justice, and if this is not shown in America all the time then what are we standing for? We’re are standing for a lie or what America “should be” instead or “what it is”. The sad and hard truth is that racism and injustice still exist in our country. So what’s wrong with a man risking his job and using his large platform to gain attention and to protest against the injustice in our country? I absolutely cannot find the wrong in this. *hint- this is coming from a veteran’s kid.

But as time passed I slowly began to understand why he did it, and now I realize how wrong I was. RIP to all those who died before their time unjustly at the hands of racism and oppression. Thanks for being brave and doing what you did that fateful day Mr. Kaepernick. You are a true legend.

Statistically more people have died to police more than the soldiers deaths in the Iraq war.
People in the army didn't die for us they diedfor our lying ass goverment
It takes a brave person to change his opinions when presented with facts. Thanks to you too, sir.
He should've protested police brutality, not knelt during the national anthem, then.
This man has done his part. Let's do our part, change this world.
But I’m confused why so many people called him a jerk or hated him for that?
FBI we got em They didnt want to see a black man advocating for what he believed in
JimboParadox I disagree with that because it woll incite a cycle of murder of violence as police would become more cautious of civilians and civilians become more fearful of police. And not every cop is bad. Ive met some amazing people who also happened to be officers. What if those 5 officers Micah killed were genuinely good people who wanted to serve their community. Violence isnt the answer, reforming the police department and holding them accountable for their actions is what will make a change in our nation
JimboParadox we talk and we talk but no actually takes action. We protest but never try to create bills to change the police department. We dont lobby for bills to be laws. We dont vote for the people who would accurately represent us. In killing cops it only paints the picture that the BLM movement is nothing more than terrorist organization and it’ll create a stigma that when black people are upset that we’d rather use our fists and guns than our words and knowledge to make a change. An eye for an eye will only make the world blind
He did his part by disrespting the flag. By disrespecting the hard workers who serve their country. It’s unacceptable.
He should have protested differently . Disrespecting all those people and his country is unjustified
People who criticised him cowardly hid behind the armed forces to emotionally manipulate public opinion against Colin. It's not "disrespecting the flag or armed forces". It's not symbolic and it's not that deep.
Kap kneeling didn't stop George Floyd from being killed.
Y’all love protecting the first amendment but when it comes to someone famous with money does something like PROTEST it’s a problem

@WhoopzuhDooppzz So no one is allowed to protest problems in your country by taking a knee? I fucking hate this nationalistic bullshit.
Only took a cop to knee on someone's throat to get the message. Yet there will still be people that somehow think kneeling during the national anthem is more offensive than murder. It's also known that kneeling in the military is a form of honoring falling soldiers as a sign of respect and by definition contradicts being disrespectful.
Collin was not kneeling to honor the falling soldiers at all dude
@@michaelflorczyk1394 no kidding?🤦♂️ don't misconstrue what i said the same way people misconstrue the reason Kaepernick was kneeling. He's repeatedly stated he's kneeling for all the dead black people unjustly murdered who can't speak up among other things and has addressed his stance Multiple times and it was suggested to him by a Green Beret vet to kneel to honor them instead of sitting on the bench and not standing. people who remain ignorant or stupid willfully choose to do so.

If he doesn't want to stand for the flag, then so be it. Many people don't even stand during the National Anthem anyway. Well as a Native American I do support him. There are so many oppressed people and of course Native Americans are/have been part of that. If people what to argue about the "lack of respect" he poses for the flag...just remember that flag also represents genocide to Native Americans and other non-Americans from the other countries. If anything the U.S. Government participated in genocide and it is still on going to this day. I think what he is doing is so harmless and people should worry about bigger issues than this. #4Colin
I am native american as well and it's funny how whites talk about immigrants. they are the true immigrants, so you get the fuck out of this country!
P.Anthony Lasiloo wtf r u talking about? The flag stands for genocide??? R u kidding??? The flag litterely is written down to mean life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, your just giving it an evil meaning because ur a privlaged Native American bitch that gets his life handed to him by the government for mistakes it made 200 years ago and your looking from something to bitch about.... genocide still happens today? Do you even know what genocide is? Genocide is the mass killing of a particular race or ethnicity... you find me any evidence of the government participating in genocide in the past 150 years and I'll be beyond shocked... ever heard of black hawk down? When the US tried to stop genocide in Somalia? But apparently the US does genocide, hell we even promote it!! As someone who has join the air force and plans to be a pararescuemen, you discussed me with your uneducated ramblings... god bless the USA
Brock Maroszek God bless your soul
***** Das pretty neat dude
Brock Maroszek
What I mean in greater terms is the U.S. killing Natives and non-Natives (around the world). The flag does represent stages of genocide. Why not acknowledge the non-Native genocide? killings such as the Iraq war where Saddam had no weapons of mass destruction. No we are not privileged in any way or form. The government continues to make mistakes today. Maybe study things more instead of complaining.

Rappers! LOL.
That’s quite the statement.
I find all that "disrespecting the flag" shit annoying and a lame excuse to criticize kaepernick when the the leaders and people who have fought for this country can't even respect the people who are not white and treated unequally 😂😂
What the f*ck are you saying!? When a some f*cking black person shoots us white people no one cares, but when a white cop shoots a black person everyone loses their f*cking shit!
Fred Casale don't use that as a fucking excuse. Police brutality happens almost everyday. What if I told you that all school shootings were by young white males.
Fred Casale um maybe because police brutality towards African Americans is a very real thing. A man was shot dead in his car with his daughter in it. For no reason. A 12 year old boy was shot dead at a park because your white police thought he had a gun but it was a stick. Please don't pull this "when black do this it's nothing" bullshit out your ass. Nobody has time. Maybe you should think about why exactly people are upset and why exactly Kap took a knee than to bash him and completely ignore the fact that there's a very real issue going on in your country.
His claim makes no sense. Blacks are not facing social injustice, back in the 50s and 60s when it really was happening they still didn't disrespect the flag. Also, the flag represents more than just police.

I’m not American and I’m sorry but I don’t understand why he was on his knees could someone please tell me
He was protesting police brutality in America

If blacks would leave America we would of had a peaceful country
All he does is disrespect all the heroes who sacrificed their time and lives. He is a grown man playing a game for a living. That's the reality of it.
You’re a 50 year old grown man disregarding his right to free speech in a RUclips comment section. And that’s the reality of it
He makes his money off of disrespecting the flag and those that died for it. Nobody in my family (who have fought in every war since the 1700s) fought for some rich privileged game player to disrespect it. Maybe that's what the people in your family fought for. And that's fine we all fight for different reasons. Martin Luther King never disrespected the flag. He had a plan of action to try and change the things that are wrong with this country. He tried to further unite the country he loved. He never got paid to be an activist. I'm all for taking a knee, when I pray. I'm a lot older than 50 and was raised in a bi-racial home when it was illegal in some states for blacks and whites to be married. The struggle for justice and equality has not been helped by his actions. Happy MLK Day.

No it absolutely is not
thats why reid or kaepernick havent played for 6 and 4 years and jeremy lane hasnt played for 6 years
When Rosa Parks sat in the front of the bus, well they said it wasn't the right way to protest; when MLK marched through the bridge in Selma, well they said that wasn't the right way; when Malcolm X told us to arm ourselves and defend ourselves by any means necessary, well they said that wasn't the right way; when Tommie Smith and John Carlos each raised a black-gloved fist well, they said that wasn't the right way; when Kaepernick kneeled, they also said it wasn't the right way. Now we're protesting everyday in every state of this country and they say it's not the right way... There's never gonna be a right way for the oppressor and that's why we keep on doing it anyway. Until it's ok. Because when the AR15 carriers in Michigan did it to protest the shelter in place orders, well, that was ok for them.
Peace
Profund. Then they try to smear the peaceful protesters by bringing in white nationalists to start riots. But we prevailed and didn't allow them to change the narrative that we are fighting against police brutality.
Damn straight brother
Those who make peaceful protests impossible make violence inevitable.
Shut up. LOL

As an Indigenous Dine', in my opinion. . .I think the only approval he needs is from us or my ancestors. America is our Native land before Columbus "stumbled" onto It. And Kaepernick gets my upmost approval. .any other voice who chimes in, can SUCK IT.

AllNike13 It’s an attack on the people. He’s not properly protesting. He doesn’t want America to change. He wants America to cease to exist by attacking majorities while supporting Communist ideologies. He’s not a good person.
Miller Theory This is this direct opposite of an attack and the whole point of him doing this was to draw attention and create a change. You sound ignorant..
Asia I am ignorant. Ignorant of the pains of Communism.

Ebony Tatmon Ebony Tatmon Russian and German Revolution of 1919. If you don’t know that, then, well... And he’s not protesting the right way. He’s attacking America itself by kneeling for the FLAG!

Crazy how an NFL team can release a player for freedom of speech but they won’t release a player if they beat their gf, or are accused of rape or drug charges ?? Sad
Because the nfl has a understanding that’s if you can’t have the simple idea to give respect to those who died so you could even play in that game. You don’t deserve to have that life or it’s benefits.
I support him! He is making change
What sowing more division?
What change is he making by dishonoring veterans who fought for EVERY LIFE in America? How about world war 2 vets? How is he making change?
He is a joke of a man, a moron, and a racist prick. He hates white people because we don’t give him enough money... he’s so underprivileged... wait no. He’s a multimillionaire? And I’m homeless? What? How is that possible if he’s mixed and I’m white?

Go kneel in front of a police station not during the anthem. I wished the NFL would fire any and all that kneel. You have a right to protest but not on their dime
Leonard Losoya, Jr. Your not very smart just stand and focus on your studies
He took the most humble and highest position God created our bodies to do. Kneel and honor the mighty as the anthem is going. God honors his child who sees and respects God openly and unashamed. I had the upmost honor and respect for this beautiful man. It's not about everyone else it's a prayer to God to have mercy on this country.
It's sad how blind people are and just not see the true act of this act that than say they love the Lord...prove it.

If there a literal soldiers who don’t get offended by it, I think you can get over it. I bet you’re also the type to say, “Protest peacefully please” aren’t you?
crazy how y’all call this a “protest”
Do any Americans know all the verses of the National Anthem. The song is pro slavery. My daughter is military, so is my family. He did not lie with what he said. A lot of police departments are still letting racist cop continue to do what they want without censoring them. The NFL is a business like all the others. He did not sign away his personal rights when he signed his contract. I see Jerry Jones took a knee with his players. I know it hurt his heart but not his pocket. People learn what the National Anthem is really about. You might take a knee too. Also pay attention to what he says and his interviews. You might learn something and stop being sheep. Following lies is how you elected Trump.
The song is not pro slavery. Site me how it is. And as for this son of a bitch. He is paid to play football. That's his job. You can do your protesting off the clock. And as for trump. The man has more people of color working for him in the doj and in the state department. I would know I'm black and work with many doj officials.
Stop it right now, just STOP, y’all have been slaved by SOUTHERN confederate rebels, people who actually tried to take control over the union, that has nothing to do with our anthem + i sing it everyday and i can tell there is nothing that sounds pro slavery in our anthem, just relax our nation is composed by a multitude of races and cultures.

Don’t kneel, protest in a way that doesn’t disrespect veterans
He’s not protesting veterans, you fool.
Not about veterans, freedom of speech
What I don’t understand is why people get butt hurt over someone not standing. Plus the rationale behind him “disrespecting” the veterans make no sense. What if a veteran where to do this, would he be “disrespecting” himself. Conservatives and White Nationalist use this is an excuse to push their political agenda of “extreme nationalism”. We don’t need the flag everywhere, there are other ways to show patriotism.
