An idle mind is a devil’s workshop.

This  man is fighting against the very rights that our soldiers are fighting and dying.

Has Kaepernick been radicalized?   (Notice the finger.)   He has railed against the U.S., again, and beginning to sound like a terrorist.  Why would anyone stay in a country that has given him everything on a silver platter and still complain?  He was taken in by a family who showed him what “love” was and this is how he shows his appreciation by spiting in the country’s face in every instance.

The NFL gave him his “one last chance,” but his mind wouldn’t accept the goodness.  Instead he turned on them because that is not what he is.   It would have put him on acceptance terms and he would loose his martyr status.

It is all about “attention.”  It is time to call it for what he is.  It is time to stop buying his shoes because his money is what keeps him in the “ranting and raving” business.

It is all about the company he keeps and proving himself – that he is one of them.  Haven’t we given him enough attention which he doesn’t deserve?

Plain and simple.

Colin Kaepernick, the former NFL quarterback whose kneeling protests of racial injustice roiled the league, called out US “imperialism” on Twitter on Saturday.

Kaepernick’s tweets came a day after the killing of Iranian military commander Qasem Soleimani, although they did not specifically reference the Baghdad drone strike ordered by US President Donald Trump.

“There is nothing new about American terrorist attacks against Black and Brown people for the expansion of American imperialism,” Kaepernick tweeted.

“America has always sanctioned and besieged Black and Brown bodies both at home and abroad,” he added in a separate post. “America militarism is the weapon wielded by American imperialism, to enforce its policing and plundering of the non white world.”

The assassination of Soleimani has been followed by vows of reprisal from Iran — met with a warning from Trump that the United States is targeting 52 sites in Iran if the Islamic republic attacks American personnel or bases.

Kaepernick, 32, was an NFL star in 2016 when he began kneeling during pre-game playings of the US national anthem to protest racial inequality — demonstrations that Trump criticized.

He opted out of his San Francisco 49ers contract for free agency in 2017, but found no takers.

He reached a settlement with the NFL over claims that owners were improperly keeping him out of the league and had insisted in 2019 that he was “ready to play” despite almost three years out of the league.

His tweets came on the opening day of the NFL playoffs.

All I can say is – he is so boring.  Being educated didn’t improve his mind because something is missing.
