I don't know Kaep's reasons, but if he didn't feel like anyone was worth of the position, I don't see the issue with not voting.

Just because he didn't vote (might I add Clinton won Cali so it doesn't matter) why does this matter? I assume SAS was voting for Clinton but it's not like Trump has been saying "Keep the black man down!" all year or some shite.

I disagree. You don't have to vote in order to have a voice on a particular issue. Lots of black men didn't want to vote for Hillary.

I said this before, but I still think the ONLY reason Kaepernick started kneeling during the national anthem was to give SF a reason to cut him. During the pre-season he said he didn't want to play for Chip Kelly.. And he just so happens to start doing this the game before the first cuts are made. He wanted out of his contract hoping to sign somewhere else, but it backfired and all of a sudden his jersey sales started to go up, people started to "support" him.

He is a below average NFL QB who is an idiot.

SAS and Colin can both go to hell. They're equally ignorant and annoying in my book.

Just realized this isnt the same one I watched. The one he has on his facebook page is even worse. He did a live facebook broadcast earlier.

Colin Kaepernick is the fakest martyr of all time. I've said it before and I'll say it again. I understand the opinion he's supposedly representing but thinking he should represent any movement like this is comical. Imho he undermines every other activist that speaks out that's actually legitimate enough in their convictions to take seriously.

ETA: I know people who didn't vote bc they had no strong feelings for or against any candidate, or there was no lesser of two evils in their eyes. However based on everything he's said I'd say Colin should have at a bare minimum voted against the candidate that was the epitome of everything he supposedly was stranding (actually kneeling) for.

I don't like Stephen A Smith, but I 100% agree with him here. Whether you're a Democrat or a Republican, it doesn't matter. If you feel like there is injustice, get out and try to make a difference without bashing everyone that disagrees with you.
