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.

Am I yelling at a wall?! There are other candidates?

What are you people advocating? Don't vote until the perfect candidate is on the ballot?!

Well guess what, you'll be waiting a loooooong arse time.

Btw, the machines in Louisiana measure voters obstaining from voting on a particular issue. If you don't want to vote for president then don't! The machine will tell the tale. But to sit at home is just plain lazy.

I'm not sure where you voted but I voted for a sheriff and several judges. It wasn't just about Trump or Hillary.

There were over 10 candidates on the ballot for president here.

Do you think the average person knows anything about their positions on the issues? frick no. So until you educate yourself on the candidates and stop letting TV tell you who to vote for, the argument that all of the candidates were trash is null and void.

I'm just saying it's his choice. It doesn't mean anything he says from here on out will have zero credibility or truth. I don't ask people whether they voted before I talk to them about public policy.

Because he (and all the others who followed his lead and took a knee too) engaged in protest to complain about what they saw as inequality and oppression and demanded change. Voting is the best way to get things changed....so by him protesting for change, then not actually voting, its hypocritical of him.

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.
