Soldiers need to kidnap him, put his arse out somewhere in Mosul and wish him the best of luck.

Kap should stand and say he supports the flag and all of that and then next week sit and be against the flag and keep switching all season

I don't understand, did Kaepernick say anything disrespectful to The Troops?


Nah, but military people get raging boners thinking about things like the National Anthem and the flag. Disrespect one of those, and you might as well be suggesting the military are a bunch of phony con-artists.

I think Kaep shouldn't have done what he did, but the outrage that the military community is driving is just as dumb.

Except the threads on here say other wise. Maybe people who support military are going crazy but most threads with military have shown that they say do whatever he wants.

He did have every right to do what he did.... However his playing days are over.... He sucks as a qb.... Tonight will be the last time you see him in the NFL..... Unless the Vikings are crazy enough to sign him........

Yeah they should teach him a lesson, break his legs, beat him up, shoot him, hang him, hope nobody ever employs him. I wouldn't let him work at Dollar General. Ungrateful bastard. :usa: :usa:

People who play this "Kaepernick is disrespecting the military" card are clearly missing the point.


So are the people that keep repeating Kaep has the right to do what he did. No fricking shite he does. Others also have the right to call him a moron and criticize him for exercising that right.

But sexual assault and killing dogs won't get you blackballed, so being a douche shouldn't either.


Being terrible does though. Kaep is not good at the moment.

Meh, I think it's ok to have whatever opinion you want, but you should hold the utmost respect for a country that allows you have those rights. We can argue politics all day and get heated and really not like each other, but then we should stand together and say the Pledge or stand for the anthem.
