The NFL is a business. Kaepernick costs his team and the league revenue
with his narcissistic "protest". They are right not to sign him. He's
poison.
For what it's worth, I support the *point* of his protest. It's the
*form* of it that is complete shit. It's an empty gesture in terms of
doing anything productive to get cops to stop mistreating blacks. In
fact, it's entirely counterproductive. If Kaepernick were out with a
group of marchers protesting police shootings and beatings, and risking
getting his own skull cracked with a nigger-knocker, I would have a
little more respect for him. He's not. His kneeling is a pussy gestures.
