You're correct on 3 of 4.

Kaepernick is a very intelligent dude who is doing wonderful things for the community at large. He's absolutely putting his money and time where his mouth is, and should be lauded as an exemplary person.

Yes. Bashing police officers should be lauded. What a joke.

He's very rationally and in detail explained why he's protesting the stark differential between blacks and whites by police in this country. One would have to be absolutely insane to deny what he's saying isn't the cold truth.

He's also very active with youth groups, and has donated millions towards education causes, even while unemployed.

Why are you stating things that have already been stated to him multiple times?

What a role model.

I agree.

We'd all benefit from more people like Kaepernick in this country.

Colin Kaepernick is far from being an idiot. The only dumb thing I know he has done is hurt his NFL career, but he did that for good reason and a personal belief, so kudos to him!

Look at the source ... im sure he has his cop/piggie socks and his Castro shirt right in his top drawer next to each other ...

Hes a great american ...

You fawn over a racist sociopath who once - on tape - bragged about how he likes to grab the genitals of women he doesn't know while forcing his tongue down their throats, yet you draw the line at a guy wearing socks you find personally offensive?

Still team Randa

Speaks volumes about you.

We have a thread about this already.

Two more Cops killed in in Florida. I'll bet you and your hero Kap love that.

What would lead you to believe that I or Colin Kaepernick - who is far from my hero - would take joy in the loss of human life?

Thats is a pretty false narrative. Nowhere did Kapernick every say he wanted cops killed. He has protested against what he feels is the unjust treatment of black Americans by the police, but he never said anything about killing police.

Anyone whose spent even five or ten seconds listening to Kaepernick speak or reading his op-eds know this is true.

The anger against him is just venom from impotent and angry people who are terrified by outspoken people of color.

Symptoms of the Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Ya .... hes a great guy .... how can u not love Kap ....

he truely inspires togetherness in a very positive manner ..., it really amazes me how anyone can not see all the good he’s doing and some even have the nerve to think what hes doing is devicive ... hes such a positive influence in the community ... ...

Once again...

You fawn over a racist sociopath who once - on tape - bragged about how he likes to grab the genitals of women he doesn't know while forcing his tongue down their throats, yet you draw the line at a guy wearing socks you find personally offensive?

Also, I love how on your third bite of the apple/whiff, your argument wilted down to "he's divisive".

DIAM: (fanning himself) Oh, my word, he's so divisive! He wore improper socks! I'm so VERY offended

*Diam faints*

More false narrative, I never said he is a great guy, or that I even agree with him. But at the same time, I am not going to sit here and lie and say he said things that he never said.

Colin Kaepernick donated $25,000 to group honoring convicted cop-killer

https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2017/sep/28/colin-kaepernick-charity-donates-25000-to-assatas-/

Colin Kaepernick started out taking a knee during the national anthem to protest police brutality, but his activism has since expanded to encompass a wide range of leftist causes, including a group named after a convicted cop-killer.

The Colin Kaepernick Foundation donated in April $25,000 to Assata’s Daughters, a Chicago “direct action” resistance organization honoring Assata Shakur, who escaped prison and fled to Cuba after being found guilty in the 1973 murder of Officer Werner Foerster.

The grant includes $2,500 for CopWatch, a program that trains volunteers to follow and video police, and $15,000 for teen training, part of the group’s commitment to “develop and train young people, ages 4-19, in the Black queer feminist tradition and in the spirit of Assata.”

Apparently Mr. Kaepernick is also a fan: He retweeted a July 16 message wishing Shakur a happy birthday.

Now he goes out of country and speaks out against those that put their life on the line to keep all of us safe. Idiot of the week.

odd, i dont remember a cop putting their life on the line to keep me safe.

profiling me? absolutely.

Good! Assata's trial was a joke. I wish more of the US's political prisoners could've found refuge in Cuba. Also AD is a well run organization. I have a lot of friends who speak highly of the work that they do. I believe they've also helped out some DA too. That's great praxis.

They are on duty 24/7 all across this country keeping us safe. You included.

Odd, I don’t have a cop that lives in my neighborhood.

With the money Kaepernick gave to Assata's Daughters, they developed a really good Breakfast/Book drive program in Englewood, a very impoverished area in South Side Chicago. Not a fan of the group's namesake, but they've done tangible community work.

They also do a lot of good work for lesbian and trans black women, who are statistically the most vulnerable among us.

Such a good thing for children who have so little.

And I don't know much about the project funding regarding people who are trained how to properly film police officers, but on paper it sounds like a very forward thinking initiative. Don't hold me to lauding it, as I'm not familiar with it, but it sounds good.

Thanks for sharing, Vambo.

These are all exemplary examples of Kaepernick donating to good causes. Like I said, he puts his money where his mouth is.

So are you trying to say they are not an organization that is training people in how to kill police and get away with it? Come on man, it cant be true.

The police state in America is fine. Actually, it's awesome.

Colin Kaepernick is just being divisive, and he should cut it out, because it's offending Diam and giving him the vapors.

If Kaepernick wants to help kids, he should help them improve — not rabble-rouse

http://thehill.com/opinion/civil-rights/...rove-not-rabble

The fact that he’s blessed to live in a country that rewards his talent generously could be an inspiration to millions of impoverished kids across the country. Instead, his refusal to show respect for the nation is an insult to the thousands of working Americans who go to work daily — many of them risking their lives as cops, soldiers, firemen, nurses and teachers — for a much smaller paycheck.

Teaching kids to dishonor the flag and the men and women who have sacrificed everything for it is misguided and won’t help ease relations between police and poor communities. Neither will Kaepernick’s funding radical groups.



Kaepernick’s foundation has been hailed for donating nearly $1 million to various nonprofits. But these groups advance an extreme and socially destructive left-wing agenda.

For instance, his foundation reportedly contributed $25,000 to Assata’s Daughters, a resistance group named after Assata Shakur, a cop killer and Black Panther who fled to Cuba after escaping prison for first-degree murder. How does honoring an FBI-designated terrorist help black kids stay out of trouble with the police? In a community that lacks engaged dads, having more mainstream positive role models and mentors takes on added importance.

He reportedly gave another $25,000 to the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights, a group that advocates for illegal immigrants. How does that help black teenagers find jobs?

He also reportedly contributed to 350.org, a group seeking to impose limits on oil and natural gas, and to the pro-abortion Center for Reproductive Rights. How do those groups help black teenagers with finding jobs, or help black families to find affordable energy?

I understand Kaepernick’s desire to want to help kids in poor neighborhoods. I grew up in such a neighborhood in Milwaukee. Funding “social activism,” however, won’t help struggling students succeed in the classroom, where the achievement gap between them and their white counterparts continues to widen, nor will it help them to find and keep good-paying jobs.

Too many black kids are functionally illiterate because their parents were functionally illiterate. Inner-city K-12 public schools aren’t teaching kids how to be good students, so they aren’t learning to love books. They’re not learning to read, so they’re not embracing education. Then government keeps them shackled to these failing schools by mandating that these kids go to the same failing schools, generation after generation.

These kids aren’t getting prepared by parents or teachers for life in the real world. They can’t keep up in the classroom, so they drop out — 1.2 million high schoolers each year. They grow up in places with no hope or job opportunities, so they end up chronically unemployed. Then they don’t have the education to compete for the jobs of the 21st century, jobs that would help them move up the ladder. No wonder they can’t break out of this cycle of generational poverty.

Taxpayers have spent billions on these school districts with little to show for it. The Milwaukee Public School District, my hometown reports that only 18 percent of black students are proficient at reading. Their graduation rate bumped along at not much above 50 percent. These figures are staggering. If they were a letter-grade in school, it would be an “F.”

The problem isn’t a lack of social activist indoctrination. It’s a lack of education. Illegal immigration groups aren’t going to solve America’s poverty problem any more than Black Panther terrorists will improve race relations. Instead, poor communities need help from innovative education ideas like voucher programs and charter schools. The safest space we hear so much about that we can provide these kids is inside a classroom and off the streets.

Kaepernick isn’t helping his community. He is financing the continuation of cultural dysfunction that leads to the cultural rot permeating urban centers, such as men who father multiple children outside of marriage. His misguided effort at change ultimately does more to promote questionable lifestyle choices by young black and Hispanic males.

If Kaepernick wants to help black and Hispanic kids in poor neighborhoods, he should help groups that find ways to keep kids in school, close the education gap, strengthen black families and prepare our children for well-paid jobs in fast-growing industries like health care, micro-electronics, and bio-tech.

After that, they can learn to become rabble-rousers.

Did you seriously just post an op-ed from David Clarke?

I can't stop laughing - for those who don't know, David Clarke is that absolute clown who wears a cowboy hat and fake TGI Friday medals on his uniform.



He tried to get two guys arrested on an airline a few months back when they made fun of his fake medals, and lost his job because he spent all day doing FOX interviews while several people died from dehydration in his jails.

Copying and pasting a David Clarke op-Ed in an attempt to disparage Colin Kaepernick? Was there not a Breitbart article available?

Thanks for the laugh, dude

I'll grant you this: You are one of the most spiteful, derogatory, and negative posters on here.

You hate, and belittle, everyone - politically and socially. You are equal in that, so kudo's to you.

You bring up others past posts like you keep an index card handy as to when posts were made. Yet, OTHERS tell us we can't bring up your past.

You like no one, and stop at nothing to belittle others. If they agree with you, they're fine in that thread.

You are nothing if not consistent in that way. Ridicule, belittle, etc. Kudos to you, for that. You are consistent, and overly redundant.

And truthfully, not that it matters at ALL, I was going to post in a different forum about my daughter, softball, and how things weren't going all that well so far this year, but how we went to a U.of Michigan softball game today and had a great time.

But as I was doing it, I thought "Do I want to expose myself to the ridicule that might come from PDF, oldcold, perfect, and others?

No. Big deal, right? Who cares about Arch's stuff. I get it, I understand.

I'm so damn glad I didn't post what I had typed out. (a lighthearted description of our day today) I won't put personal stuff out here........as I probably never should have in the first place, truthfully. My bad. I forgot this was an "attack" board.

I can do 1 of three things, and 1 of them is never let this board in on fun things going on in my life. That's not anyone's problem but mine, I know.

2. Just read, and not post.

3. Fight fire with fire.

I'm choosing 1 and 2. Not a singe person loses anything.

I will continue to read the hate, though. From you, towards everyone, and from several others towards me and my 'ilk'.

Me not posting means nothing at all. And it's not like I'll be done posting, understand that.

You're more than welcome to bring up my past.

It doesn't bother me, because it only comes up when people are flustered after having their weak arguments cracked open.

But I've never said don't.

Others don't view it fondly, and there's a reason for that - I'll leave you to figure out why.

But my past is always fair game and in bounds as far as I'm concerned.

How come hannity isn’t on this list?

Up until about 10 a.m. this morning, Donald Trump actually thought that North Korea had just given up its nuclear program, and didn't expect anything in return.

Curiously, he somehow missed the Idiot of the Week cut.

Executive privilege has to count for something.

It says something that the best defense you have for trump is a technicality.

I'm making a joke little sister. Purple is for rookies remember?
