I don't want to start a fight, but he is the football player who refused to stand for the National Anthem due to the treatment of black people by some police officers. I don't agree with his method, but he does have the right to protest if he wants to.

In my opinion, there is a better way to protest and to get a point across. I wish he did not take this direction even though he has a right to do so.

Yes, well if his intention was to get attention to the cause, he certainly did that!

Having the right to do something doesn't mean it's morally okay!
It's funny you mention him. I live across the street from Seahawks superfans "Mr. and Mrs. Seahawk." Jeff (Mr. Seahawk) was just diagnosed with cancer, and today he named his tumor Kapernick.

I think wearing pig socks was just wrong, and tacky.

@Plethos That is so touching! I'm bringing him a meal soon and I'll let him know that everyone's rooting for him! They are some of the nicest neighbors ever.

People are bored that they're willing to bash anyone that's on the news, what about that so called athelete who was release after 3 months from the charge or raping a student in her sleep? I mean were should we get angry at most? At least he chose to sit down.
