I am a Conservative and proud of it. However, Kaepernick has the right to do what he did. Again, my beef is his political posturing afterwards. The facts simply don't back some of the beliefs of oppression. In watching an opinion program tonight, one African American guest wanted to make the point that if Kaepernick wanted to talk "oppression," then he should talk about the 57 shootings in the last 3 days in Chicago. This lady said that when a parent has to consider her child walking to school to be one of the most dangerous things her child can do, that's oppression. She said that when a parent believes that if you send your child out into the back yard to play, you are putting your child's life in danger, that oppression.
Well, I could go on and on but I don't want to ruin my standing here in this fine community.
