I disagree because I feel Kaepernick has gone about about it in entirely the wrong way. If this is really that important to him, he could do more than get down on one knee during the National Anthem.
I'm sure his objections are important, but I feel his ego and reputation meant more. With his money and position, he could have held press conferences, possibly started some programs for disadvantaged black kids to keep them off the streets and out of trouble. He would have gained a lot of attention AND good will and gotten a much more receptive audience for his message.
But no...he has managed to alienate and aggravate most NFL fans, (to the point of burning their jerseys, hats and general sports paraphernalia), and is not getting his protest info out there.
Sorry...I feel he has screwed the pooch, and created more hate, distrust and anger...and all he has had to do is kneel down on one knee. He makes an absurd amount of money and does nothing with it for anyone or anything...he is a putz.
