Excerpt:
SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- [U]San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick has willingly immersed himself into controversy by refusing to stand for the playing of the national anthem in protest of what he deems are wrongdoings against African Americans and minorities in the United States.
His latest refusal to stand for the anthem -- he has done this in at least one other preseason game -- came before the 49ers' preseason loss to Green Bay at Levi's Stadium on Friday night.
"I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color," Kaepernick told NFL Media in an exclusive interview after the game. [/U]
Everyone has a right to freedom of speech and the right to protest. I appreciate when protests are chosen to be non-violent.
That said, the very country that is affording this right is represented by flag and the National Anthem.
Consequently, he is protesting the very thing that is giving him this right.
Find another platform.
Better yet, move out of the country.
