It looks like Kaepernick was even more radical about his “Black Lives Matter” protest than was previously known, as pictures surfaced today from training camp showing what he really thinks of cops.
From the Big Lead:
Pictures from training camp back on August 10th (h/t: CBS Sports) show Kaepernick wearing socks that depict a police officer as a pig. The image above also captured him walking on to the practice field with a raised fist.
Here are the pics:
OK, so I really believed people were overdoing it with their vitriol against Kaepernick who seemed more misguided than anything else. But this is truly disgusting. There has to a limit to how a player can abuse the platform afforded him by being a player in the NFL. He needs to be cut today.
The point has been made before but there are two things Kaepernick could have done to keep his opinion and be less destructive. He could put his money where his mouth is and support inner city programs that help disadvantaged kids, and maybe even volunteer. But even if he wanted to keep his idiotic protest, he could have performed acts of symbolism outside of the NFL. Instead he forced other players to have to respond to his idiocy.
I hope the cops declare his mansion a “no-go zone.” Let the a-hole defend himself.
