Jobless Quarterback Colin Kaepernick Trashes America on Independence Day
By Donn Marten
Former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick’s odds of landing an NFL job continue to grow longer by the day.
Never before has a marginally talented backup received so much attention as the mediocre militant whose decision to become the sports figurehead for anti-cop, anti-American social justice warriors has made him radioactive to NFL owners.

There has been much carping and bellyaching that Kaepernick’s continued inability to get a new NFL gig is racism and amounts to blackballing, but he continues to be his own worst enemy with inflammatory tweets like this one where he compared police to slave catchers.
A system that perpetually condones the killing of people, without consequence, doesn’t need to be revised, it needs to be dismantled! pic.twitter.com/BVVPVZIQyD

His follow-up to that beauty came on the Fourth of July while he was visiting the African country of Ghana to discover his roots.
How can we truly celebrate independence on a day that intentionally robbed our ancestors of theirs? To find my independence I went home. pic.twitter.com/hniYGJeLxG

Yahoo Sports reports on the latest provocation in the story “On July 4, Colin Kaepernick talked about his trip ‘home’ to Ghana”:
If the NFL is waiting for Colin Kaepernick to give in to some ridiculous notion that he must tell the world he’s focused on playing football and nothing else, that’s not going to happen.
Kaepernick remains unsigned, but he’s not letting it affect his life. On July 4, Kaepernick posted on social media about his trip “home” to Ghana.
Kaepernick started a longer Instagram post about the trip with the Frederick Douglass quote, “What have I, or those I represent, to do with your national independence?” Here’s what Kaepernick wrote:
“In a quest to find my personal independence, I had to find out where my ancestors came from. I set out tracing my African ancestral roots, and it lead me to Ghana. Upon finding out this information, I wanted to visit the sites responsible for myself (and many other Black folks in the African Diaspora) for being forced into the hells of the middle passage. I wanted to see a fraction of what they saw before reaching the point of no return.
“I spent time with the/my Ghanaian people, from visiting the local hospital in Keta and the village of Atito, to eating banku in the homes of local friends, and paying my respects to Kwame Nkrumah’s Memorial Park.
“I felt their love, and truly I hope that they felt mine in return.”
Is posting all of this on July 4 a bit defiant, especially after San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch said in a recent radio interview he told Kaepernick: “I think you are having a little bit of an image crisis in terms of, not so much what you did last year, but people are wondering: Is this most important to you?” Probably. Even if Kaepernick doesn’t think he’s being defiant, the conservative NFL that would rather sign Blaine Gabbert and EJ Manuel before him probably thinks it is. It’s not right, but it probably won’t help him get signed anytime soon.
Kaepernick has been touring foreign lands during his involuntary hiatus from pro football and there are many who feel that he should stay there if he hates America so much.

I think when Coliin left the limelight of the NFL, we should have restored his private life back to him and considered him no more. It would appear it’s the media having a hard time of letting him go and respecting his privacy. Is it really important to anyone else at the end of the day what Colin thinks of himself or his choices?
Smart man. Can’t play football gotta go where the money is. Government liberals own everything. Go ahead and shill. They’ll get you a book deal and you wont have to write a thing. Hello? Barack?
