When Americans say they love free speech I laugh. You love it until someone does or says something you disagree with. BOTH the left AND the right.
but your the same way, you just won't admit it.

He was benched and was pissed off at that fact.

F*** y'all losers
Levi AckermanIs A Dangerous Housewife
Wrong Ravens was gone meet and try to sign Kaepernick but he diss Ray Lewis and Steve Bisciotti
Dolphins was interested in signing Colin Kaepernick and he wore Fidel Castro shirt
Broncos and John Elway was gone sign Colin Kaepernick but he wanted more money
So now Colin Kaepernick out of NFL

There were people losing sleep over this man kneeling😂😂😂
white nationalism for ya
God forgive me 😂 this comment got me dead 😭
Nah, all that happen ed was he wants to be a slave again.
For real though. It's so sad. The amount of people I have heard call him unpatriotic, disrespectful, etc.... It's a fucking song. You give it all the power it has. So pathetic how murders are somehow less important than a silly ass tradition.
RIP George Floyd
This is why he knelt.
Yo what that dude knelt on his head
Yea colin kaepernick decided to reenact what happened (he’s a time traveler)
Amen!
Ye, he knew about Floyd's death in 2016. XD

Billy Bloomer yes but it’s another thing by disrespecting those who’s blood were spilled and died for the flag. He’s shitting where he’s eating
I don’t see any violence on his acting, but I do see it on the news, shouldn’t you be more offended about that?
He is not disrespecting anyone. Shut the fuck up and realize the struggle of black people in a fascist US

George Floyd couldn’t breathe from a police officer that kneeled on his neck. Colin kneeled in the National Anthem to protest police brutality... if this doesn’t get you in empathetical thought, I don’t know what will
TrueMiz sorry I’m young and I’ve been trying to figure it out I know it’s disrespectful but can you explain it’s not sarcasm I’m genuinely lost
ViseVersa TP
Kapernick kneeled because of police brutality for example what happened with George Floyd , but kapernick got a bunch of hate
Colin is a loser that likes to cause problems
b kelly, How is he a loser? He was kneeling to let everyone know that racism needs to be taken into action to be reduced. He didn’t cause any problems. He gave up his career to make sure millions knew equality and equity mattered. This was years ago. You are probably angry because you dislike the 49ers. That’s not the case here. Just chill. Keep your opinions to yourself.
Orange Apple You are talking to brain dead people my man (people hating free speech)
I’m in the 4th episode of his docu series on Netflix and I must say I am proud of him for taking a stand for the black community he gave his career up for what he believed in and for that God will always bless him and he is highly favored Salute to you ✊🏾🖤🤎

Gustavo Bjiornson so if a random black guy was in the car and get shot for no reason . How the hell he meant to follow the rules
How poetically tragic. 3 years ago this guy 'took a knee' to protest police brutality against black men (which was in fact the first time I had ever heard of that action). 3 years later, a policeman brutally 'takes a knee' on the neck of a black man for 8 minutes 46 seconds. You can't make this stuff up.
Wasn’t on the neck, turns out overdose, maybe we should wait until the coroners notes come out and the full body cam footage instead of jumping to conclusions
Repeating "I can't breathe" for 8 minutes and 46 seconds. This man needed to become a freaking seal if he can stay underwater for that long. You can't make this stuff up.

Aj, did that happen
"they are disrespecting the military", understand there are lots of black male soldiers in the military that happen to be young & guess how they're are treated when they're not in uniform... who's really disrespecting the military???
#ThankYou
Vicitimize yourself more - maybe you should start working instead of complaining.
Analyze Perspective So he's also disrespecting black military personnel. You do understand that a white person can disrespect another white person right? Lol 😂
@Anthony Rosalia And??? There's men who look like him who aren't being seen as equal and being mistreated in the same nation.
As a veteran who served.. I 100% agree with what he did
"the home of the free and the land of the brave" - sounds like what he is doing to me
I think people are absolutely ignorant to disagree with his protest. One of their claims is that “he is disrespecting the military”. If anything he is honor our military by using his right that was fought for by soldiers. In America we are supposed to be treated equally, have the same rights and equally justice, and if this is not shown in America all the time then what are we standing for? We’re are standing for a lie or what America “should be” instead or “what it is”. The sad and hard truth is that racism and injustice still exist in our country. So what’s wrong with a man risking his job and using his large platform to gain attention and to protest against the injustice in our country? I absolutely cannot find the wrong in this. *hint- this is coming from a veteran’s kid.
@Frank The Tank thats not in your rights at all
Frank The Tank I agree 100%. Nothing can change my mind.
@@idontknowman6277 well yea I can't change ur mind, like they say "arguing with a smart person is hard, but arguing with a stupid person is even harder".

I love how much easier it is to trigger the right than the left 🤣
It's about the same really
It triggered people from both sides. Anybody that respects, was within, or had family and friends in the military got triggered by this big middle finger. It doesn't matter which political party they lean towards when they are all Americans sharing the same cause.
I mean statistically most ppl are right handed...
Men can't become women

AllNike13 It’s an attack on the people. He’s not properly protesting. He doesn’t want America to change. He wants America to cease to exist by attacking majorities while supporting Communist ideologies. He’s not a good person.
Miller Theory This is this direct opposite of an attack and the whole point of him doing this was to draw attention and create a change. You sound ignorant..
Asia I am ignorant. Ignorant of the pains of Communism.
Miller Theory Please explain to me how kneeling shows that he wants America to “cease” to exist.
Ebony Tatmon Ebony Tatmon Russian and German Revolution of 1919. If you don’t know that, then, well... And he’s not protesting the right way. He’s attacking America itself by kneeling for the FLAG! Black ppl need to admit they’re doing stuff wrong instead of constantly blaming white ppl. It’s racist and brings blacks and whites down.
Eric Reid & Colin Kaepernick.i respect them both
There are bigger problems than someone making peaceful protest. All he’s doing is trying to raise awareness. if he don’t wanna stand for the national anthem, SO BE IT. Stop bugging this dude and get a life.
Edit: LMAO THIS WAS A YEAR AGO AND Y’ALL STILL ANGRY-
swishy boi that’s not a “song” dude that’s our precious anthem that a lot of people died for, you can’t just do that and get away with it, this guy should not disrespect the anthem “take a knee” what the fuck dude, we Americans MUST stand for our anthem and our flag, that’s not about boycotting nike or shit, this is about respect.

@@fairlandfishing3237 TRIGGERED
He’s the one bugging the American people. No one’s bugging him. That makes literally no sense.
This man has done his part. Let's do our part, change this world.
But I’m confused why so many people called him a jerk or hated him for that?
FBI we got em They didnt want to see a black man advocating for what he believed in
JimboParadox I disagree with that because it woll incite a cycle of murder of violence as police would become more cautious of civilians and civilians become more fearful of police. And not every cop is bad. Ive met some amazing people who also happened to be officers. What if those 5 officers Micah killed were genuinely good people who wanted to serve their community. Violence isnt the answer, reforming the police department and holding them accountable for their actions is what will make a change in our nation
JimboParadox we talk and we talk but no actually takes action. We protest but never try to create bills to change the police department. We dont lobby for bills to be laws. We dont vote for the people who would accurately represent us. In killing cops it only paints the picture that the BLM movement is nothing more than terrorist organization and it’ll create a stigma that when black people are upset that we’d rather use our fists and guns than our words and knowledge to make a change. An eye for an eye will only make the world blind
He did his part by disrespting the flag. By disrespecting the hard workers who serve their country. It’s unacceptable.
He should have protested differently . Disrespecting all those people and his country is unjustified
“ He’s intitled to his opinion we fought for that ... “ I just think he’s a jerk”
Ok America
Thinking that somebody is a jerk is also part of freedom of expression. I don't see the problem here.

@Austin Madore I didn't state my opinion. I only said that thinking somebody is a jerk and even saying it out loud is part od freedom of expression.

@@Kevin-hn7en Hes not standing up for anything, hes a massive hypocrite who will kneel for the anthem, but cant speak out against actual human rights violations.
When Colin Kaepernick was taking a Knee for National Anthem and got all this backlash, this rally broke me and any hope for the USA.
I am from Germany. I always get from Americans the question why we don’t show pride? Do we not have pride in what we have achieved? We did saw children together, injected them chemicals and made furniture from their bones. We try to learn from this. And the first lesson is, that pride is shown by action not symbols. We are always skeptical when someone is running around with a symbol to show his pride, but his actions undermine Human Dignity and the Constitution. There is a line between pride and blind nationalism.
Kaepernicks action did not undermine the constitution, it did embrace it!
May and American explain to me how his action was disrespectful, by demanding Human Dignity?
And Germans have remained the same fascist as in the 30's and 40's. Worst people I have encountered in Europe as an European myself. Also I thought at least you were brave, but the amount of cowardness you show in front of every shopping mall where by default young immigrant boys gather. You just lower your head and run like chicken. Of course you are very "brave" when you are taking a stand against Orthodox Christian Slavic european nations, like when you supported the bombing of Serbia in 1999 You disgust me
It’s disrespectful to do it behind the people in the military uniforms.
He is an opportunist and is actually very dumb when you hear him speak, that’s why he doesn’t talk much.
This was at a time when he was benched for his performance and was replaced by a very bad QB, he protested shortly AFTER that.
It was a very lucrative move for him, signing all kinds of deals and has some people actually compare him to Muhammad Ali, which is such a disrespect to that man
Undermining the constitution is being against kaepernick and being against flag burnings
@likesfavorites3388tyranny is conditioning or forcing people blindly support a nation that they disagree with, it’s tyrannical to imprison people for people burning their own flags, it’s tyrannically to social punish people for protesting and kneeing for the anthem. The founding fathers wrote the first amendment to prevent tyranny or abuse of power from the government even though congress wanted to ban burnings of privately owned flags ironically doing what the founding father’s would’ve hated
He really got kicked out for this can’t believe it

@@kennethstokes5102cry your self to sleep
Only took a cop to knee on someone's throat to get the message. Yet there will still be people that somehow think kneeling during the national anthem is more offensive than murder. It's also known that kneeling in the military is a form of honoring falling soldiers as a sign of respect and by definition contradicts being disrespectful.
Collin was not kneeling to honor the falling soldiers at all dude
@@michaelflorczyk1394 no kidding?🤦♂️ don't misconstrue what i said the same way people misconstrue the reason Kaepernick was kneeling. He's repeatedly stated he's kneeling for all the dead black people unjustly murdered who can't speak up among other things and has addressed his stance Multiple times and it was suggested to him by a Green Beret vet to kneel to honor them instead of sitting on the bench and not standing. people who remain ignorant or stupid willfully choose to do so.

Macho Nacho u unpatriotic commie loving anti America sackless vag owner
When Rosa Parks sat in the front of the bus, well they said it wasn't the right way to protest; when MLK marched through the bridge in Selma, well they said that wasn't the right way; when Malcolm X told us to arm ourselves and defend ourselves by any means necessary, well they said that wasn't the right way; when Tommie Smith and John Carlos each raised a black-gloved fist well, they said that wasn't the right way; when Kaepernick kneeled, they also said it wasn't the right way. Now we're protesting everyday in every state of this country and they say it's not the right way... There's never gonna be a right way for the oppressor and that's why we keep on doing it anyway. Until it's ok. Because when the AR15 carriers in Michigan did it to protest the shelter in place orders, well, that was ok for them.
Peace
Profund. Then they try to smear the peaceful protesters by bringing in white nationalists to start riots. But we prevailed and didn't allow them to change the narrative that we are fighting against police brutality.

Name Last Name First protesting racism is never a bad thing. But I disagree with you when you say that MANY (by definition implying majority)officers randomly shoot black people and get away with it. There are unjust shootings of black people, but you are no more likely to get shot by police than if you are white. When you look at fatal shootings of people (that includes all races), they are not shot because someone felt like it. They are shot because there is reason to or because police are not adequately trained to handle the situation. There are instances of racism, don’t get me wrong, but the perpetrator is punished 99% of the time if that occurs. I think the attitude that minorities are hated and will be brought down at every turn simply is not true and does more harm than good
He took the most humble and highest position God created our bodies to do. Kneel and honor the mighty as the anthem is going. God honors his child who sees and respects God openly and unashamed. I had the upmost honor and respect for this beautiful man. It's not about everyone else it's a prayer to God to have mercy on this country.
It's sad how blind people are and just not see the true act of this act that than say they love the Lord...prove it.
Standing in my opinion is stupid and easy, if you are true to your higher power , TAKE A KNEE and bow to the King of Kings.
This.poor dude has dealt with racism for ever.when ppl say land of the free home of the brave r we really free ? Are we brave to stand up 4 wht we belive in.dude did nothing wrong.i love wht he is doing and agree
.ppl are suck karens.if ppl ar against then the anthem shld no longer excist for wht
@@smiles_87. u need school first
@@jeffdunham5150 u need god
@@smiles_87. I don’t think you really realize this ,but this is a free country if you don’t think this is a free country try going to North Korea or China ,and let the government choose what you watch and what you wear and what you say. The United States is protected by the people who fought in the wars and by kneeling it shows a disrespect to those people who fought for the homeland. Without those people fighting none of us would live the lives we do today.
@@blakehager2543 you forgot that we are also free to stand up for what we believe in. Kaepernik kneeled and did nothing to hurt anyone. Get over it. Many soldiers actually understand why he did it and don’t get offended. Maybe next time, listen to his reasoning for doing it instead of going in with a preconceived notion about it. If there a literal soldiers who don’t get offended by it, I think you can get over it. I bet you’re also the type to say, “Protest peacefully please” aren’t you?

People: listening to what he is saying
Me: wondering how on earth he fits that Afro into his helmet 1:38
Joey82 2.0 he braids it. then picks it out after the game
9-dash-lies aqua that's racist.
I honestly Respect Colin kaepernick For that Period .
Colin Kaepernick is trash he was wrong he should have been standing up so because of that he was fired from the nfl and they dont want him anymore. dont protest on nfl time protest on off season out side the nfl and if you play for any team and sport you stand you ass up.
@@aseymore2826 his ass should have been standing up and should have waited to protest on off season out of the nfl or posted how he feels on twitter or facebook.
@@aseymore2826 he got fired from the nfl for the bs he did.
@UCPvMJ5fkHJRCY5-LonfU_9g he was disrespectful and disrespecting the united states military by not standing up for the national anthem so im happy his nfl days are over with forever now you stand for the national anthem and you kneel for the cross.
stand for the flag kneel for the cross
I just don’t want him sitting in front on me in a movie theater, thats all😂🤪😂
WE LOVE YOU COLIN KAEPERNICK!!!!!!! ✊🏼
Black lives matter!
Vow....what a MAN. Agree with him or not, call him a hero or a traitor, you gotta acknowledge that once an action that only made by a 1 person, now 1 year later, is being done by HUNDREDS of people across the NFL...I wonder what these all will lead to. Here I am in NFL 2017 Week 3. Maybe I can get back to this video years later and see how much of a negative/positive change this man did
Kobe Bryant the g.o.a.t well because of his actions the NFL has decided not to play the national anthem anymore so soldiers and veterans who fought and bled and the ones who died to protect freedom will no longer be honored at football games. Meanwhile black on black crime is happening don't see football players talking about that. They instead say the cops are racist even though the majority of police involved shootings of a black man the cop is justified. Like Michael Brown the cop was justified. Michael Browns hands were not up the bullet trajectories proves this Michael Browns own body proves the officers story. Colin Kapernick deserved to be fired and as well as the rest of these football players. They have no respect for the military whatsoever.
Nike sponsored him and there has been a lot of hate towards Nike.
@@HeartBleeds4U "protect freedom" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@ErikTheRed99 you think American soldiers dying on the battlefield to protect America's freedom is a joke. There's a cold place in hell for people like you.
@@HeartBleeds4U How many wars since you gained independence were fought on American soil?
How many was s of aggression have America started on foreign soil since you gained independence?
I guess carpet bombing Iraq to rubble in the search for WMD's that don't exist is protecting Americas freedom right?
That's that fine American education system coming to the fore again.

@@thatfrenchfryyouleftintheb7028 wtf
1:40 "Cops that are murdering people." What about the brave police officers who defend our citizens from crime? 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
I cannot understand why they are not taught that when a cop says stop, you stop. It’s so simple.
@@butterflygirl3359”they” are lol. doesn’t always work out anyway
Same people who were criticising his decision to kneel 3 years ago the same ones agreeing now.
Funny how that works
some of them still disagree.
I mean isnt that a good thing? Means more people are actually getting the point every year...funny how that works.
actually, i’m the other way around. i thought it right 3 years ago, and now i find it stupid, a bad place to protest, and disrespectful to america. i actually opened my eyes and did my research and realized that when in comes to race equality, theres no slavery nor segregation and blacks have the same rights and freedom as whites.
@@saklee1777 same right on paper, but not quiet in practice. better to inconvenience and upset people in the name of truth and what's right than let the wrong continue and be comfortable (and only the ppl that aren't the targets of racism are comfortable with it).
@@saklee1777 keep digging homie. its more subtle than that.

I support Colin Kaepernick....
Zero tolerance for police abuse, zero tolerance for inhumane practices, zero tolerance for torture of any kind....
COLIN kapernic is the most patriotic, most intelligent, .most caring , .most daring citizen of America.
he has said so many horrible things
He wasn’t ahead of his time y’all wake up and see that we’re behind on ours. BLM
You're absolutely right. I don't understand why people are saying he was "ahead of his time" this is not the first time a black man has been a victim of police brutality.
Thank you Colin Kapernick for standing for what's right. #JusticeForFloyd
thanks for being a race traitor who never bothered to look at crime stats.
@@mikemanners118 tf does race traitor mean?!
Why is this in my recommended when everyone almost a forgot about this ?😂😂
Yo literally in my recommendations to,,I think it's because some team want to hire him again but the internet still doesn't forgive him for kneeling.
Kaepernick is paying tribute to Tim Tebow how sweet, Tebow sure started something , now all the NFL players are Tebowing, it's nice to see so many God loving football players..
If he is a jerk what is trump?? Lolol
Twitter fact checking him and he is mad
Your president
@@BarackObama-yc1ey funny lololol but he dont represent me at all
American's get so patriotic about a flag and an anthem, he's not doing it to spite those who have served. It's about police brutality and racism. This was his biggest platform to protest. It worked, everyone across the world is talking about it.
stuiep1983 and I will continue to kneel with him
He is disgusted disrespectful person that ever lived
Sierra Merritt lmfao
its the wrong time to do it theres a different time and place for it
@@BDA_Empire69 No I believe everyone should see this act.
And they asked why he kneeled
🙏 I remember watching a poem and it went like “I pledge allegiance to your flag of the United States of American and to your republic for witch it stands one nation under god individual for liberty and justice for who? For you? For them? Or for some”
Love you Colin Kaepernick. You stood up for us and for whats right and i salute you. .My step brother died in Iraq fighting for this country but i know if he was alive he d be kneeling with you
Greetings from Australia. Kaepernick's decision to kneel seems so right to me, particularly with all that's taking place now.
How is that disrespectful? When praying - you kneel, when seeking guidance - you kneel, when you are proposing to someone - you kneel.. 🧐 you just said that because trump tweeted it three years ago
You're brainwashed, mate.
@@Provemewrongwithfacts prove it with facts then
@@flacortw Okay, he lost his starting job, and the very next week he kneeled. If he's starting he's not kneeling. That's a fact. He doesn't care about black people. It's all about him and his humiliation for being benched.
I’m gonna kneel in my school lmao
I did that as a social experiment and one friend hit me and picked me up. The teachers eyed me down. And one person joined me
Travis Ghiloni jr BahahahaHa
@@alexceballos2802 I thought it would be alot worse but hey I made it out alive and without injury I take that as a win
For a country that breathes and shits patriotism, it’s normal to care for a stupid anthem rather than respecting a human or life itself.
it all makes sense now...🖤🖤
🤔 I still love those socks
Oh really? Why don’t you go talk to the families of police officers that were killed on duty. I mean really great honorably police officers. Look they’re children in the eyes and tell them they’re dad’s sacrifice to protect other people was worthless. I support honorable police officers. I hope one day you realize that police officers are human and a good majority of them aren’t racist and are outstanding cops and people.
I don’t know man stfu, he has the right to wear those socks, the amount of innocent lives that have been lost because of racist police officers, I understand that there are many amazing and understand police officers that do their job correctly and serve the country right, however he’s showing a sign to the racism that occurs from many cops against black people, so stfu
SAME HAHAHA
@@idontknowman6277 ur missing the point they are not saying all police officers
This young man is right
He's not young and he shouldn't be kneeling. If I were the NFL I would fine and ban him from the NFL. The Anthem has nothing to do with racial stuff and you can stand for our countries freedom for 1 minute and 15 seconds. Kaepernick is stupid.
I think ur stupid for replying to this when the whole problem is over
KCChiefsFan14819 and your a self righteous asshole. He’s kneeling because of what the anthem symbolizes. Calm the fuck down
KCChiefsFan14819 I agree with you and it’s so sad so many people think he is doing something right.
@@KCChiefsFan-ll5tv In the third verse, it says "No refuge is safe for the hireling and slave" so it kinda does have to do with race
americans: FREEDOM OF SPEECH!
colin kaepernick: *kneels in protest of police brutality*
americans: haha not like that
Literally the most peaceful protest in the history of man kind, but y’all still had a problem with it.
You know?
1:16, those socks remind me of the movie “Fritz the Cat”
50 years from now they will be a movie about this man true hero on how to deal with racism
Oh trust me the movie is coming way sooner than that, but yes he is a true hero, he has more balls than all of the NFL MLB and the NBA put together, I have nothing but major respect for Collin kapernick...
Man screwed his whole career 😂
GOOD FOR YOU MY BROTHER!!! JUST DO IT!
Shut up morty
Colin Kaepernick is the Rosa Parks of our time.
Thank you. Great protest
Just no
Kaepernick is uncle Rico now! 😂
And here we are in 2020 still facing police brutality..... Rest In Peace Mr. Floyd
@@franksanz1044 depends on the color of your skin...
@@mbombo2725 Explain Tony Timpa, a white man killed the same way Floyd was, before Floyd. It got no major media attention. They only care when it fits an agenda (the black victim agenda).
@@franksanz1044 did Floyd resist arrest??? No!
@@sebastianburutsa2897 Yes...yes he did. I'm assuming you didn't watch the body cam?
@@dreamdream1031 that does not mean you kill them now if had a gun and shot at the cop ok shoot back but to put you knee on someone’s knew for 9 minutes and they say they can’t breath ya that fucked
Nothing but major respect for Collin kapernick. Stay strong brother and stay steadfast in what u believe. I support u 1000 percent. You are more man than any of the cowards who oppose you...
Conservatives: WE HATE CANCEL CULTURE!!
Also conservatives: tries to cancel kaepernick for expressing first amendment rights.
@Billy Evans how is he a criminal.
@Billy Evans so you're saying that if you have a problem with your country and decide to voice your opinion you're a criminal and should be charged.
@Billy Evans Who is he defending?
And PS, the police do a good job demonizing themselves
Speech may be free but for him it was very costly.
Americans need another MLK to fix them straight I guess LMAO
He took a knee for the red on the flag which represents the blood of native Americans too
Exactly my man
Just because you're military does not mean you're deserving of respect.
The worship of military is one of the worst societal ills in the United States of America.
