The protest has always been retarded for that reason, simply replace Trump with police. The original point was supposedly that cops kill blacks. So to protest cops Kaepernick refused to honor the flag. Rather than claiming police behavior was dishonoring the flag, he connected the police to the flag. As a result, instead of talking negatively about the police like he wanted, he started a negative discussion about himself acting unAmerican. Then a bunch of other imbeciles started joining him proving none of them are capable of logical thought or effective use of iconography.

Fuck yes. You said it perfectly. The cops that act out of line are just as disrespectful to the country as the nigs taking a knee. First time ive heard someone else put it this way and it couldn't be anymore right

I actually thought about this tonight.

A better way for him to have made his point would have been to say that he was kneeling as respect for his fellow Americans who lost their lives to police brutality.

But it wouldn't be race baiting or anti-American enough.

They're just fucking mouth breathers anyway.
