Also, please don't search the words "kaepernick terrorist" today. I suffered so that you don't have to. Thx.— Chris Beige (@3rdAndMiles) August 27, 2016

Before crushing Kaepernick, consider the possibility that not everyone experiences things in the same way.— Jane McManus (@janesports) August 27, 2016
Kaepernick told me that he is fully aware that there will be backlash. He is willing to deal with it: https://t.co/R3pSnMeWdD— Steve Wyche (@wyche89) August 27, 2016
@theNFLchick Make me wonder (being the cynic that I am) to what degree his evolution is a result of no longer being the superstar starter.— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 27, 2016
@theNFLchick But respect either way. I'm rooting for him.— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 27, 2016
Colin Kaepernick sits out the anthem because of how America treats Black people so his mentions are filled with racial slurs & threats.— Amadi (@amaditalks) August 27, 2016

You can't criticize Kaep for thinking America < great but applaud Trump for saying USA needs to be made great. Unless you're an a-hole.— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 27, 2016

Who hurt you? Oh never mind, I see his name right there on the shirt. https://t.co/UQyH1ChyzS— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 28, 2016
Yeah the ashies are gonna definitely go at Kaep for being adopted by a white family and being light skinned. Sad to be able to predict it.— Rod TBGWT (@rodimusprime) August 27, 2016
@rodimusprime No crystal ball or tarot cards required to make that call.— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 27, 2016
#Kaepernick. BLM tool . Black father abandoned family .white mom puts him up for adoption .white family steps up pic.twitter.com/mAzAX5pb0W— Jeff Thomas (@jeffex11) August 28, 2016
I keep telling the faux woke. Don't matter what race mom, dad, wife, kids or whoever may be. What matters is who YOU r. Start judging there.— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 27, 2016
If you insist on judging, that is. Because it technically isn't mandatory to do any more than live and let live.— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 27, 2016

Even with Colin Kaepernick's comments & his decision to not stand for the anthem, the #49ers, Chip Kelly will make football decisions on Kap— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) August 27, 2016
Unless team owner says otherwise cuz tix to sell and it's his team.— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 27, 2016
@AuthorofPatches him disrespecting his own country, this country is an issue.— Jiwano Starshine (@JoshDamage) August 28, 2016
@JoshDamage Beautiful thing abt America is 1 has the right to express dissatisfaction with America. Criticizing Kaep is criticizing America.— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 28, 2016
Since the NFL doesn't require their employyes to stand during the national Anthem, I guess what Kaepernick did wasn't as bad as I thought-— Jiwano Starshine (@JoshDamage) August 28, 2016
Football has surpassed boxing and baseball as America's favorite pastime. So it's the best/biggest stage upon which to take a stand.— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 28, 2016

man it would be really nice if for the whole NFL season every black person in the stands refused to stand during the anthem— Darth Kriss (@insanityreport) August 28, 2016
The day I see that level of racial coordination is the day I wake up from that dream. https://t.co/2faBFtWDYP— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 28, 2016
It takes A LOT to get every single black person in America to be on the same page about something. Obama. OJ. Coming to America.— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 28, 2016

Having a problem w/ over-policing & justice system set up 2 protect rogue cops isn't anti-white by def. Many whites & blacks get this wrong.— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 28, 2016
Perfectly possible 4 Kaepernick or Jesse Williams or whoever 2 love parents & various other white ppl yet also recognize US race disparities— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 28, 2016
But if you're a white person OR a black person who only hears anti-white rhetoric in "black lives matter" battle cry, you'll never get that.— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 28, 2016
.@Kaepernick7 statement rings right now.There's no fkn way there should be near 3 million people in USA prisons. Today's jocks must speak up— Chuck D (@MrChuckD) August 28, 2016
speaking out is good but there is a way to do it.— Jiwano Starshine (@JoshDamage) August 28, 2016

Message on t-shirt or sneakers, not standing or saluting, power fist, hashtag. These are all just protest gestures & gestures only go so far— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 28, 2016
But I suppose they do go further than going along silently.— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 28, 2016
If Kaepernick really wants to bring about change, he needs to follow up his step 1 (which simply drew attn to matter) with concrete actions.— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 31, 2016
Not standing for anthem once was ship that launched 1000 think pieces & 100,000 faux outrage comments. Doing so repeatedly won't move needle— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 31, 2016
There needs to be a phase 2 to Kaep's plan (if a plan is what it is), otherwise just a bunch of post Olympics pre football season noise.— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 31, 2016
Symbolic acts are cool but when lives are at stake we need to move beyond that and get our hands dirty. If nada else, keep Trump out of WH.— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 31, 2016

Not quite so simple as all blacks support Kaep's actions and all whites are pissed at him. Plenty of folks of both races are on both sides.— Roy Pickering (@AuthorofPatches) August 29, 2016
