So he shouldn't get paid because he didn't vote??

Having a democratic country means he has to freedom to not vote, to vote for whomever he wants or to protest.

Are you against democracy??

But protesting is a democrat right? Obviously I am not okay with the violence that is occurring, but there are thousands of peaceful protesters out there, and them protesting is their democrat freedom.

How does that make me twofaced*? I believe in following and supporting democratic freedoms. I support Trump winning because that is how democracy works. But along with supporting the peoples vote, I also have to support their democratic right to protest, or them not voting. #democracy

Why is it when people don't have the exact same opinion as you you feel the need to try and shut them up? Or saying they shouldn't be paid because of it?

But you seem to be missing the point, it is their democrat freedom to protest. If the Republicans wanted to protest Obama they were free to do so.

So if Kaepernick wanted to practice his democratic freedom to not vote, or to protest during the national anthem he is free to do so. You may not like it, but it is his democratic freedom to do so.

It is just funny how someone can preach so loudly about how Trump won democratically, telling others to get over it but then tries to bring down other democratic freedoms.

Maybe you should "get over" to protests since it is all democracy right? Or do you only care about democracy when it pulls in favour of things you support?

Kaepernick Refused To Stand With The National Anthem. Now That He's Jobless, He's Changed His Mind.

He's never really been a #1 QB, as free agent if a team needs a #2 or #3 QB. They may pick him up cheap.

I do not see him going to a team as there #1 QB..... even the Cleveland Browns. lol

Added later: wonder who has his rights in the CFL.

Okay got it.

I see a person making a harmless protest, which in both the US & Canada is permitted. It doesn't matter if I or one else disagree or agrees, if it is peaceful protest he (or anyone else) has that right.
