Freedom of speech! Freedom of oppression?

in sports •  7 years ago 

Last season we all witnessed 49ers previous starting quarterback Colin Kaepernick refusing to stand during the national anthem. Well this year other players are getting involved and also refusing to stand during national anthem. 1-25.jpg

Do you believe their actions are justifiable? My opinion is yes tell me yours.

          I believe it justifiable for a few reasons:

          1. The media is painting this as an individual thing. Not Kaepernick because I assure racism is no individual offense. He is protesting because of the shootings. He's trying to get america to see how people of color are treated just because they're not professional athletes or soldiers.
