You say that people were more upset over someone taking a knee than someone being murdered. Really?
Yep. Considering it was a prevalent story in the U.S. for what felt like six months after Kaepernick started kneeling, and I bet most people upset over it couldn't even tell you who Castile was.

Why don't you point out all the massive protests in the U.S. over taking a knee that led to riots, and looting? How many businesses were destroyed by people protesting taking a knee? How many people were killed over protests over people taking a knee? How many people were tear gassed, maced, assaulted, shot with rubber bullets, arrested, over taking a knee? Get me some some numbers on all the death and destruction from the taking a knee protests to back up your claim that people were more more upset over someone taking a knee than someone being murdered. I call bullshit!
You're comparing two separate groups of people. That's a miscommunication on my part. I'm not saying that the SAME people are more upset about the murder now, I'm saying that the people who were burning Nike shoes and felt that they had to stop watching their beloved sport because someone hurt their feelings seem to be pretty fucking quiet right now. Where's the outrage?
There are people on this very forum that shit on Kaepernick, and have supported the police brutality at these protests. If you don't see that as a significant problem, then you're the problem.
Also, sort your shit out was a collective your, meaning America. Not you personally. Thats my bad.
