Because people eat this **** up and use it as an excuse to be racist against white people.

Every teenagers parents ever has told them to change their hair.

This is called sacrificing your parents reputation for political narrative expediency and to look cool to the mob.

I feel so sorry for his parents.

They're probably self loathing whites that welcome this as it forgives their sins.

I was only responding to the person who brought up that Kap didn't want to meet his birth mother. That part, to me, is a very personal choice and I take no issue with however he feels.

As far as him throwing his adopted mom under the bus - he's an absolute clown for that, and it has everything to do with the racist who's got him whipped and changed his entire identity for.

He's GOT to be funneling them BLM money to help pad their retirements.

In Season 8 of Colin Kaepernick:

"Join us see if Colin Kaepernick and BLM donors can get back into the spotlight and get stupid people's money by embarrassing his parents and continuing to drive a wedge between black and white people"

Yep. Never even intended for it to be about black people and police brutality either. He got his 15 minutes (and a lot of money and attention) with that whole political theater stunt, and then he went away.

Then George Floyd happened. And just like Al Sharpton, it's "poof" and he's back on TV for more money and attention.

Dude is a football version of Beto, with a bigger following. Another celebrity with no talent, being a shameless grifter.

Dick head could go play in the CFL or XFL like other talented people that love the hell out of the sport, but chose to (again) sit on his ass and whine because more attention = more money.

It's called being a parent and wanting your kid to not look unkempt. This isn't hard.

Is it normal to use racist stereotypes about minority hairstyles to minorities? Where is this considered normal procedure?

---

Non-traditional hair isn't specific to a race and parent's of all persuasions generally wanted their kids to look their best before we entered this latest anything goes age.

Are my parent's now retroactively homophobes thinking I was trying to be a girl because they didn't like long hair on a straight guy?

---

Im sorry but you're factually incorrect. The history and origin of cornrows/braids can be factually traced back through the black race. It's also long acknowledged and by definition of racist stereotype to baselessly associate that specific hair style with being a thug simple based on the hair style alone. There simply isn't anyway of getting around that reality.

Unfortunately you can't blue star your own post but I'm assuming that's a standard response when being upset at the statement and not being able to refute it with facts. You bet never mentioned being told having cornrows making him look like a thug. Im sorry I think you're missing the facts.

Has our favorite spectre come along to ironically tell us we shouldn't be talking about this on a message board meant to talk about various topics without also providing a guideline of what he deems allowable to talk about on a message board meant to have people talking about things they want to talk about?

I'm sorry but I don't give a ***** His mother didn't like his hair. Mothers have done this throughout time. You don't know what his mom was thinking at the time and just because she didn't like it doesn't make her racist.

We are now at the point that moms are racist for not liking their kids hair but only if it's a black kids hair. What's it like to have a permanent force field where you can simply just cry racism about everything?

BTW, hes factually a racist POS for sacrificing his mothers name to the altar of racial politics.

I was simply pointing out the incorrect fact with what you said, I was not speaking to if you personally cared or not. I've never spoken on what his mom was thinking.

I'm pretty close to accepting biracial Kap and actually black....I just need a few more ridiculous ***** whipped overcompensations from him.

EOT

And I look back on pictures of me in the 70's and think, damn, I wish I would have cut my hair!

Two things:

- I wanted a Mohawk when I was a teen. Mom said similar things.

- Iverson was a little thug.

Dad, '41, Marine, made me shave that "peach fuzz" in 7th grade. So had full beard by the time I was in ninth grade. I began to grow sideburns when they came in style. He told me "those look like sideboards on a sheet wagon, go shave". Later tried a moustache, he said "boy, that looks like hair around a pig's ass". Then came home from college with a 5 day old beard, determined to grow one. He said, "go shave". I said, "no. I'm 21." He said, "You are eating my food". I went and shaved.
Loved that man.

After A&M, early early 90s, I started growing my hair out. Business up front, party in the rear graduated shoulder length mullet. Lived out of state for work, and parents drove 10+ hours to see me for Christmas (and stop with other family on way back). When I opened the door Mom was first, all hugs. Dad looked me in the eye "two questions son.....can I get Lone Star Light in Kansas?, and when are you getting a haircut?" (picture a 6'-4", big Red Forman here)


Fast forward a few years, and I had cut it all off and had a very short buzz cut. Sitting around drinking beer and tying leaders at fish camp, he looked over his glasses and asked "you thought about letting your hair grow..." (I looked up from tying a leader) ...."uh, forget I mentioned that".

Poor Colonoscopy, trying to get a few more seconds of fame.

I cut my hair like Brian Bosworth once - looked like air events above my ears.

My dad looked at me and the only words out of his mouth were "that looks like ****".

Kap was a typical self indulgent football player until, he met an activist queen. She shamed and p whipped him....lol,

I doubt he ever would have started again, he just got beat out by a career journeyman backup.

But he could have easily added 5-6 years to his career in backup roles, worth maybe another $20m collectively

Of course, he probably made more than that from Nike as the woke tax. Being a fake victim pays.

Yes and I'm referencing a specific racist stereotype that involves black children being called thugs for cornrows hairstyle based on nothing but the hairstyle alone. You bet never mentioned having cornrows and being called a thug for having cornrows….. thug isn't a racial term. Calling a minority a thug simply for having cornrows is a racial stereotype by definition of racist and stereotype. No matter what you attempt to convince yourself or how you attempt to move the bar the facts I've stated don't go away or change.

Well factually speaking by definition of racist and stereotype calling a minority a thug or stating they look like one simply for having cornrows, that would be a racist stereotype type. Sorry if that fact is attempting to be swept under the rug and not actually refuted with any facts. Not on a hill or dying even, weird attempts at deflecting.

If you can't be a professional football player, then may as well take a shot at being a professional victim.

https://nypost.com/2023/03/09/colin-kaepernick-accuses-white-adoptive-parents-of-problematic-upbringing/?utm_medium=SocialFlow&utm_campaign=SocialFlow&utm_source=NYPTwitter

Former NFL quarterback Colin Kapernick accused his adoptive parents of "perpetuating racism" in an interview that aired Thursday.

"I know my parents loved me. But there were still very problematic things that I went through," the biracial quarterback said to CBS News.

"I think it was important to show that, no, this can happen in your own home, and how we move forward collectively while addressing the racism that is being perpetuated," he added.

Kaepernick illustrated one specific example of this in the novel, depicting a fight he had with his parents during high school over his hairstyle.

Inspired to braid his hair in cornrows like his hero, NBA star Allen Iverson, Kaepernick recalled receiving pushback from his parents.

"He's getting what rolls?" his mom says in the graphic novel.

Kaepernick said that after styling his hair this way, his mom warned that his hair was "not professional" and he "looked like a little thug."

The former football player-turned-social justice activist said these teenage interactions helped shape his decisions as an adult to embrace his ethnicity.



Is it too late for his adoptive parents to abort him?

---

I met Colin's neighbors years ago in Vegas when he was in college.

Sitting the sport book and they went on and on about how great Colin was and they went to church with his parents and they adopted him, whatever. Their daughter baby sat him.

And here is the gratitude?

Sorry but Kaepernick is a pos.

Don't insult pos's by calling krapenick a pos.....he is worse.

He also says he was specifically trying to emulate Allen Iverson -- a multiple offender criminal (including felonies) regardless of color or skill on the court. I'd like to hear his Mother's side.
