Colin Kaepernick calls for abolishing police and prisons in new essay (drugs, radical)

There has never been a civilized society in history that did not have some sort of policing power and punishment system. Calls to abolish the police and prisons are basically a call to return to barbarism. I don’t own a gun, but if you, Colin Kaepernick, and the rest of you leftists that are pushing this bizarre and unworkable idea get your way, I’ll be buying one. Or two.

Someone needs to tell Kaepernick that the "afro" went out in the 70's.

He is really completely "white" to be honest. Raised white and used to look like this before he grew that hair to pretend to be black.



The biggest question is, why do people "choose to be black"?

Tiger Woods had an Asian mother. No one EVER mentions that. Why?

Kamala Harris is 1/2 American Indian. No one cares?

Lewis Hamilton is 1/2 white, yet is has all black things going on with hair, tattoos, and he only mentions black. Why? His white mom means nothing?

It seems people want to be black instead of white. Here is my guess. If you are black and do well you are amazing. If you are white, you are the norm.

Barack Hussein Barry Dunham Soetoro Obama is half Caucasian. But for 8 years his supporters pretended he was African American.

Wouldn't it be great for some people if they could go around and victimize whomever they choose with no consequence?

He would be robbed by his own people

And replace it with what? Nothing, since pro football is too violent?

The prisons are physically still there.

Look at prisons in other countries like Iseland(forgot exactly where). But it’s less hostile and actually has way less recidivism..
