Stephen A. Smith goes IN on Colin Keapernick for not voiting

[hayesc0]

Is he a resident of California because if so it wouldn't have mattered for president.

 

[Detroit Wave]

Its not about Hillary, its the local contests that has a bigger chance in making changes with Police practices, judges, etc. The President can't affect any of that state and local issues like elected DA's, Mayors, etc...

Oh yea voting locally is exponentially more important than presidential elections no doubt

 

[ORDER_66]

Yet again blame the black man for not wanting to give his vote to two equally bad candidates on both sides of the party... it's within his right to NOT vote... besides it would NOT have made the difference concerning the electoral college... Lets keep it fukking 100 here.

 

[David_TheMan]

A big % of the people who hate kaepernick are in the polls voting. They are voting in politicians who are going to continue to create the type of gov't that allows police officers to get off killing blacks.

He is at home doing nothing. His jersey also became on of the best sellers in the NFL, a lot of people are looking up to dude. He's sending the message that they just shouldn't vote.

Especially not understanding him when is reasoning is just that he disliked both Clinton/Trump. A lot of people felt that way and still went to the polls.

If they support police killing of course it will be endorsed.
If they no longer support it politically the change will come.

He is out helping kids, building foundations, and doing the same things we were giving him props before nothing has changed in what he has done and the positive results of what he has done.

Keep repeating that vote or die mantra though, I see its a religious thing with you.

 

[Easy-E]

I get being apathetic towards the government, and the shytty candidates........but you vote to try to change that

People need to stop acting as if the problem isn't the system, not the participates.

Assuming he lives in San Fran, there was 24 measures up for vote and a few of them are directly related to what he said he was going to do in the community...

exactly. shyt that matters directly where hes at

 

[JahBuhLun]

He doesn't need a politician if he's out there doing work himself, last week he just had a meeting or summit about people knowing their rights. And in terms of the weed vote, he can't smoke it while he's in the league sooo.

 

[loyola llothta]

look how fast the sheeps turn on they own

 

[Bone$]

Fukk Stephen a c00n ass.. Calling him irrelevant on his twitter.. He's too smart to do this without know exactly what he's doing

One of the most ignorant and uninformed posts I've read in a while

 

[JLova]

as already stated. he can write in or select none of the above for president. theres dozens of other things on the bay area ballot at the city and state levels that affect those citizens much more than anything the president does. he doesnt care enough to have an opinion there. undermines anything he says

What is the difference between writing in someone and writing in no one? I think everyone should vote but I can understand not voting if there's a valid reason.

People who disagree with him will find any reason to diminish what he has done. The same poeple that gave trump a pass for being a racist, mysoginist, xenophobic c*nt.

Stephen A got white people agreeing with him wholeheartedly so you know he full a sh1t.

Yo @HDKG_ I rest my case

True, but what if he doesn't trust any of them? I'd like to hear why he voted? I've voted before and had no idea who the local people were on the ballot at times. Then there were times I disliked all of them. I ended up picking the lesser evil but what did that do exactly?
