I don't think this guy is as well-versed as you might think, but opinions vary. A lot of his answers are just vague responses to Larry's questions. There isn't much 'meat on the bone' in his answers, so to speak.
At any rate, he's a rapper. He has a built in platform to say whatever he wants at his job. That IS his job. There are a billion miles between his situation and that of those who want to use the first amendment as justification for protesting the flag while they are on the job, which the first amendment very clearly does not protect. That's like comparing apples to the moon. There IS no comparison.
By the way, his take on cops - he doesn't 'fear' them, but he doesn't put himself in a place where he has to deal with them - is wise, and it is also my take, and should be everyone's take. I would wager to say there are many militant people, white and black, who are dead today because they didn't understand antagonizing the guy with the gun, right or wrong, is a pretty dumb idea.
He also says Obama is responsible for the animosity between races. I couldn't agree more.
I'm sure there is a reason Kaepernick doesn't vote. He says this:
So he doesn't trust the democratic 'system' and yet he uses its principles to justify his 'protests'. Voting is actually a designed form of 'protest'. He is the very definition of a moron. He is clearly uneducated and has no idea what he's talking about. He's spewing nonsense put in his low IQ brain by a muslim activist masking as a radio host in...wait for it...Oakland. What 'system', I wonder, does he support? Pan-Africa? LMAO again. That fool couldn't find a political 'system' with both hands, a map, and a tour guide.
Thanks for the time you put into your answer and actually watching the video. He is a rapper and is also a very successful stock broker. I'm not so sure about his situation being apples to moon however. NWA was held in high esteem for their style of music. Jackson went into another universe in the late 80's with his, so much so that he was dropped while NWA was exploited for money. He had huge brass ones for the songs he put out in that time. He was cut by his employer for expressing himself.
If you wouldn't mind, here is one of his earlier songs. It's worth a listen, especially around 2:50.
