He need a legal hair cut

Keep up the good fight !!

Why doesn't he help the oppressed children and women that make NIKE products that help pay his salary

Democrats stunts

👏🙌 our freedom maestro!

I saw a video of a NIke store in California being looted today. 🤷🏻‍♀️

COMPLETE LOSER !!!!

We love ❤️ you CK

Screw them and Colin Kapernick

Thanks!

If I run down the street with a Molotov cocktail shouting, “Justice for George Floyd!”, can I get some of this idiot’s money?

You are a amazing man Colin

I swear I’ve heard all those people were white supremacists.

This a non USA citizen, disregards to our flag!

If it doesn't it sure designates him as the biggest jack ass representative for nike. Boycott nike. We can also protest peacefully.

We can never never never Ever Elect another 'DEMOCRAT' Anywhere for Anything...

He'll get sued for funding crimes. Can't wait to see it. nike

What an amazing life he's living. Purpose. Justice. Dignity. This is Godly. ColinKaepernick Kaepernick7

THIS COUNTRY WAS BUILT ON THE BACKS OF IMMIGRANTS. AND THERE SHOULD BE NO SEPERATION. THANKS TO BLACK,WHITES,HISPANICS,AFRICANS AND ALL NATIONALITIES THAT HAVE RAISED UP AGAINST RACIST. IF WE DIE LET IT BE FOR THE GOOD CAUSE. TRUTH AND UNBIAS JUSTICE.

RAINBOWBLAK I hear yall reporters getting shot by cops

Instead of paying for college tuition for the members of his community, he is bringing the criminals back.

Once again who is he ?

Much of this stems form Obama starting with the Trayvon Martin affair and making it seem as if black men were specifically targeted

That was another crock and farce. He was kneeling against injustice yet most football players are minority. He should have encouraged minorities to aim instead of blaming others for their inadequacies

Thats why they ‘protested’ your building

Protesters were not arrested. Rioters/vandals/criminals were. Soooooo theres that.

Why would protesters need legal help? Oh you're talking about rioters.

What about those who lost their jobs and means to provide for their families because of the people looting their stores and burning their businesses? What about helping those actually pushing for justice for George Floyd? Kaepernick7 what help to them?

I’m sure don lemon will too!

He was going to get cut from SF.

Unpatriotic washed up has been supporting rioters violence gangs criminals and terrorists with the backing of NIKE always knew what his true agenda was

But I keep getting told this is the work of white supremacists and far right people. What is Kaepernick bailing them out?

Get a haircut.

I think Colin will end up more famous now than when he was a QB. it all may sink in to the minds of the average normal american . the NFL owes you a big apology

CK is 💩 and you aren’t any better for advocating his anti-American cause. Trash news as usual.

There has never been anyone in the history of the NFL that has gone so far without doing anything. Grats Kap!

The only ones that may need legal funds will be Criminals, not protestors.

Oh lawd always wanting the spotlight!

Couldn’t throw a football so now he tosses Soros nuts around

Totally Agree! Spend money to get people released to make sure every building burns! The arrested are most likely not the protesters. My bet - others are using the protests as cover to destroy the community where the protesters are from. Further Oppression.

Protesting is legal. It's freedom of speech, no lawyer needed. Rioting on the other hand is ILLEGAL. But I don't expect Kaepernick7 to know the difference. Didn't read the article, it's after all.

If only you had listened to him back then. But no...

👊🏾 Thank you!

tedcruz are you going to weigh in on this or just keep spewing on about The Biden team also trying to help as you so eloquently put; “white supremacists.”

LoriJulia 8pm is 8pm. Easy.

Stop depending on One source of income due to the pandemic I need 10 people that want to be financially free by making money from home in just 48 hours ask me how

I like Kaepernick7! If he had as much enthusiasm for playing professional NFL football as he do for protesting, I think he could make a comeback!

'Fake News' states White Supremacy Professional Agitators incited these riots?! What I'm watching are hoodlums!!!

The only people in Minneapolis needing legal support are AntifaTerrorists so now you are saying that dear Kaep is financing them.

Exactly!!! Enough said...

So Kaep openly supports rioters and looters. Got it.

Seriously?

I love watching all these thugs riot and burn down their liberal dark blue cities. I'm sitting back and enjoying this.

Rioters.

CNN Don Lemon, just said 'Los Angeles is ON FIRE?'and it was 1 shop!can it be more apparent, CNN wants chaos. It and all of their so called News anchors got together in their little bunker decided to INCITE Fear-HATE-RACE-Violence. This is their & the DNC's GOAL, do not be fooled

Love it 😍

That man is real trash if I’ve ever seen one he makes you sick to your stomach every time you see him

He's provoking violence by doing this. Shameful

Unfortunately, those resources will be used by criminals, not protestors.

This guy again?

Protesting yes, rioting & looting no.

Colin, use your voice to support the Americans that needs you, No more RACISM!!!

Pacific protesters don’t need legal support, looks like he is supporting violence😡😡😡

Support protesters, not rioters.

Ridiculous n sick CNN supports this nonsense. The fake distructive protestors are already getting that extra unemployment money, soros money and now kapernick money. They will never go to a real job n work hard n have an honest living.

Wonder where this unemployed quarterback gets his money? Maybe Sorros! Where’s the FBI & media investigators. Maybe pull a few hundred off Trump & investigate!

Why doesn’t he start a fund to help the poor citizens that lost property during this supposed protest. I’m losing my patience with this supposed protest. Stop now and help figure a way to stop racism!!!

Watch out for all the arrested white supremacists.

Why would he do that if they are white supremacist and russian agitators ? 😉

My wife raped me last night. Can I apply?

Thought he was broke

He’s the MLK of our generation. We need him more speaking out.

Maybe he could help the lady named Stephanie in Minneapolis who lost all of the little she had. It will go viral I'm sure so you will know who she is.

I was told the one’s causing trouble were white supremacists

CNN promoting hate and violence as usual 🙄

Every single person who was arrested is from out of state. He’s not helping us Minnesotans, he’s helping invaders, terrorists.

Why can't those who looted who have 'legal issues' just sell all of the shit they've stolen?

Protesting isn't illegal, you don't need legal help if you're a protester... Call them what they are. Criminals.

So now he’s supporting rioters? Oops can’t say riot on

Besides being a mediocre QB, he wonders why he can't get any work.

Colin Kaepernick has started a Legal Defense Initiative to support white supremacists who flooded Minnesota to burn down minority property

Will help the white “protesters”

Call 1-800-EAT-SHIT lawyers are waiting

Y'all stream Haba now. Pure vibes

Protesters or looters ?

clown wont raise a dime and if he does he will spend it ...on him

😂

literally to hell with liberals! Now they are going to riot like never before because they will get help to do so! What the hell is happening!

So he's a white supremacist or a Russian now too?!

STOP CALLING THEM PROTESTERS!!! THOSE BEING ARRESTED ARE CRIMINALS!! They are burning down homes and businesses of the black citizens they claim to be fighting for, and most of these criminals are far-left white kids from out of state!

Weasel and traitor of the US

You asked for this. We will defend this country at all cost.

Can’t we kick this jerk out of the country

A legal fund for white supremacists? Am I right cnn? Lol clowns get your narrative straight.

I have the right to say kaps fro is simply rediculous

It's never been about race. There is but one race. The human race. They want you divided. Divided you are weak. United you are strong. Their biggest fear is you awake. You, united. Where We Go One We Go All

Colin Keapernick? Who the fuck is Colin Keapernick? Never heard of him.
