I personally believe that everything has a place. Any person should be free to protest against what she or he considers to be a valid cause but sports stadium (at a time when a game is being conducted in it) is not something that I believe should be an avenue for political messages. He could do the same after the completion of every game outside the stadium. I believe sports should be kept away from politics. But then some people may not think like me and I don't have anything against them.

The point of any protest is to bring as much attention as possible to the reason behind the protest. Few in America have as large a platform as an NFL player, and even more so a QB. So he used his platform as he saw fit. Is it really any different than Al Gore talking about global warming, Bono preaching about everything at a U2 concert, or George Clooney talking about African orphans or whatever? You don't have to agree with what Kaepernick is trying to bring attention to (though everyone should), but if you don't like seeing it on tv then maybe that's when you should grab a beer or go to the bathroom.
