Former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick is speaking out about the killing of George Floyd, who died on Monday after a Minneapolis police officer kneeled on his neck for seven minutes while arresting him. The incident was caught on video and has sparked several days of protests and riots in Minneapolis as well as nationwide outrage.
Numerous athletes have shared their feelings about Floyd’s death, and now Kaepernick has weighed in.
“When civility leads to death, revolting is the only logical reaction.
The cries for peace will rain down, and when they do, they will land on deaf ears because your violence has brought this resistance.
