Real World Suggestion For Mr. Kapernick

Let's start with Chicago where in 2015 Black on Black violence resulted in 415 deaths while NATIONALLY police killings of blacks were 396. (Chicago Tribune). Now I realize police killings are not the only inequity Mr. K is kneeling about but I am certain it is a big part and could be a start to improving racial equity.

This weekend after your game please cruise on over to the South Side of Chicago and save some young black lives. Get out of a vehicle get out and walk about the humans who live this. Use your celebrity to make an impact. Put yourself in harms way like thousands of our military, police and firefighters do each and every day and convince these citizens not to destroy each other. The tens of thousands of South Chicagoans show this bravery every day in just living their lives.

The media has done you a favor and positioned what your doing as brave by "starting the conversation". Bottom line the media and the President gave you a pass, what you have done is easy in comparison to what others are doing. You want to see bravery go find a real man like Daniel Rodriguez who put his own life at risk to save fellow Americans from hundreds of fanatical jihadists.

If you had an ounce of integrity or character you would put your body where your mouth is and use your fame to make a change.
