By now, everyone should know about Mr Kaepernick taking a knee during the national anthem. All the outrage that had been directed against him, the sponsors lost, the angry letters, the other people refusing to stand and taking a knee as well.
He won.
For every angry tweet, or article written and posted, for every expression of outrage f "How dare he not stand!!" He has won the debate.
And nothing anyone, anywhere can do to make it otherwise.
In his head, every scream of outrage against him has just proven to himself and his defenders, that he is "Right".
It doesn't matter that the truth has been obfuscated, folded spindled, and/or mutilated.
He "Won".
Everyone is talking about HIM, and the message HE wants to be discussed. He has taking the Black Lives Matter program and thrown it into the lives of each and every person in the US.
It's like the old question, "Have you stopped Beating Your Wife?"
There is no way to answer that question without looking the fool.
And America, we have walked straight into it.

I'm sitting here watching the Star Wars Documentary
when my TV suddenly turns on and the National anthem is being sung.
I almost knocked over my computer jumping up.
Old habits such as coming to attention for the Anthem, Raising the Flag and Taps are habits I DON'T want to lose.
Now it's time to pause the documentary.
NASCAR Sprint Cup racing is on at Texas Speedway.
