I think very little of Colin Kaepernick as a athlete and as a American, but that is just my opinion and as such does not count for squat. But out of all fairness, it is Kaepernick's constitutional right to do what he does no matter what others may think. As much as I may dislike him personally, if he thinks subpoenaing President Trump will gain him anything, I support his right to do so.
Good to see you Ed! Still holding down the southern border?
I have to say, my disrespect for Kaepernick is more on a personal level as well .. presenting himself as a role model, and an example to young black Americans to stand up for themselves and protest that which they see as unjust ………………….. he never even voted .. I about fell over! How did he propose to exact the change he was seeking, if voting was not part of the plan? What message does that send to those young black athletes emulating Kaepernick on their high school ball fields?
I wish him all the best in his quest against the NFL .. perhaps subpoenaing the president will get a team to sign him?
That's by his own admission. He's stated in interviews that he has not registered to vote (from Nov 2016) and that he did not vote in the 2016 presidential election saying at the time that it didn't matter to him who won. So a simple google search would have answered your question.

I think her point is that you are taking 1 example (he did not vote in 2016) and applying it to his entire voting life ("he never even voted").
Well there were two examples. In the first one, he stated after the 2016 elections that he had not ever registered. Not living where he does I don't know if there have been any local elections that he could have voted in nor do I know if he has since then registered for the 2018 elections as he hasn't stated that where I have been able to find.
Kaepernick, who was raised in Turlock, turned 18 in 2005, but he has not registered to vote in California at any point in the last decade, according to records maintained by the California Secretary of State. He also did not register in Nevada while he attended the University of Nevada, Reno, from 2006 to 2010, according to the Washoe County Registrar of Voters.
And protesting the disproportionate killing of black folks by mostly white police officers?
This stands to reason as they commit a disproportionate amount of the crime where cops might get involved. If he really wanted to make a difference perhaps he should protest the cause of over 90% of all black killings. And that would be by other blacks not cops.
Yes you surrendered ..... unless of course you prove your point. in which case i will surrender.
I'm not worried about that in the least though because all you got in spin, no facts, no data that proves the whirling dervish of a point you are trying to make.

sorry. I didn't mean it as that and that was not my intent. I guess it could be read that way, I was just putting down where I got my information.
That is my favorite picture of him
Your a packers fun huh !
I'm FINE with misspells. Not so much with lack of "some" knowledge.
Is it ?
No tellin' !
Post your meme at a little smaller size and won't look so rastered.
I kinda did that on purpose. "Fuzzy" fits the NFL players protest.
What 1st amendment right?
He is a employee. If his employer requires him to stand or be fired his ass better stand.
Now if he wants to take a knee on his own time then more power to him.
What KDMichigan said.

Bullshit, try spinning your BS numbers to someone who doesn't know better. Its a fact
The reasons for that fact can be debated but the fact that it is true can not. It is absolutely true.
Untrue. The majority of crime: blacks murder blacks; whites murder whites.
Please show us all those facts and figures and charts. Thanks!
Off topic/no value {SP}
Lol nice try, you made the statement with no citation, i called you on it. Your burden of proof.
I await documentation of your claim but i won't hold my breath because i know you got nothing. Not without spinning the hell out of it anyway.
One hint though. Before you respond i suggest you look up the definition of "disproportionate" before you really make a fool out of yourself.
But of course you don't ..... surrender is accepted unconditionally though .....
Deleted, skirting {SP}
Yes you surrendered ..... unless of course you prove your point. in which case i will surrender.

Oh, reverting to the old Pee Wee Herman " i know you are but what am i" gambit?
Classic!
