Seattle Quarterback Russell Wilson Destroys Colin Kaepernick... He Is A True Patriot For years now, quarterback Russell Wilson has stood out as a great athlete and a man of God. The Seahawks player has made a name for himself both on and off the field. Not only has he seen Super Bowl victories, but he spends his free time visiting children in hospitals, volunteering at football camps, and setting a good example for others. He also gained attention for practicing sexual abstinence before marrying singer Ciara. Recently, Wilson was asked about Colin Kaepernick sit-in during the National Anthem in protest of the oppression of minorities in this country. This is how he responded: For me, I love the flag. I love the National Anthem because its an emotional time for me because Im so grateful I get to play on the football field. And every time I get to put my hand on my heart, its truly an honor you know, the military, for me I think about my family members who have served, and friends I train down in San Diego all the time, so Im around the Navy and I see those guys around. And all they do for our country and the people in Afghanistan and all these people fighting. 9/11, for example, coming up thats going to be our first game and I think about all the pain from that. So thats why I stand and put my hand on my heart. I do think theres always issues in our country. I think ultimately it comes back to love. Like I said to you guys before, it comes back to loving one another and appreciating one another. Understanding that were not perfect but we need to be equal. And thats from the black community, from the white community, thats from police officers to everybody to all of our military to everybody that we get to recognize and see have great appreciation for what this country is based on and what it should be based on. It should be based on equality. It should be based on people having freedom of speech people can have that decision. And so, I understand what (Kaepernicks) doing. But at the same time for me, I can also think about where we need to go and where our thoughts need to be. It needs to be about love, about caring about one another. And thats for every community, every situation, every socio-economic status. What do you think of Wilsons comments?
