-Short Attention Span Theater-
Colin Kaepernick calls for release of Mumia Abu-Jamal, former Black Panther convicted of killing police officer
2020-11-19
[CBSNEWS] Activist and has been free agent NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick
...Formerly a petulant quarterback for the San Francisco Giants, now looking for a job. He was willing to stand up for his princles by kneeling during the national anthem, which he had every right to do, but not willing to take the consequences, which he apparently thought shouldn't apply to him...
 called for the release of Mumia Abu-Jamal, a former Black Panther who was convicted of killing a White Philadelphia police officer in 1981. He made the comments during a virtual conference with supporters fighting for his release on Monday.

"We're in the midst of a movement that says 'Black Lives Matter.' And if that's truly the case, then it means that Mumia's life and legacy must matter," Kaepernick said in a video statement. "And the causes that he sacrificed his life and freedom for must matter as well."

#10  tl;dr: It is a brutal injustice to lock up a black man simply because he killed a police officer in cold blood, especially one that can read and write.

#8  We should set up a system in which in the last decade or so of someones term (when parole release is a real consideration) a person like Colin could serve one year of of a person's sentence for him. Make it a 20 person minimum (gotta have backups) must sign up to take the time before any count. Popular fellow like Mumia could easily find 20 folks willing to do a year each. Call it the "Money where your Mouth is" program.

#4  A very confused mongrel, latching onto extreme causes in an attempt to formulate his personal tribal identity and gain publicity. Pay him no mind.
