Communism doesn’t fly with those who have actually experienced it…
Via Miami Herald:
A hostile reception was expected.
And that’s exactly what the Miami crowd gave San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick when he ran onto the field for his first drive of Sunday’s game against the Dolphins at Hard Rock Stadium.
Even before the 49ers broke the huddle on the sideline, fans loudly booed Kaepernick, who during a conference call on Wednesday made comments praising Fidel Castro. The former Cuban president died two days later.
The exchange came after Miami Herald columnist Armando Salguero asked Kaepernick why he chose to wear a T-shirt during a post-game news conference at the beginning of the season depicting several photos including one of Castro meeting with Malcolm X. Among Kaepernick’s comments came praise for Cuba’s literacy rate during Castro’s regime.
Castro, who led a brutal dictatorship in Cuba for over five decades, died Friday at age 90.
Kaepernick denied at the goal line, with a thigh to the head from a player of Cuban descent. Fitting…
