Former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick compared police officers to fugitive slave patrolmen after a Minnesota officer was acquitted in the shooting death of a black motorist. In a tweet, Kaepernick said “You can’t ignore your history – always remember who they are.” The Philando Castile trial went on for two weeks. At the end, twelve jurors deliberated for about 29 hours over the course of five days. Kaepernick, unable to accept the trial’s outcome, is still without an NFL job and has not been invited to any training camps.
