Whats wrong? Kaep got your tongue? Francis Maxwell (TYT Sports) talks about how the silence from Colin Kaepernick's celebrity critics on police shootings speaks volumes.

These are just some of the well known sports/entertainment/political figures who opted to use their platform to exercise their first amendment right to discuss — or in most cases disparage — Colin Kaepernick’s protest. Yet now they have opted to use the do not disturb card when the nation needs more voices than ever. Since Colin Kaepernick’s protest at least 15 black people have died during encounters with the police, a number that is rising everyday. On Monday, the cause for Kaepernick’s protest was back in the news again after police in Tulsa, Oklahoma, released multiple videos that showed the fatal shooting of Terence Crutcher, only to be continued into Tuesday with the shooting of Keith Lamont Scott. Every day, another statistic is added, another family ruined, and another unnecessarily tragic victim trending ― trending everywhere but the timelines of Kaepernick’s most notable critics. You see, I don’t think everyone should feel obliged to speak up. You have every right to choose wether to exercise your first amendment right or not. But if you DO opt to speak out, when a man decides to exercise his first amendment right to protest the treatment of black Americans in this country, you have influenced American minds, you are now part of the conversation. So why are these same significant figures silent when two more unarmed black men are shot and killed? Why are they suddenly speechless?
