SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) — By now everyone knows about the San Francisco 49ers’ Colin Kaepernick’s decision to sit during the national anthem in protest of police brutality.
The decision has sparked strong reactions from both sides of the argument. And of course, when the people of the internet have opinions, they turn them into memes.
Most of the memes are heavily skewed against Kaepernick’s decision and some say the memes can be offensive.
Here are some of the memes that are going viral:
