Kid Rock At Iowa Concert: 'You Know What? Fuck Colin Kaepernick'

During his performance at the Iowa State Fair on Sunday night, Michigan's own Kid Rock delivered a few political messages. He sold “Kid Rock for U.S. Senate” shirts at $25 apiece and ran a brief photo of President Trump during an in-song photo collage, Matthew Leimkuehler of the Detroit Free Press reports.

But his harshest message came during the the bridge of “Born Free,” when he decided to comment on the upcoming NFL season and quarterback Colin Kaepernick, the former San Francisco 49er quarterback who is currently a free agent.

At that moment, Kid Rock, aka Robert James Ritchie, delivered a short message for Kaepernick, who gained national attention in 2016 for not standing during the National Anthem prior to games to protest treatment of people of color.

“Football’s about ready to start,” Kid Rock said. “You know what? Fuck Colin Kaepernick.”

The Detroit Red Wings have scheduled this asshole for six shows at the new arena (including the opening).

1. Wonder what Kid Rock thinks of Jimi Hendrix

A lot of people were outraged at Jimi's rendition of the Star Spangled Banner at Woodstock.

[Warren DeMontague]

7. That's like asking what a turd thinks of the Taj Majal

[Floyd R. Turbo]

2. I'd pay good money to see him try! 😏

[musette_sf]

3. still find it hard to believe

that THIS was Ahmet's last discovery... he called Kid Rock "my young Elvis"....

[Johonny]

4. Being trashed by Kid Rock isn't even an insult is it?

Kid Rock, why is he still a thing?

[Initech]

5. If I had any Kid Rock albums they'd be purged from my collection.

Fuck him.

[pintobean]

6. Fuck Colin Kaepernick

14. Larry, Moe and Curly ...

[maveric]

33. Hey! Don't insult the Stooges like that.

They were great Americans.

[HughBeaumont]

15. American Dumbass.

Utterly ridiculous that these people refuse to see that kneeling for the flag is ALSO a right.

It'd be nice if Americans took their voting choices as seriously (and with as much fervor) as they did with people standing or not standing for a song.

[pintobean]

18. I'm pretty sure most people understand that.

Saying fuck him is a right, too.

[Snake Plissken]

16. The future of the GOP

[LexVegas]

17. Fuck Kid Rock. Fuck Colin Kaepernick. nt

[cwydro]

39. Yeah, I'm not really a fan of either.

Either.

[madinmaryland]

19. You know what? Fuck kid rock.

At least Kap is standing up for people less fortunate than he is.

[demmiblue]

21. Yep.

The righties (see above) just can't help putting him down.

Kudos to the Cleveland Browns, btw:

[pintobean]

22. Righties?

Since when is it a Democratic value to diss the American flag and our national anthem?

(see above)

[demmiblue]

23. Awww, bless your heart!

P.S. Thanks for kicking my thread!

[nini]

35. It's what sets this country apart

the freedom to do these protests even if one doesn't agree with it.


To question their right to do that is NOT a Democratic trait.

[pintobean]

36. Who is questioning his right?

Free speech doesn't mean there won't be consequences for controversial actions.

[phleshdef]

37. Its not a diss to the flag or the anthem. But the idolatry of flag worship is fucking pathetic.

There is a huge difference between patriotism and religious-like national fervor. I refuse to worship anything, including my country.

[wellst0nev0ter]

47. Maybe Putiin's Russia is more to your liking?

n/t

[billh58]

25. +100 n/t

[billh58]

24. +100 n/t

[Lint Head]

26. Fuck you right back Kid Coward.

[ismnotwasm]

28. You know what? Fuck Kid Rock

Sounds like His tongue got caught in a meat grinder--"Bawitdaba da bang a dang diggy diggy diggy said the boogy said up jump the boogy". Plus that cringy Sweet Home Alabama again bullshit.

Laziest songwriter ever.

[phleshdef]

32. I'd like to see him say it to Kaepernick's face.

There would be a mud puddle left behind that people use to call Kid Rock.

[BannonsLiver]

34. He'd never have the sack to say that to Kap's face.

[Dawson Leery]

38. Kid Rock (A.K.A Robert Richie): A Standard Issue Republican.

This is the Republican Party.

Rocky has the same quality and durability as a Chrysler tinbox.

[cwydro]

40. I'll bet he's not even registered to vote.

Just a typical moron.

[Docreed2003]

41. Kid Rock...the "voice of the common man"....

Just look at the rough home he grew up in...

[Dawson Leery]

43. The little Trump Clone S**tbag used to brag about

how he buy anything he wanted.

Now he sells himself as someone who never took a hand out/hand up.

As I said, he is a standard issue Repub.

[Docreed2003]

44. Exactly!!

[DonCoquixote]

42. hey Kid

are you still bitter that Marshall Mathers (aka Eminem) was able to get the career you wish you had?

[GaryCnf]

46. For me at least

Support for Kaepernick is not about free speech. It's about supporting his courage to speak the truth.

Young black men are being murdered by design by law enforcement and way too many people, many of whom we claim as friends, are scared to say it or don't believe it.

[ImpeachTheGOP]

48. Openly playing to the racists is standard Republican fare now.

Just think, this idiot will probably be in the fucking Senate. This country is lost.
