UN-Reno Sorry for Kaepernick Kostume

Share this article

It turns out that university administrators can feel apologetic. “The University of Nevada, Reno recently sent out a campus-wide message to apologize for an off-duty campus police officer who dressed up as Colin Kaepernick for Halloween,” Kassy Dillon reported in Campus Reform. “The costume featured a fake nose, a wig, a Kaepernick 49ers jersey, and a sign that read ‘will stand for food.'”

In doing so, this rent-a-cop proved he was wittier and more thoughtful than Kaepernick himself, the NFL, his bosses….That doesn’t mean he was witty and thoughtful. As our friends on the left tell us, it’s all relative.
