Pretty much sums up most of the statements the Left makes.
Conservatives are still spending time and treasure debating it but the left marches on leaving legions of dead babies in its wake.
Id like to see a timeline of this controversy. It doesnt pass the smell test.
How many shoes were actually produced? When did the mediocre ex-QB find out about the shoes? Does he have final vote for any and all Nike products? Does Nike have any other celebrity spokespeople? Do they each have a say-so?
Huge publicity stunt?
Of course that is what they set out to do as instructed by their 'teachers' the left wingers of the '60's that we should have euthanized at that time.
There is no need to keep explaining history to these people as they will only deny it. There is no chattel slavery in this country. My ancestors fought to end it. Shut up already. Maybe we should start destroying statues and monuments like the left does and then insist there never was slavery in this country and dare anyone to prove otherwise.
Kaepernick knows full well what he believes in, and what he supports. That is, cop killing and communist revolution.
"Huey Percy Newton (February 17, 1942 August 22, 1989) was an African-American political activist and revolutionary who, along with Bobby Seale, co-founded the Black Panther Party in 1966. He continued to pursue an education, eventually earning a Ph.D. in social philosophy.[1][2] In 1989 he was shot and killed in Oakland, California. ..."
"As a student at Merritt College in Oakland, Newton became involved in politics in the Bay Area. He joined the Afro-American Association (AAA), became a prominent member of Phi Beta Sigma fraternity, Beta Tau chapter; and played a role in getting the first African-American history course adopted as part of the college's curriculum.
He read the works of Karl Marx, Vladimir Lenin, Frantz Fanon, Malcolm X, Mao Zedong, Émile Durkheim, and Che Guevara.
During his time at Merritt College, he met Bobby Seale, and the two organized the Black Panther Party for Self Defense in October 1966.[3]"

From the article: REVOLUTIONARY HEROES
"On May 1st, May Day [1969], the day of the gigantic Free Huey [Newton] rally, two of Alioto's top executioners vamped on the brothers from the Brown Community who were attending to their own affairs. These brothers, who are endowed with the revolutionary spirit of the Black Panther Party defended themselves from the racist pig gestapo [the police].
Pig Joseph Brodnik received his just reward with a big hole in the chest. Pig Paul McGoran got his in the mouth which was not quite enough to off him.
The revolutionary brothers escaped the huge swarm of pigs with dogs, mace, tanks and helicopters, proving once again that "the spirit of the people is greater than the man's technology."
To these brothers the revolutionary people of racist America want to say, by your revolutionary deed you are heroes, and that you are always welcome to our camp."

Below are the names and photos of 35 Police Officers who were murdered by the Black Panthers and the subsequent Black Liberation Army in the 60s, 70s and 80s [click link for list and details].
The Black Liberation Army was an organization that grew out of the Black Panther Party, composed of former Black Panther Party members, operating from about 1971-1980. Another two police officers on the list were murdered by the Weather Underground, a domestic terrorist group with ties to the Black Liberation Army.
Despite this readily available information, today the internet was full of articles criticizing those who were upset by Beyonces Super Bowl Halftime performance, and questioning how anyone could be upset over a woman affirming her blackness. Their analysis couldnt have been more off.
We have no issues with someone affirming their blackness or any other identity they want to affirm. We do take issue when people pay homage to a group that used terrorism and violence to promote racism and revolutionary socialism a group that murdered dozens of police officers in cold blood.
As you scroll through the list of officers below, look at their photos and read their stories. Among these officers are black men and white men. Rookies and veterans from across the country. Most were killed in unprovoked attacks and ambushes. They all left behind families .
Perhaps Beyonce, someone from the NFL, and someone representing CBS, could read through this list and tell us if they still stand by their decision to honor the Black Panthers during the Super Bowl. Then perhaps they could explain their answers to the surviving wives and children of these fallen officers. ...

America: NOT perfect, simply the best.
Kids are graduating from high school and in many cases from college barely able or sometimes unable to read. They live on the web and get everything, school information and their news from videos. Before I retired about 1 of every 4 engineering hires were unable to write a complete sentence. I had to fire a guy who refused to write complete English sentences in emails to out Government sponsors. He refused to use anything but texting shortcuts. We lost programs so I fired his a$$.
That turned a few of the others around.
Donald Trump Jr. had a scathing critique of the athletic company Nike after it decided to pull a sneaker bearing a flag used during the American Revolution.
Instead of using that older version of the American flag, Trump Jr. suggested Nike should unveil a communist-style shoe looking similar to the hammer-and-sickle logo of the former Soviet Union.
"If the Betsy Ross Flag, the flag of the American Revolution, is too offensive for Nike to commemorate The 4th of July maybe Nike should go with this... seems to be more in line with their views," Trump Jr. tweeted on Wednesday.
His attack came as Nike faced mounting criticism over its decision to halt the release of a shoe that had the Betsy Ross flag because it could "unintentionally offend" people.

The problem is that Democrats are evil.
Does anyone think that Kaepernick is the sharpest knife in the drawer?
When is Nike changing their name? Nike was a Greek goddess, and the Greeks had tons of slaves. Why are they glorifying slavery with all of their publicity? It’s so insensitive and hurtful.
