Saddest thing is the powerless, helpless way people like us will be when we threaten to boycott some evil company.

Rush recently said about the Facebook,Twitter,Google, Silicon Valley bias against all conservative content: don’t regulate by big government, let the market place decide it. Also possible antitrust if 90% monopoly said Joe Pags on his radio show.

True, tell someone “search for me on Dogpile, my store is 128 lines down on page 59.” Sorry, out of business. “No Google because they banned me.”

But this is the Nike market place against us.

Received this today from a great friend. NFL -- " N O F LAG LEAGUE" The NFL Will Feel This On Veterans Day!

This is one that I can totally get behind, and I hope that you will as well. Let's show the NFL that "We, The People" are the ones in charge!

They perform for us, and we pay them very well for doing so. All we ask of them is that they practice their little skits all week long, and then on the day of their scheduled performance, they put on their little costumes and perform. If they insist on having a protest, they are welcome to rent the stadium and host a protest, but don't hold "We, The People" hostage to watch a protest when we only pay them to perform the skit they practiced. If they don't think "We, The People" pay them, watch what happens when we quit! Let's do this folks!

A National total boycott of the NFL is planned for Sunday, November 11th, Veterans Day Weekend.

Boycott all football telecasts. All fans, all ticket holders, are asked to stay away from attending or viewing any NFL games on Sunday,

November 11th; let the NFL play to empty stadiums. --- Pass this post along to all your friends and family.

Honor our military, some of whom came home with the American Flag draped over their coffin. Continue with the weekly boycott of televised games, but let's make this a day the owners, coaches, players, and advertisers will notice.

They have a right to protest if they want to, but during the National Anthem is NOT the time or venue! They show an utter lack of patriotism and total disrespect for our Veterans – living and dead – and everything for which they put their lives on the line! If you agree, please help this message go viral! Thank you very much!

The Nike Swoosh is now a symbol of black bigotry and hate.

More than 170,000 will NEVER buy a NIKE product ever again

I wonder how New Balance (the anti-Nikes) sales are doing?

To let folks know how this works, there are professional comic book writers out there who have >100,000 Twitter followers who regularly sell only 7,000 issues of a comic.

It’s easy to like and share media. It’s another thing to actually support.

170k Instagram followers are cheaper to buy than Facebook or Twitter followers. Wise choice.

Did exactly that on Friday. I figure it might go up a bit more but not much and then the long term downtrend will start

Nike will sell extra shoes this month. Next month, those America-hating buyers won’t want more shoes and decent people will still be boycotting that disgusting company.

When are people going to finally figure out that social media attacks are mostly bots and written by professional Black Propagandists. One can safely ignore these attacks. Only a small percentage are actually people and 99% of them are penniless keyboard warriors living in Dad’s basement.

Nike to me is and always was a mass market ghetto brand. And their designs have become more and more bizarre. I will stick to my ASICS.
