Typical feel good over-simplistic brain dead Liberal mantra.

The important thing is to sacrifice for your belief, what ever it is right or wrong. Don’t exercise your mind about facts, don’t try and fix the problem just kneel and hate the police.

Sacrificing everything, like using cheap Chinese labor to make billions?

Using his social injustice cause to make millions (I’m guessing).
I haven’t found an article reporting what he’s being paid.

Another case of money talks. We found Colin's price.

Another scam for the black vote.

Here is the email that I sent to them:

AMERICA IS THE GREATEST COUNTRY ON EARTH. WE ARE BLESSED TO HAVE MANY CHOICES IN THE PRODUCTS THAT WE BUY BECAUSE MANY HAVE DIED TO GIVE US THOSE CHOICES. NIKE IS NEVER GOING TO BE ONE FOR ME IN THE FUTURE.

I will never own Nike stock again btw..I will definitely find a sport shoe that builds sports shoes, not political awareness. Goodbye.

Their email address:
Investor.Relations@nike.com

Our grandson spent the night at our house. This morning as he was eating breakfast I asked him if he would still buy Nike products. He said, sure, why not? I then filled him and he said, if i wouldn’t have told him about Nike, he wouldn’t have known anything about it. So there you have it.

This is a doubly dumb move by Nike if selling shoes is the primary goal. They have now offended a significant portion of their customers and potential customers. And, if the negative response causes them to back away from the Kaepernick marketing campaign, they’ll succeed in offending the customers who viewed it as a positive.

A likely lose/lose scenario.

Colin Kaepernick net worth listed as 16-20 million. I have no sympathy for this spoiled brat multimillionaire. Adopted by a white family who did everything for him.

What kind of idiots run Nike?

Guess they don’t care about the bottom line.

Sucks to be them.
