Not enough. This blue vs black vs white crap is nonsense.

What about All Lives Matter?

So was the employee who made the outlines fired? Were the higher ups who approved the outlines fired? If not, they are not serious about the situation.

I hope that miscreant employee is effing FIRED then. He cost the company all kinds of money and reputation.

“...What he chould have done:
1. Name and shame - or immediately terminate everyone responsible with the incident.
2. Say that this was done in error, that corporate policy is NO political or messaging attire anywhere. No Blue Lives Matter gear, but no Black Looters Marching gear either. No positional clothing of any kind should be allowed in a fair workplace.
3. Donate a bunch of corporate money to charities that help families of fallen officers *and* non-BLM-type foundations that press for professional and fair police conduct.....”

EXACTLY, IF he was actually serious about it.
Like I said, it is a weak BS attempt to save face. Ain’t gonna work....not in this day & age climate.

Corporate America is led by NWO/Globalists.

The leadership of each company has been bought.

Shareholders should start ditching companies like this asap.

See post 26 - the poster is correct, ‘field’ HR reps don’t wipe their arse without guidance and permission from corporate HQ. Note that Goodyear has not stated that the material was created without the knowledge or approval of any person at HQ.

Would also note that it’s possible that Goodyear’s philanthropic arm has donated to BLM as well, under their communities initiatives.

No idea, but the Twitter post/letter does not indicate that anything at all has happened to this hypothetical plant employee. Or anyone else.

At any fair/intelligent company, the policy for apparel should be “no lives matter” - i.e., NO promotion of any agenda or political point of view.

Need new tires but will not buy Goodyear. Anything that supports fricken BLM gets no support from my wife and I.

Amazing Goodyear acted so quickly

Now they have to fire their HR department.

Also, did you listen to the audio recording from this same presentation? Sounds an awful lot like dude wouldn’t be presenting this quite so positively without corporate HR backing.

It is, but leftists/Dems don’t think it is.

Here we go again... Most of these CEOs lack self and corporate awareness. They should keep quiet and just stick to running the business.

WINNING!

Is there some reason the Socialist Democrats and their entourage of low-life LOSERS cannot figure out that the more they force their ‘retarded’ views on the rest of us, the more we are now going to PUSH BACK?

FREE SPEECH IS FOR EVERYONE! All. Opinions. Matter. NOT just those of Socialist Democrats!

President Trump has done SO MUCH for Conservatives after DECADES of UniParty stupidity.

God Bless This Man!

They have “clarified” their position. Not changed it because they got grief for it.
What a bunch of pathetic leftist losers.

Screw you, Goodyear. I hope every Trump voter in America joins together and starves you of any profit you might hope to make until you go out of business.

I’ve never bought Goodyear tires and I certainly won’t start now. Their “acceptable” and “not acceptable” lists are an incredible affront to our right to free speech and an attempt to lend support to 2 extremely repugnant groups and their viewpoints. I hope Trump is not best pals with Goodyear after their paltry and thin attempt to undo the damage they did to themselves by their blatant prejudiced edicts.
