    There are several players with active collusion cases against the NFL. These claims take a very long time to litigate and their outcomes may not be forthcoming for years. Kaep's case is but one. We'll see what happens next.

    Can't you even keep up with your own posts?

    You replied to a post about a solider making the ultimate sacrifice with "Yeah, that would make a great ad. Wear Nike and die."

    and I replied with "another liberal making fun of real sacrifice."

    Which you did.

    to which you responded with that I dont know anything. I asked you to clarify and you still haven't.

    Are you caught up now with your own words or do I need to post them again?

    I'm sure you aren't a fake patriot from the alt. wacky far right fringe who has nothing better to do with his life but scream about the flag along with all his snowflake friends.

    Paul Newman started an organization that employs people, has 300 products and donated $500 million to charity. This is someone who truly cared about helping society.

    Kaepernick kneels for flag and he is treated like some sort of "hero" of civil rights.

    So, in other words, you have no idea whatsoever how corporations are run. Got it.

    Corporations are not citizens and I do not know of any law that considers a corporation a "citizen".

    However, corporations are groups of citizens, and a group of citizens still have rights such as free speech, freedom of association, and property rights.

    They are arbitrated, not litigated. Much shorter time frame.

    Just out of curiosity, don't you ever get tired of showing you really don't know what you are talking about?

    So you can't answer the question about your own statement. What a shocker.

    I've already posted it twice. If you want to pretend it doesn't exist that's for everyone to see.

    If you did then you would be able to explain the one I quoted. Twice. But you haven't.

    Personal attack noted.

    As for disposition of the cases, they can readily go to court if not concluded to the satisfaction of the parties involved.

    I'm quoting to see how much righteous bullshit I read from people who are vexed at Nike for using Kapernick but didn't ever address this at all. If this never phased you but a black guy who protested does then your priorities (and morality) are all the way fcked up.

    First, you got the last part backwards. Second, even if you straighten out the saying, it is not true. In some cases dissent can be patriotic, but if you are honest you can think of many many examples where dissent was just the opposite. For example, was it patriotic for Southerners to dissent against the election of Abraham Lincoln? Is it patriotic for antifa to smash store front windows and beat people with bicycle locks? Was it patriotic for Tim McVey to bomb the Murrow Building? Is it patriotic for White supremacists to protest equal rights?

    Dissent in those cases, yeah, not patriotism but just out of terrorism and wanting to be a dick. What Kap did, however, was peaceful so in that case it counts.
