    One of the facts of life, is that Nike isn't worried about angry white Trumpsters not buying their shoes...
    Capisce?

    Yea, sweat shops. Seems like a lot of you folks couldn’t give less of a **** about those factory workers in those conditions, but one black guy as an advertiser and now suddenly you’ve got morals.

    Will they now have to wear pig-cops on their socks?

    Nobody is forcing those Chinese workers to take those jobs that Nike is offering (well, except for the vile Chinese gov't, I don't know.) Are YOU offering them the same or better deal? If not, then it's a GOOD thing that Nike offers them those jobs, so that they can feed their family. Communism is the REAL underlying problem, arguably.

    If Nike wants to play SJW using cop hating Kaepernick and draw attention to their brand, they are going to be looked at. Fact off life.

    There are other NFL players that Nike could have used.

    Pat Tillman was certainly another.

    Suddenly Republicans are whining about sweatshops in Asia?
    Bwa ha ha ha! What else are these people capable of? Republicans, I mean.
    They are true locksteppers....

    They’re being looked at now, and not any other time when questionable things popped up previously. A lot of you claim to care about worker rights, freedom and all that but are silent on it. Kap gets an ad placement and suddenly you have something to say.

    Now if only you used less cliched bullshit memes here. As I’ve said many times, there is no one way to be patriotic or heroic.

    Ask all the charities and human organizations he’s supported and donated to that same question.

    Cliched bullshit memes. Those Nfl players were heroes and it woild have been much less divisive to use all three players in adds. Go to hell.

    No one said they weren’t, but lots of you think people in the military are go-to heroes, but they’re not the only kind of hero out there. And plus “hero” is subjective to an individual.

    Like I said, Nike should be using various people in this add campaogn, not just the SJW, Che Guevera loving, cop-hater. RW and military members by shoes too. It's just a stupid marketing decision. Admit it.

    Nike's giant-brained SJWs must have attributed the NFL's declining popularity and revenue
    to _________________.

    this is what happens when you're more interested in filling your boardrooms with people who look different but think exactly alike.
