    Like Colin? God Bless America and free enterprise! A country where the bastard mixed race child of a single mother can be given up for adoption and raised by an adoring, supportive middle class white family and go on to make tens of millions of dollars playing the race card.

    Primarily I'm concerned with American labor, concomitant to that is the concern that other laborers are being treated brutally.

    Odd you don't care about either.

    It would be good for Ameria though maybe not so good for Nike and the uninformed black nfl players taking a knee

    I'm still waiting for someone to ask Nike why they chose a Che Guevara supporter as the face of their company.

    If I had to bet, I'd bet nobody ever asks.

    Two words, stock price!
    Nike is paying the price for siding with lunatics.

    You said I don't care about either. The truth is I've never bought a pair of Nike sneakers.

    BLM has built an entire business out of it.

    So has the global warming people.

    What a country when you can become a prominent figure just by a display of your faux struggles publicly. He was raised by a kind hearted white family and currently makes millions.

    Nike is going to be just fine. If it rebounds I'm sure you'll come back and admit Nike did the right thing.

    This must've sounded smarter in your head than it did in reality.

    You mean do I personally want to break the knees of knealing players?

    No, nor could I if I tried

    But if anyone leaves the field on a cart I hope its the ungrateful players taking a knee

    A trade war isn't necessarily good for America.

    Why you join, and what you agreed to when you signed don't have to be the same.
    But you agreed to protect the constitution. Which means you agreed to protecting free speech. It's not rocket science. And other things per the constitution.

    Yep. Discussing Tillman joining military so he could protect Kaeperniks right to free speech.

    Some RWers, who say they joined the military even, are having a hard time understanding what the military fights for.

    LOL. Nobody signs a document when they join the military? No one is dumb enough to believe that.
    I was in the military. I know what I signed. Else I got no benefits from joining. LOL.
