Well, if it means snowflakes are logical thinkers with at least half a brain.......if you think what's happening in DC is good, you are truly lost.

This mentality is exactly why you will never be a serious shareholder in any company.

You run on feelings not facts.

The country may be 50/50 in voting but the number of people who are fanatic ideologues who won't buy a product because it doesn't align with their views is 1% of a 50% and you're irrelevant.

There's a reason they make a billion dollars a year and you have to check your checking account monthly to see if you can take that vacation.

I don't really care what these companies policies are, hell Nike was built with sweatshops.

If people go around protesting/boycotting everything they disagree with, pretty soon they will have nothing to eat/wear/drive.

Kind of odd. Didn't UA's CEO praise Trump as being good for business a week or two ago? I guess this is to counter the flack he took for that.

Exactly. The people on here hollering about they will never buy under amour again are truly fricking pathetic. Ok I am sure they will miss the $15 you spent last year on the one shirt you bought on sale at Academy. Obviously the people who has an impact on the revenue stream is the base that is against the travel ban. Hence Under Amour comes out against the ban. You think they are emotionally invested in the fricking travel ban? They only care about profits.
