Nobody in their right mind thinks Kaep (or any significant population) is actually offended by any of this. It's all a dog and pony show.

I agree. I don't actually believe this story.

It's amazing how everything is muhh fake news until it's something for folks to get angry and be faux outraged about.

You obviously didn't read the article. It says it in the 2nd paragraph.

What happens if the KKK decides to take on the pride flag? Does that automatically change its meaning and therefore should be banned?


Let's find out. You and your crew can start carrying them and see what happens.

At some point you should get upset with letting these pussies walk all over you and your rights. Obviously, this is a lot bigger topic than just these shoes, I'm just sick of having everything censored to cave to these mentally inept cry baby pussies. If you're ok with letting these pussies always get their way, then you have no backbone
Ok so what should I be doing? Not buying Nike?

Isn't there already a Nike boycott from the Kaep contract in the first place? I think a double boycott is in order. See how they like that.

I wonder if Kaepernick and those who are offended care about the Chinese sweatshop workers who make Nike products?

Kaepernick isn’t some sky screaming social justice warrior ? 

The dude is a con artist who knew his career in the NFL was in trouble so he found a way to capitalize on an anti-cop movement and eventually race baiting as a whole. 

He’s Al Sharpton 2.0


Dude, there's no way he's that smart
