I don’t understand any of this and why so many people are making such a big deal about it.

Dicks ... Sales and revenue in the toilet and circling the bowl

Kapernick / Nike ... whoever the marketing person(s) that made that decision should be help up like a hero for exposing their true feelings. Now the sweatshops, abuse of workers, and working conditions can be exposed. Maybe do some investigating to see if Nike is actually having their sneakers made in North Korea and funneled thru the Chinese. Lots of great press to go around. Lets have all the liberals start paying $150 a pair to support Phil Knight, while simultaneously protesting the abuse, pay and working conditions of the workers.

Amazon ... no different, but every one loves the fact that they can never leave their homes and have things in the next day or two. Never thinking about how Bezos’ workers are treated like cattle. The very workers that Liberals/the Left/Unions say they love so much.

But, at the end of the day, it’s Kapernick’s right to do and say what he does. It’s Nike’s right to do and say what they do. It’s Levis’ right to do and say what they do.

But, it’s also the right of the SILENT MAJORITY, to acknowledge those rights, not say a damn thing, and just as quietly never purchase another item from any of them. Never watch another pro football game. Never buy another football jersey.

Just, NOD, our collective heads, carry on with our lives, and give any of them another cent. That is for more painful to them than any protests, marches, meme’s, letters, interviews, whatever.

I wonder how many hunters and gun owners wear Levis? I suspect a lot.

I am figuring that the thrift stores NATIONWIDE will be swamped with Nike gear.
