Would it be so bad to say why they actually closed the store? Too much theft. Why lie? I would put it on billboards all over town.

Portland is not very diverse, only 5.7% black.

I checked out the world IQ map, and there are no surprises. It explains a lot. It raises the question, “Why do low-IQ non-achievers blame their failures on the high achievers, and expect to get paid reparations for them?”

The most beautiful street in Cleveland. Maybe in the country was changed to MLK. Cleveland’s cultural gardens.

What would Colin Kaepernick do, other than calling Nike “racist!!” for closing that store?

Yes, in Canton GA MLK is in a nice commercial area. I did a double take the first time I saw it.

That's the thing about wealthy left-wingers: they'll push and pay for the loosening of criminal laws, inflicting harm on the poor who have no defense against criminals, and then the wealthy left-wingers will get up and leave, spewing some useless BS about how they will keep trying to "enrich the lives" of the people they've ruined.

Where are you going, Nike? Stay and enjoy what you've worked to create.

Just one step ahead, in my looted Nike Air Jordans.

Chris Rock had a bit where he asked something to the effect of ‘MLK symbolizes peaceful protest, action without violence. So why do they name the worst street in every city MLK Boulevard? If a friend calls an tells you I need directions, I’m on MLK boulevard just say “RUN!!”

You ignore the failure of the urban public school system nationwide, the easy (and mostly legal) availability of the mind numbing drug marijuana and the excuse of “systemic racism” as reasons for this anomaly. Look at a kindergarten class of black kids, they are happy, active, ready and willing to learn. Look at that same class in ninth grade.
