Racists expected Nike to lose money after Kaepernick ‘Just Do It’ campaign, but they were wrong

My hat goes off to NIKE for having the balls to give this guy a break. All he was doing was exercising his constitutional rights as an American, AND IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH HATING OR DISRESPECTING THE FLAG, THE NATIONAL ANTHEM OR AMERICA. IT WAS ABOUT POLICE BRUTALITY. Do these racist idiots think black people are so dumb that we would disrespect OUR OWN FLAG. We love our flag just as much as you do. These players have family members who have served in the military, I even have family who have served, in fact my brother died in the army, you really think I would be ok with them disrespecting my brothers memory? HELL NO! 

 

In fact, black people have been fighting in wars for this country for years. Can you imagine back in the 40's, getting your head blown off, losing limbs and eyes, all for a country that looked at you as only 3/4 of a man. Or come home from war as a hero, but yet you still have to sit on the back of the bus and can't drink out of the same water fountain as whites. That's why you should NEVER underestimate the Patriotism of a black man in this country.

 

You racist idiots have to ask yourselves, are you really THAT patriotic? Or is it because you just hate to see black people protest. Do any of you stand for the National Anthem when you are watching a game on tv? I think not. Have you ever asked a football player or a black person what it means to take a knee? Of course not. You just listen to Trump, and believe ANYTHING he says. Trump wouldn't know what's on the minds of black people, he only has one black friend and that's Kanya West, and even that's on shaky ground. I am a black man who has protested before and meet other black protesters, wouldn't you think that I would know whats on the mind of black protesters more then you or Trump? But no, you don't want to listen to people who know better, you just want to stay inside your racist hate filled bubble and never even consider an alternative, because you WANT to hate blacks, that is your goal and that is your sad purpose in life.

 

I didn't mean to get off on a rant, but I am sick and tired of people hating on the football players about this, we do have something called free speech in this country, hell I don't like Klan Rallies, I think having a rally to show how much you hate other people is about the stupidest thing in the world, but at the same time it is still freedom of speech and well within their constitutional rights.

When the world starts removing colour adjectives when describing people, then the world will finally have a chance of equality.Rise above using a colour tag dude !
