Re: The Right Side Of History Reply #1 - 09/06/18 at 01:30:16 Dikks sporting goods isn't doing so well after they joined David Hogg. The NFL buys Nikes, but for how long? The nation is polarized. Taking a side simply pisses off about half of the potential customers. Whoever decided to do that better hope it works out a lot different than I think it's gonna.

The right side of history is paying a man who wore Pig/Cop socks?

I listened to him speak once and he's an idiot. He couldn't articulate his views with paper and crayons.

And just what exactly is his issue? That the black community, which kills each other with regularity, fathers that abandon children 70% of the time, a culture that celebrates violence, and on and on...somewhere near the bottom of that list is police brutality. And I'm supposed to go buy a tennis shoe because he skipped over all these self-induced, self-destructive behavior and focused on one that has the least effect on their community?

This just perpetuates the myth that cops shoot unarmed black men with regularity. The Hands Up, Don't Shoot lie. Sorry, but the black community has themselves to blame, they have race hustling Democrats to blame. They are self destructing before our eyes and Nike will only help to keep that destruction moving along while they sell a few shoes.

Right side of your history maybe, not mine.

Conspiracy?? Are you serious???

No jog, it's a protest about the disproportional amount of police killings of African Americans.

That's it.

Maybe you should read what I'm replying to.

I'm well aware of what the idiot has claimed.
Fine with me that they protest. They are Wrong about it and the numbers show that, but it is fine to protest.
I've said it before.
If kneeling is a political statement
So is standing.
Nobody should ever be forced to perform an action against their conscience.

Abomination? LOL To you maybe, not to everyone.

As to the distraction? Yeah, our own president and his supporters are making it an issue to distract from the utter failure he is.

There's your conspiracy.

Go back to the uproar for weeks before Trump said something. Yeah, trump is talking about it, every day, over and over.. You're delusional. Look at the empty seats. Your grasp of the religious beliefs of others HAS NO BEARING ON THEIR RIGHTS.

He commented immediately on it. There was no "before". The man watches fox news like a nielsen family and tweets during "his shows".

Then sure enough, his followers got in line and joined him in unison...

You're delusional.
Look at the empty seats.

No jog, just realistic. As soon as the deal with Nike went through, thin-skinned donny made a tweet. He followed up with several more. Maybe you should read his twitter feed more.

Your grasp of the religious beliefs of others
HAS NO BEARING ON THEIR RIGHTS.

Nor does yours on us.
