I don't buy anything with a logo, including Carthart. They should pay me to advertise for them, not vise versa.

I think if the guy had just been ignored in the beginning the whole thing would have faded away very quickly. But no, the press had to make a big deal out of it. IT was one man doing a protest. Now Nike is trying to make a profit from it.

Now Nike is trying to make a profit from it. Agreed. Cultural appropriation for profit. What next? Nike: The official outfitter of Antifa.

I've never boycotted anything in my life. But I think this move has enraged a lot of people and it could be bad for nike in the long run. I will personally never buy nike again and I think there are millions more who feel the same. This is the first time I've seen outrage to this level from middle of the road to right folks. The president of the fraternal order of police put out an awesome statement.

The loss in revenue from older folks will be more than made up by millennials that will buy anything that is controversial.

Nike wont see another penny from my house hold and unfortunately we had plenty of their product but it will go to a good cause.

It's fascinating what people become "outraged" about. They literally had children working in sweat shops...nothing but crickets. Ad campaign with controversial "celebrity"...burn em.

I cant stand everytime someone brings up a problem you dont want to acknowledge people just bring up something that has nothing to do with the issue and say "cops killing kids??? what about abortion???""
