Nike ditches shoe with Betsy Ross flag after input from Colin Kaepernick

He continues to be frozen out of the NFL, but he isn’t being silenced.

According to the Wall Street Journal, former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick has persuaded Nike to scrap plans to sell a shoe featuring the 13-star version of the American flag, known as the Betsy Ross flag. Kaepernick informed Nike that the 13-star version of the flag constitutes an “offensive symbol” due to its connection to an age of slavery. Nike agreed, and the shoe has been pulled.
“Nike has chosen not to release the Air Max 1 Quick Strike Fourth of July as it featured the old version of the American flag,” a Nike spokeswoman told the Wall Street Journal. Nike has not specified a reason for the move.

I don't give a moldy turd if ANY "major athletic" sportswear corporation stays in business or not. I never owned a pair of Nike shoes, nor do I plan to in the future. When I was in practice I did enjoy my choices of over-the-ankle dress boots that I usually wore and they cost more than most "athletic" shoes.

What's fucking next? Eliminating the "13" original states because of "slavery???" All on the whim of some feetzball NIGGER or any other NIGGER that complains???

I wonder how long (((the chosenites))) will let their precious shekels be lost on the whim of one of their pets. Well, hell, the "new design" may make them more shekels. Now I'm wondering if this was a (((highly guarded))) advertising scheme.

I just hope to see some fucking sanity in the kwa in the years I have left here on "spaceship earth."
