Current Affairs Nike - Colin Kaepernick

[Moomin]

Big fan of Colin and his protest, Twitter is full of raging people talking about boycotting Nike now.

I think its a good move by Nike and honouring someone who has principles and willing to sacrifice his playing career to stand up for what he believes in.

My favourite are the people who have taken to burning their shoes whilst they're still in them.

I like the lad and fair play to him for sticking to his principles but he must realize he is being used by a company who are well known for shady projects and well poor conditions in factories in Asia. Questionable arrangement really.

He obviously needs the massive paycheck and is willing to look past how dodgy Nike are.

Wonder how his morals sit now being the face of Nike.

White American republicans telling us what is racism is great on Twitter today.

Its superb, all the people moaning about Nike are advertising there products.

Thought it a great move by Nike. Glad they stirred up all the hypocritical pseudo-patriots who support a corrupt president that sold-out our democracy to a foreign nation but don't support an athlete's first amendment right to peacefully protest an easily-documented string of police-on-black violence.

Oh no...a bunch of Trump supporting idiots are gonna stop buying Nike products because Nike had the audacity to support a black man with an opinion. What will the multi-million dollar global corporation do now? Just what will they do?!
