Cliffs notes

Nike sent out special sneakers to stores for 4th of July

They have the Betsy Ross flag

Colin Kapernick called them and said he was offended

Nike asked all retailers to send back shoes

Over the ****ing Betsy Ross Flag

It offended Kapernick who wore socks with pigs in police uniforms to practice in his last nfl season

This country is going to ****

I fully expect Cheeto Mussolini to tweet about it soon, though, it’s exactly the kind of **** that gets the base frothing at the mouth like Pavlovian dogs.

Pretty much all of them, filthy. Acquiring and holding territory for your people has always been much easier if you exterminate as much of the opposition as possible. It's only in the last few years that we've become woke enough to call it genocide and condemn it.

Yes! And he can use his influence to divert profits away from greedy shareholders, rapacious lenders and scurrilous executives and instead pay everyone a living wage. Of course he'll be giving up most of his million(s) dollar endorsement deal as well.

Kap may suck as a QB but he's the leader we deserve.

Filthy gets to play cards for a living and he can afford to live in the most expensive city in the country and buy million dollar beds

But he hates America
