Got it, I see you agree with the facts. At least you can admit it, even though you speak in your own cryptic language.
70% of Nike's demographic is WHITE haha...buy up white boy.
Funny how some people only pick some facts but deny others.
This pertains to treatment of the ACTUAL flag. U.S. cannot pass a law telling you that you cannot have a flag design on clothing or on napkins...c'mon.
This purpose of providing guidance based on the Army and Navy procedures relating to display and associated questions about the U. S. Flag was adopted by all organizations in attendance. This code is the guide for all handling and display of the Stars and Stripes. It does not impose penalties for misuse of the United States Flag. ...no federal agency has the authority to issue 'official' rulings legally binding on civilians or civilian groups.
Education, it's a terrible thing for the radical leftist. Best to stay in the ignorance of the ideology.
"...[Betsy Ross] came from a devout Quaker family--and Quakers led anti-slavery activism in America...Betsy’s home colony of Pennsylvania was the 1st to abolish slavery – in 1780, 7 yrs before the Constitution."
"...[Betsy Ross] came from a devout Quaker family--and Quakers led anti-slavery activism in America...Betsy’s home colony of Pennsylvania was the 1st to abolish slavery – in 1780, 7 yrs before the Constitution."
It is not about patriotism it is about selected outrage. the Betsy Ross flag is flown regularly at U.S. events and is a symbol of the first 13 colonies of the U.S. and the Revolutionary War (hence the appearance often on July 4th.). For many years not any real public outcry that the flag refers to time that there were also slaves. In fact at the time of that Flag, only wealthy white males were really allowed to vote and women had no rights.
So Nike puts it on their shoe and as ugly as I think it looks, now there is collected outrage from Cap and twatters.
So....suddenly it is bad? Cap is getting paid by Nike, he works for them and haqs not global brnad staying power like Tiger Woods does. Tiger makes Nike hundreds of millions in golf gear so I understand why they did not drop him. But if Cap was all over the front page for cheating on his wife repeatedly in a scandal he would be dropped tomorrow.
I'm just messing around. Even if a true flag, no court would enforce it. I'm just saying it's the kind of rules cons go gaga over, but jump on Colin for inadvertently following
Whaaaaat?
Tony..... I think you just busted yourself out bro.
That statement... pretty much seals the deal on the supposition that so many here have always put forth... that you are posting from some basement somewhere in Siberia (or the like).
No one that lives in N. America, Europe, or any Western nation for that matter could have written that. Unless you're some kind of off the f'n wall hermit recluse.

I can respect him fro speaking up against police violence even if I disagree with the manner how he did it.
But don't call him a "patriot" when during his time to speak out against oppression and racism he sports a Castro t-shirt praising him. We criticize Trump for raising dictators well Kap falls in teh same boat. He has no idea of history if he considers Castro a hero, Kap should google what he did when he took office and what happened to Cubans when they tried to speak out against oppression and the government.
Haha...got me...
but cons would go gaga for flag printed underwear and wear it proudly
