Nike, make the shoe... we'll be okay...

Nike, make the shoe... we'll be okay...

Why is this shoe being tunnel visioned as being offensive? It's a handsome shoe. stars representing the original colonies.
[ , if you count Nova Scotia, but don't, so the honor of went to Vermont , in 91.]

Betsy Ross and a handful of other Seamstresses sewed the first flag, although , "Supposedly", because there is a lack of historical evidence and lack of documentation supports this.

Kaepernick is entitled to his feeling of being "Offended", but does he have to ruin "Fun" others? ..No. He really doesn't. He, as anyone else, feeling , "Offended" [which means really nothing] could have sat at home and pouted.

Yes, a of moronic extremist opposed to diversity, appropriated the -star Betsy Ross flag, but who really attention to ? And most of them could have appropriated the Ford truck as their choice vehicle for getting around to meetings. Does somebody want to tell Ford to stop making trucks?

People need to stop being so easily offended about everything in history, stop demanding everything offends you, be removed....if allow these whiny people to remove everything, our society , more specifically, snowflake people, will have decimated our history, and really shouldn't allow to happen.

Write Nike and tell them , "Making the shoe is okay, 'll be fine."

...and happy 4th of July. Be safe. [Edit]...and one more picture; President Obama's inauguration two - star flags [Thirteen-star flags]hung all to see.

You going to get a lot of hits! When you talk politics, or being politically correct, you draw attention. Good blog.

I am so tired of "offended people" They need to get a life and move forward and hoe their offspring do not turn out like them. I think Nike should produce and market the shoe. How can anyone be offended???

Let’s not upset the snowflakes. I hope Nike’s biggest competitor makes that type of shoe. Will be a huge success.

i am sick and tired of this political correctness crap...hey, i am no where near to support racism and hate...in fact, i am one of the minority myself, and faced the racism saying from people out there...(i hate the peal harbor day...i am a Japanese...i live in a small town in the ol' South, in the middle of major Redneck County, where there are lot of people has ancestors fought for WWII and lost their lives and such, so you get an idea...i actually avoid to go out on that day...if i must)

there are always so many opinions, actually that's the beauty of this world...but there are so many people who get offended to other opinions...does that mean, they can silence their opinions, just because you are offended by them??? i don't think so...they had expressed their own opinions, why can i express my opinion???

as far as the flag goes, our family (the one i am married into) has someone who fought in Revolutionary War...and in Civil War...it was a good thing, they did not die in the conflicts, otherwise my family is not here today...if we want to recognize their contribution to the country, why can i fly the flags??? it doesn't mean, we want you to know, we were the slave master, and beat the shit out of those poor slaves...no where near that...our family was quite poor farmers back then...we just want to give the recognition of their service by flying the flags, that's all...but again, some people would say, oh i am offended???

well, we can't change the history...but we can learn from the past mistakes and change it, by teaching our kids not to make the same mistakes...making the problem disappear because you are offended by it, ain't gonna help nothing...at all...

well...that's MY OPINION...if you don't like it, you can go fXXk yourself...

So what if it "Unintentionally offends"!
The offended would just have to find a way to get over it.
