NIKE said NO to our first American flag. Just say NO to NIKE!
After a complaint from Colin Kaepernick, NIKE withdrew a sneaker that featured an image of the 13-star Betsy Ross flag. Kaepernick and others are claiming that the iconic flag -- considered by many to be the first official flag of the United States -- is somehow racist.
It took just hours for NIKE to bow to Kaepernick, and the shoes were pulled from the market.
Grassfire is launching a "Just Say NO To NIKE" CITIZEN STATEMENT, rallying patriotic Americans to take a stand against NIKE and others who are determined to purge our nation under a false pretense of division and racism. Let's tell NIKE we're saying NO until the company stops it's attacks on our nation!
THE PETITION STATES:
To: NIKE Officials
I'm joining the "Just Say NO to NIKE" campaign to let you know I am outraged by your purging of the Betsy Ross flag. Because you bowed to politically correct pressure and said no to one of our nation's first official flags, I'm just saying NO to NIKE and NIKE products until you stop these attacks.
I already threw all my Nike stuff in the trash
stop giving Colin attention and he will go away.
Dumb ex-football player, throw him out of America.
Talk about listening to a person that has a misconception of what Betsey Ross believed in (Anti-slavery) You and he should be ashamed
Will never buy Nike anything in the future.
It is a shame that Nike bowed to pressure from one man. The shoe was awesome, and I am
sure would have been a big seller. I will no longer be buying Nike products, unless the attaches on our flag and anthem stop.
I will never buy another product from Nike if they choose not to honor the United States of America’s flag if you don’t like what this country stands for you go to another country and sell your merchandise !
Are Nike’s owners American??
I’ll NEVER buy Nike products for my family again….NEVER!!!!!!
Gary Slate I have been a fan of Nike for many years but your recent abandonment of our great American flag to go along with Colin Kirkpatrick and his outrageous complaint regarding the Betsy Ross Flag shoe disgusted me terribly. I am a veteran and I love my country and you (Nike), have turned your back on me and every God fearing, American loving individual in this great land. I will never purchase another Nike product or set foot in any store that carries your product until you make a formal apology to all of America.
Gary Slate
Wish you hadn’t done that!
You are biting the hand that feeds you. Wake up!
It’s time that Christians and Americans in general stand up to these continued attacks on our heritage and our beliefs.
Never did think that Nike was a good product. Just over priced.
If a company that makes its money in the United States can’t respect the US Flag, maybe they should stop doing business in the United States.
I wouldn’t own a pair of nikes [no cap on purpose] if you paid me. Aren’t the made in China?
Nike’s management are cowards and should be ashamend of do away with the sneaker with the 13 state flag which was made to lead the men who won our freedom.
sure would have been a big seller. I will no longer be buying Nike products, unless the attaches on our flag and anthem stop.
