Colin Kaepernick puts his name on Nike products – big time sellers of footwear

Nike’s worth sourced from The Motley Fool: 

“The simplest measure of Nike’s worth

The stock market gives the most obvious indication of a simple valuation of a company. Nike currently has about 1.35 billion shares of publicly traded stock outstanding. A price of around $56 per share puts the value of Nike’s publicly traded shares at around $75 billion. However, Nike has non-traded Class A shares outstanding as well. When you add those in, Nike’s total market capitalization rises to about $94 billion.”

SAN FRANCISCO, CA – SEPTEMBER 05: A billboard featuring former San Francisco 49ers quaterback Colin Kaepernick is displayed on the roof of the Nike Store on September 5, 2018 in San Francisco, California. Nike launched an ad campaign to commemorate the 30th anniversary of its iconic “Just Do It’ motto that features controversial former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick and a message that says “Believe in something. Even if it means sacrificing everything.” Justin Sullivan/Getty Images/AFP == FOR NEWSPAPERS, INTERNET, TELCOS & TELEVISION USE ONLY ==

“Believe in something. Even if it means sacrificing everything.”

Just do it.

This is Colin Kaepernick’s message to the entire world?


Where’d his hair go? Sacrificed it in the photo for a footwear company to use his face on their feet and the feet of the entire world?


To stay rich, because he doesn’t play football any more? So rather than work for the money at a real job, he hijacks football stadiums and flips his wig to sports fans, the military, law enforcement and white people?


And NIKE just paid him for that service. What is he going to do with all that money? Who is he going to give all that money to?


JUST DO IT?


Just do what, is my question and has always been my question. What pervert from Beaverton, Oregon thought that one up?


Just do what?


Whatever anybody is thinking they’d like to do when they encounter that slogan on another person?


Just do what?
  • kill someone?
  • rape someone?
  • steal someone’s car?
  • push someone into the street?
  • run someone down with your car?
  • spit in somebody’s food?
  • drug somebody’s drink?
  • scream fire in a theatre?
  • scream bomb in an airplane?
  • blow up a school?
  • plan a massacre?
  • put a suicide belt on?
  • blow up a stadium?
  • steal somebody’s shoes?
  • throw a dog off a building
  • set someone on fire?
  • eat somebody’s face?
  • smash a baby against the wall?

What? Just do what?

If it’s to do a good deed, then that needs to be interpreted – those who blow up buildings and people for religious or ideological reasons think they’re doing a good deed.

If it’s to show a kindness, then that doesn’t require sacrificing everything. It requires nothing that resembles a sacrifice.

I’ve been an animal rights activist for decades. I never sacrificed. I went without. There is a world of difference between the two.

NIKE is not responsible for what people do when they read or see that slogan > JUST DO IT.

Did Russia really make US citizens on social media vote for Donald Trump according to the democratic populace fueled by the democratic elite by paying for negative political ads regarding Hillary Clinton and the American democratic system of government? If the answer is yes, then NIKE will be held responsible in a court of law for all of the above.

Did Donald Trump becoming president really cause the entire membership of the democratic party to go off the rails and become hate mongers expressing a desire to destroy the American system of government as we know it, by denying half the populace the right to free speech and by undermining the executive, judicial and legislative branches of government? If the answer is yes, then NIKE will be held responsible in courts of laws all over the world for actions taken against individual people, other species, groups, nations and property based on that powerful slogan > JUST DO IT.

Note: There are a lot of loose ended people in the world with all kinds of hair dos, who will follow instructions when they are concisely communicated, as long as you don’t tell them HOW WHEN WHERE or for what reason to do it. But there’s only one fuzzy haired person hijacking stadiums for the purpose of disrupting a sport, a nation and a world for an extremely narrow agenda. The USA has unions to help workers address issues of unfair treatment in the work place – even for multi-millionaires.

It looks like the American black populace slept through 9-11. Guess they didn’t feel the horror that sticks like skin to the American white populace – to this day.

The American black needs to find it’s own soul, instead of hijacking the souls of their unsuspecting victims.

Ditch the slogan is my recommendation.


Ditch the slogan. JUST DO IT period.
