Believe in something. Even if it means sacrificing everything. —Colin Kaepernick. Stephen Martin did exactly what Kap says you should do.

I don’t really care. Do you?

I can't even stand to see that face. A true American trader..

Some folks aren’t cut out to make smart decisions.

9 people lost their jobs because if this idiot....Martin

Kaepernick a drama queen

Good news

Fruits of racism; it should wind up fast!

California is Kap country, yet no NFL team in state will pick him up. Martin needs to come to Texas.

Super awesome

JRTheBossman Reggie!

Nike is a Dead Man Walking

Wow the dude is jus protesting an injustice he didn't shit on the flag..

Love it ! ValentinesDay

I guess he didn't need money...

草 哈哈哈哈哈哈

Good.

Hilarious

Well it didn’t help our boy Colin. Still unemployed and we’ll be for a long time!

Burn!

L🤣L

Hahahahaahhaahah. I almost feel bad for the guy. Almost.

Oh well what does this clown 🤡 stand for? How did it all begin? Did he accomplish anything? Is he playing football😁?

Kaepernick’s most lucrative career peak was taking a knee instead of proving his athletic ability on the field. Yuck 🤢

Nike uses SLAVE LABOR and materials that never biodegrade & pollute the earth. WTF are you people celebrating? You should all be boycotting Nike no matter how much you love the celebrity millionaires who are PAID to endorse a product. Omg you people are stupid seriously.

That’s what he gets😂

chanfan1 Yeah, you know... that pesky market research.

EvelDick Thoughts and prayers

Karma is a b****.

Kind of like print media.

That’s just too bad isn’t it.

good.

Better dead than red

Are you suggesting correlation, leftist ?

StephenMartin loved his inner racist child more than his own business. Like TrumpTrash ... very sad.

It’s principal

He should sue!!! Doesn’t everyone!!

Not a good businessman. Going down with the corrupt Trumptanic!

He couldn't see what was happening......and get the Nike products back into his store?

I hope he and his family are well, and they'll survive the next harsh parte of their lives. Concerning his business, oh well. You win some, you lose some.

Thots and pears

Textbook definition of cutting off your nose to spite your face.

Any good businessman knows, the customer is always right and keep your politics in the voting booth

'That part of the military respect that’s in me just cannot be sacrificed or compromised...' Freedom means Americans 'must' think as we are told? We fought the British to protect our freedom of thought and won the Cold War against the Communists for the same cause. Kaepernick7

Stupidity is expensive!

Kind of how the free market works, I’d say.

Do you ever chase real stories? Everything you post is some leftist millennial fantasy. Please chase real stories. Leftists lack spice.

Kaepernick7 The Free Market has spoken.

What's your point He made the wrong business decision. He made many wrong business decisions. That's why he's out of business. Maybe he needs to take his monkey business South, to Texas or Florida where it's appreciated.

Ha ha ha ha ..thats what he get

Free will to do as one pleases as long as the action is within the law and not doing harm unto others could hurt one’s business venture. There are other sporting products that are preferred over Nike. There are athletes who disagree with Nike’s.

Sending my thoughts and prayers Nike

Bumma huh...

That’s sad! I’m with him. Stopped buying Nike!

Racists don't have good fashion sense. I mean, have you seen their red MAGAt hats and pitchforks? Totally clashes. And usually, those claiming to be the Master Race look like they don't workout.

He is the dumbest shit ever. Wasn't about the military. Gotta be an Army dude. Yeah I am a veteran. Laughable.

As long as you’re in the mood to gloat, hows Colin’s football career going?

The mainstream media will laugh at you when your business closes if you don't agree with them.

Doesn’t he know exploiting child labor and branding coolness is highly profitable? That’s what he gets for putting principle over money.

Live and die by the sword of hate

A hard lesson to learn. Keep politics and religion out of your business.

Let freedom ring; to choose the hill on which to die.

PamAdam67507224 Couldn't happen to a nicer guy....😎

You reap what you sow.

Should have added Pig Socks rather than be killed by Amazon huh

Karma!

I guess no one told stephenmartin that ColinKaepernick protest was about PoliceBrutality. misinformed

Capitalism for the win. Should be an example to all, that boycotting things just for the sake of it is dumb, and that letting consumers make their own choices is best.

Gee, color me unconcerned. I hope he has to live in a cardboard box in Long Beach.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Nike knows marketing and Nike also knows it was taking a huge chance that Colin was going to put a dent in its business. Turns out Nike knew what it was doing.

'...its sales have declined by 15% over the last three years because of competition from online sales.' Amazing what happens when you read just a little past the headline.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👍

Y’all couldn’t wait for one of these.

Interesting....two people who lost their lively hoods for what they believe.

That’s what they get for not supporting minorities. The owner got what he stands for.

Man of principle, clearly has a back up plan to earn a living

No one takes a knee out of defiance they take a knee for subservience.. as a deaf man watching I was very confused why were they all bowing?

Going out of business to own the libs

Schadenfreude

Good

this article brings me so much joy!

Wonder how the KKK cloaks are selling?

Not Ready For Prime Time Player

That’s called divine justice
