Arizona’s economy is doing just fine without Nike. We don’t need to suck up to companies that consciously denigrate our nation’s history. 8/

And finally, it shouldn’t take a controversy over a shoe for our kids to know who Betsy Ross is. A founding mother. Her story should be taught in all American schools. In the meantime, it’s worth googling her. 9/9

Let me fix this for you: We should stand together and take back the Betsy Ross flag from alt-right bigots. Thanks to Nike for bringing greater attention to the use of an American symbol by haters.

Hey Doug - the market has spoken. And it is against your myopia. "Nike has posted higher sales, boosted by strong demand in both the U.S. and China. In the fourth quarter, sales rose 4% to $10.18 billion. Its share price has climbed more than 15% so far this year."

It’s a matter of principal. I hate that jobs might be lost but sometimes principal overrides everything else. I am fed up with how one POS like Kaperneck can dictate what happens in this country or a big company like Nike with one complaint. It’s sickening.

You are abandoning new jobs in the west Valley over this? I don’t think they should have pulled them, but I also don’t care that they did. BTW If you love the flag so much, you would stand against this product, as it is seemingly against Flag Code.

You’re such a coward... you squirm when trump wants to push tariffs and you say nothing when ICE and Border Patrol is literally killing children, and you stand here, acting as if you have courage, when in reality, you’re small, in stature and courage.
