Colin Kaepernick ruined the NFL after he started the National Anthem boycott by ‘taking a knee.’
Now it’s Nike’s turn.
Americans launched a boycott against Nike after finding out Kaepernick was chosen to be the face of its campaign.
One man tweeted a video of his Nike’s burning with a caption that read, “First the @NFL forces me to choose between my favorite sport and my country. I chose country. Then @Nike forces me to choose between my favorite shoes and my country. Since when did the American Flag and the National Anthem become offensive?”
