"SO my dudes y'all ready to burn your Nikes? 'Law Enforcement Appreciatio..."


  

          

http://www.complex.com/sneakers/2015/05/nike-law-enforcement-appreciation-day


Nike will be showing its appreciation for police tomorrow with its second annual Law Enforcement Appreciation Day. At Nike and Converse stores worldwide, law enforcement officers will receive a 30% discount on all products. All you need to do to take advantage of the deal is present your badge or ID at checkout.

So, if you've been eyeing a pair of Air Maxes, Flyknits, or Jordans, now's your chance to jump on them.

while everyone is like
F the police

no one knows what's it like
to watch the news every night before
you go to bed just to make sure
nothing happened in the neighborhood that
your significant other is working that night

so thanks nike

not all cops are bad
not all black people are bad
not all white people are bad
not all mothers are bad
not all fathers are bad
etc
etc
the list goes on and on

after 911 you know how many middle eastern people
were scared just because people lumped them all
in a terrorist category?

well it's happening now
with all police officers

its sad
and its scary

this sends the message that NO cops are bad

are they picking and choosing?
are they looking at service records?
are they denying service specifically to those cops?

any entity appreciating police for the job they do doesn't necessarily mean that the entity feels all police are good police. i'd have to ask one of the entity's representatives for its stance on that issue and wouldn't make that assumption.

i appreciate police as a general matter even though i am appalled by the fact bad police exist and/or that certain officers act badly w/o regard for them being 'bad' or 'good' overall. i dunno that Nike doesn't hold a similar position.

fuck you.

its one thing to appreciate some police who do good jobs
its another to give support voluntarily whole sale to an entity that has no inclination to change
without federal intervention and major protest from people
and for NYC for instance attack its mayor for not giving wholesale support
stop actual policing for a week
and to boot recieve a complete lack of indictments when its officers murder

from a corporation to boot

Good cops would call out the bad cops if they existed.

Lastly how can the police be "good" if their roots are bad i.e. being the result of people organized to hunt, return to confinement, and or kill black people?

In response to Reply # 323


  

          

“Complexion has influenced the focus of law enforcement from this nation’s very beginnings; the first organized police forces, according to police historian William Geller, were the varied slave patrols,” Muwakkil wrote. “Policing in this country has always had the dual purpose of maintaining social order and enforcing the racial hierarchy.”

Here's the link:

http://originalpeople.org/slave-patrols-police/

There are plenty of sites about the subject should you doubt that one in particular.

Their are a great number of cops, risking their lives, trying to keep cities safe.

I actually think the timing is perfect bc the good ones need to be appreciated moreso in times like this.

as if police brutality is a new thing?

what about the places that give discounts daily...why aren't we holding them to the same standards...

why wasn't this an issue during the 1st annual?

what has actually changed besides armchair activists being riled up...

i want a solution as much as the next person but i want the idiotic distractions and non-issues to remain ignored as they should be

i feel like a good cop trying to rein in a bad cop

Until the police can hold each other accountable for their coworkers illegal activities they're all "bad cops".

And this is rewarding them for just that.

corruption or wrongdoing is prevalent where people arent exactly exposing whats going on.

If being a police officer is the best way for someone to provide for their family and they actually try to uphold the law and protect the public from day to day to the best of their abilities, I'm not faulting anyone for that. I'd rather they keep doing what they are doing then quit and do something else, bc that just increases the % of bad cops on the street.

This has nothing to do with providing for their family. Why would you bring this completely irrelevant point up?

>and they actually try to uphold the
>law and protect the public from day to day to the best of

But that's the problem: they're NOT protecting the public from themselves. If you want to keep the public safe, do so by keeping us safe from ALL threats, that includes fucked up cops. Since they have little to no interest in doing that, they're NOT upholding the law or protecting us to the best of their abilities.

>I'd rather
>they keep doing what they are doing then quit and do something
>else, bc that just increases the % of bad cops on the street.

OR... They could do what they're hired to do: Uphold the law, protect the citizens, and arrest criminals even if they have a uniform, badge, and gun like they do.

Being a cop is a job. People work to provide for their families no? Or this doesn't apply to law enforcement?

What about the cops that do say something and lose their job over retribution. I appreciate the cops that do that as well but thats a very high standard to hold or expect from every officer. And yeah a cop that protects me while i'm doing xyz is still upholding the law whether they are or aren't trying to simultaneously take down every bad cop they see. You're also assuming that every law enforcement officer is a witness to cops abusing their power.

It has ZERO to do with this discussion. It has no bearing on anything in this thread.

Then that's even more of an indicator of how bad the problem is. If a cop is fired for bringing to light the illegal actions of another officer then the department itself is corrupt and needs to be cleared.

It's a high standard to live by but that comes with the territory. It's expected of you and you understand that the day you swear in. If you have no intention of living that way, don't become a cop.

and so far you haven't shown how it matters.

There are plenty of other jobs one can take besides being a cop if you're just trying to feed your family. How that matters in this conversation is still a mystery.

It's already been shown that cops that call out bad cops on various levels face retribution including g losing their jobs. so miss me with taking care of their families part being irrelevant.

You just don't get it, do you??? None of what you wrote makes this relevant to the conversation! You haven't connected corrupt cops to making a living as a cop within the greater context of this conversation.

There are far more professions to get into to take care of your family.

If you have a real sense of justice you simply cannot be a cop that sits idly by as other cops break the law. You either leave the force to find something else to do or you report it and risk losing your job... At which time you'll end up looking for something better so you might as well just leave the force.

First, you are assuming that all law enforcement witNess their fellow officers commmit various levels of injustice.

Now thats an assumption I don't agree with...but even assuming that was true, if that's the best way that they could provide for their family, i'm not holding them to that standard that they should find another line of work or stand up to it, and eventually be forced into anot her line of work anyway. If that's your standard fine. We all have different standards that we accept for employment, bc that is what this is, employment.

I knew a whole lot of folks that signed up to be cops when Detroit PD announced they were hiring back inna day. Same cats that were flippin burgers talmbout "fuck da poe-leece" were the same dudes I saw months later directing traffic near Greektown (no really, one of my former assistant managers at Hardee's wound up a cop directing traffic in Greektown). A whole lot of crooked ass dudes from the hood end up as cops because they need jobs and that shit happens to be available.

I almost signed up for Southfield PD and Phoenix PD and I fuckin' hate cops but I needed a job at the time.

And I think you're right. At the same time though being a profession with the potential for what appears to be pretty decent advancement opportunities it should be in the business of installing that type of mindset in its members. That would probably mean a complete change in the culture of policing though.

its good salary and benefits with limited education needed. So alot become officers for the compensation package and are really just trying to go home at the end of a quiet shift. They aren't looking to make a difference per se, they aren't looking to be the top cop, they not looking to advance. There's individuals like that in every sector.

We hire cops for a specific task: Enforce the laws of the land. Taxpayer dollars go into their pockets with the expectation that a city/county/state's statutes will be the rulebook that they will follow when executing the job we've paid for and that they have agreed to do. We also hold them to that standard; that they will uphold the laws that they enforce. When they intentionally break those laws in the course of doing their jobs we should expect that they will be held accountable by their coworkers.

This does not happen much.

Typically, it's covered up by everyone from the beat cops on up. Reports are written full of lies, witnesses are coerced, payouts go to victims with no admission of wrongdoing, and repeat offenders are just transferred to a different precinct.

This is an entirely different conversation that what you've linked.

---------------------------

"Where was the peace when we were getting shot? Where's the peace when we were getting laid out?
Where is the peace when we are in the back of ambulances? Where is the peace then?
They don't want to call for peace then.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

u are appreciated

cops and military put their lives on the line for their jobs...some are bad...some are good...both are often used in concert with other systems to oppress people...

companies showing appreciation for the former doesn't mean they are trying to reinforce police brutality...its a childish stance tbh

police brutality isn't new but yet you claim the timing of this one is wrong...the problem is bigger than that and i look forward to further shenanigans

I think most of us know that there are some good cops, and that the majority wouldn't just roll up and shoot Tamir Rice, or choke out Eric Garner.

The issue with a lot of us is that we see the horrible ones on TV, yet the ones we encounter on the daily, for much less serious situations, still tend to be assholes and love to abuse their authority. So that makes us hate damn near all of them.

49. "of course."
In response to Reply # 43


  

          

the hatred of cops is totally understandable. and unfortunate.

but it only extends so far, i imagine.

if you get stabbed by your coworker right now...who you gonna call?

if someone kills your loved one tonight...who do you want to investigate the incident?

we can hate cops all we want as long as we realize they're necessary. and we can appreciate them for being there when we need them in our times of trouble.

and we can still be enraged about police misconduct and bias in favor of police defendants in the criminal justice system. and we can demand satisfaction in cases where the cops have acted badly. we can balance all of these issues. at least some of us.

fuck you.

And when the cops do come I'm not saying shit

Why? Cuz 9/10 I'll be treated as the one who committed the crime & God forbid it happens in my neighborhood. These muthafuckas will come to your house IN BROAD DAY LIGHT asking you all types of questions related to the crime, so now my family is at risk because even if I don't say anything I'm looked at as a snitch. So nah I'll never call them.

stabbing me and just further fueling the PIC cause they had a emotional lapse that will affect the rest of their life?

and what makes you think I don't want to find a time to stab them back.

all I want in that situ is to survive and get to hospital

the only time I want people to go to jail is when they rape, or kill in cold blood. That's it.

I even hate when cops show up during a car accident. two years ago I got rear ended on the 405 near Wilshire by a Pisa. He looked nervous as shit and hit me in under his breath in spanish with the "compadre, I have a friend who can fix your car", an option I would've took, but cop took down all our info and that man prob got fucked

to me it seems the leverage ass hole cops use against you in their day to day interactions are not justified by the fact that i might "need" them down the line. you know who operates that way? the fucking mob when they are running racketeering

Then almost half of the police force are a legit threat.

75% of whites claim to have no friends that are white. When it comes to black people and the police it's relatively safe to say there are no good cops.

they aren't getting this discount bc they are good...this is not about the quality of the group's moral or ethical standing

it's simply bc they do a thankless job that pretty much says they have to put their lives in danger for the benefit of others

i also dislike our military policy but am i at Denny's or EVERY Restaurant EVER upset about military benefits...no...and i honestly believe their culture is equally as fucked up

My stance is that this is a country by the majority for the majority so I get why they do this stuff and I'm not really invested in getting upset about it.

300. "being a cop doesn't even crack the top 10 for dangerous professions"
In response to Reply # 57


  

          

You've got more than twice the chance of being "killed in the line of duty" being a construction worker than being a cop.

http://www.bls.gov/news.release/pdf/cfoi.pdf

Sales supervisors had 3 more fatalities than cops (100 vs 97), and of those fatalities Sales supervisors had a higher percentage of those deaths being from an actual homicide than cops.

The shit is laughable how they claim being a cop is a dangerous job... Maybe back in 1815 or 1915, but in 2015???


Nah.

338. "This is an underrated and often overlooked stat."
In response to Reply # 300


          

The police certainly do appeal to public sympathies by claiming their jobs are so dangerous and glorifying funerals on those rare occasions that police are killed on the job.

And we do hear about how police family members 'prey everynight for their mate to come home'. Seems pretty disingenuous in light of the statistics. It would sound bizarre for a construction worker's wife to say 'I prey for his return everyday'.

Also should be noted that police force is often justified in this way. The ol' "I'm going home tonight" defense for when they are the physical aggressors. Again, the stats don't justify them constantly harping on this.

And none of that justification avoids the cross-cultural analysis. The fact is....the US has a huge problem in law enforcement policy. There is an antagonistic approach that is different from other western nations. They are not following a policy of 'peace-making'. Cell-phones are just as prominent in Canada, England, rest of Europe......why aren't those countries experiencing the same level of police brutality scandals and incidents? It's because other nations police culture focus moreso on peace-making.....the US focuses on 'getting the bad guy'. It's a conflict-oriented approach. In England....a dip in crime convictions is seen as success. In America....it's seen as incompetent policing. American police are taught to seek out crime and get the bad guy instead of the more traditional role as public servant or peacekeeper.

351. "There was a clip posted here last week....."
In response to Reply # 350


          

An Australian dude visiting the US and witnessing the aftermath of a police shooting. I think his reaction sums it up pretty good. He just can't wrap his head around the idea that police would shoot someone during a routine altercation/arrest/situation. American cops will say 'He made sure that he went home to his family that night'.

But why exactly do we pay police relatively high salaries? Same reason that Crab fishers get paid well. Part of the money is to compensate for the risks involved. You are getting PAID to put yourself at risk. So for a cop to shoot somebody in order to avoid even minimal personal risk.....they're shirking their responsibilities.

have been assholes from jump and apologized after, and cops who were respectful from jump, as well as cops that were very helpful and/or cool.

I'm shocked when I hear people say that they only have had negative experiences with law enforcement. Ya'll might need to live and socialize in different neighborhoods.

79. "i have deposed and cross examined cops"
In response to Reply # 69


  

          

in police misconduct cases including police brutality cases. i regularly work on cases where i see police acting badly and i don't agree that all or even MOST police are bad. probably b/c i also see plenty cases where the police have NOT acted badly. where they've been as fair as we can expect. even w/BLACK suspects and complainants.

still, i can see where the folks who are so enraged by bad policing that they are totally anti-police are coming from. i disagree w/them but i hear them.

fuck you.

I feel for victims of police brutality, but i also feel for the cops who are just trying to do their job and are hoping that every day is quiet day, as well as law enforcement who are in the thick of things dealing with major/organized crime.

If ppl saw bad cops being held to account more often A LOT of the animus would die down. It's the feeling that they are above the law that enrages most.

That code starts at the top and trickles its way down. The 'not bad' cop you run into on the street walking the beat or in his squad car isn't in a position to take on any precinct or end police corruption on a big or small scale.

In response to Reply # 56


  

          

And if you're a black man who's a victim of a crime and the cops do miraculously roll up you being black are likely to be assumed as the assailant if the crime is white to black.

If the crime is black to black you're both getting shot, tasered, man handled, etc.

If you're white the cops may actually help. I couldn't really speculate on how it would go down exactly in a white to white scenario though.

Are you maybe 5 even, really light skinned, and somewhat effeminate? All jokes aside--
I haven't had the worst of experiences with the psychos in blue, but the majority of my limited interactions have been negative in some way. I'd say 70/30. And to be completely honest they shouldn't be trusted on general principle due to their history and overall ethnic make up.

I've been in situations with cops riding passenger to dark skinned looking linebackers too though. And I've had positive and negative interactions.

At the same time, I'm always respectful and non-argumentative and try to cooperate without giving up my rights and am generally not breaking the law, save for some traffic infraction or drinking and driving in my younger days.

In response to Reply # 56


  

          

Because the "OH YEAH!? WELL WHO YOU GONNA CALL???" defense is incredibly disingenuous.

Unless you're ok with handling such things on a street level, you exercise the only real option you have-911.

You might as well ask "FOR THOSE THAT HATE GETTING UP FOR WORKING AT 5AM, WHAT DO YOU DO FOR MONEY?"

Most will still get their ass up and go to work like always.

This isn't the trump card you guys like to make it out to be. I don't have to like or trust police to know that if someone breaks into my house at 3am, calling the cops is the best overall course of action for about 59 reasons. That still means I need to take ridiculous precautions like making sure I'm not holding my phone when they arrive to ensure some trigger happy buffoon with a badge doesn't shoot me because the Galaxy Note 3 in my hand made him fear for his life.

I've never experienced actually calling the cops to appear at a scene and them not being helpful.

i've experienced going to the police station and no one wanting to take the time to fill out a report though.....smh

So you'd rather live in a society with no law enforcement?

It's not a question you should even bother asking unless I've said something to indicate the answer was yes.

Either show that work or say something relevant to my position.

A conclusion that had no basis whatsoever.

Lol@forming a conclusion with zero evidence to support it and acting like its unreasonable to ask you to show what you based it on.

So, again, how on earth did you arrive at such a ridiculous conclusion?

124. "i feel u"
In response to Reply # 114


  

          

u might need a ride along though cause I'm team FTP for the most part too and even i've met some legit good cops

cops are just humans with shittier responsibilities

i've worked for enough places to see most people not only aren't good at their jobs but often aren't trained as they should be...or dont even want to be where they are...cops are no different to me

i've also seen some people that take their job seriously and some of them are even good at it...and they even try to hold other people accountable and are often handicapped in doing anything about it (especially in non-private areas)

i just think at this point they need to be held to a higher standard...and like most industries...they fighting that tooth and nail

inner cities need to be policed completely differently

and i'll add people that have bad days at work (customer service positions or not) where they deal poorly with the people they interact with and

people who are in position of power who will abuse their authority all the time, some of the times, 1 time out of 100.

Cops are no different in those aspects either.

So to say "just like any other job/person" is wrong headed. To those with much-- much is expected. Unless of course the truth is that all the hero cop stuff is bullshit.

but to pretend that they aren't people dealing with the same issues, personality traits, qualities that every other human being has is isn't being realistic at all.

In which you failed to answer the first time around. Now why you're trying to infer that it was anything more than that is beyond me. It's clear that I'm not the pompous one here.

That's some serious deflection right there, as though there's absolutely no merit to the distrust many have for the police.

and many times for good reason. However, I recognize that they serve a purpose and the world would be much different without Law Enforcement.

But it seems like ya'll(collectively) hate cops, feel that there are no good ones and that the world would be better without them.

u have zero idea what you are talking about

i hate jordan and would only mourn the lack of an alternative to lightweight comfortable basketball shows if the baltimore riots relocated to the oregon riots

u refuse to argue the merits of your stance bc it's so full of holes and shit...fine

middle america is to blame for the love of cops and military but they aren't to blame for police brutality...they just happen to have the same accent

i haven't expressed an opinion on Nike's action other than to say i don't take the action to mean that Nike's position is that all cops are good.

i responded in support of labcoat's assertion that not all cops are bad as i tend to agree w/that position.

fuck you.

136. "after reading labcoat's response"
In response to Reply # 126


  

          

i think in part Nike is doing this b/c they want that $ from LEO family too - not just LEO. i hadn't even considered LEO family in all of this madness until after i read that.

it reminded me of one of my cop depositions where the officer told me all she wants at the end of every shift is go home safely. the way she said that really struck me. labcoat reminded me of all of the thousands or even millions of LEO family who want that same thing for their relative(s).

of course i was already aware of all the black mothers and other relatives who want the same for their sons (and daughters) - including my own. still, being reminded that LEO family needs some support too - from SOMEWHERE is fine w/me. not unlike the support i see offered to military family (see: Michelle Obama). i'm not ready to sign up to volunteer my time passing out sammiches and cookies to LEO family or whatnot though. lol

anyway, i cynically believe Nike is doing this for the $.

fuck you.

if you don't like what they are doing, then don't support them. Keep in mind Nike owns several other companies. Converse is doing this as well.

OMG stupidest non critical thinking following reasons:

- they already had one (again HANH!? but abolitionist we been slaves for a year why change?)
- but most cops are nice (yes you are supporting bad ones with this Nike if you aren't not specifying and supporting the current state of policing)
- boycotts have no effect (up there with not voting btw)

it never will. Remember that.

There is nothing "simple-minded" by the suggestion of not supporting companies that you dont' agree with...it's actually the most realistic thing to do NOW, CURRENTLY in this situation. Because the fact of the matter is, they are not going to cancel this event tomorrow...they are already being ridiculed about it via social media but that ridicule won't trump the money they stand to make with the ppl who will support tomorrow (Nike is a business, business want to make money).

The ONLY way to hurt Nike is to hurt their pockets...the only way to systematically do that is for everyone to stop supporting them...and we aren't talking no one day or two day boycott, I mean period. Find something you like better, and support that. Uplift the companies YOU SEE are doing good...show them you don't need nor want their product.

What do you have to gain by coming at anyone's neck in this thread about Nike and cops? Nothing....but it's the easiest thing to do, and that is actually more "simple" than saying "stop supporting."

But do you.

what is Nike doing to support police brutality

supporting cops via discounts is the flimsiest of corporate support ever

and she hasn't even laid out any cogent reasons she believes they are in opposition to the movement

it's silly, i'm calling her all types of names bc this is typical hashtag stance holding

i can think 5 good to decent reasons to boycott Nike and none of them have anything with LEO appreciation discounts

a good way to get a large group of people in during a week devoted to National Law Enforcement. They are going to make a lot of money they normally wouldn't make...that's just what this boils down too.

And you're right, there are at least 10 other reasons to be mad at Nike but this is at the bottom of the list...but everyone has an agenda. This is LFresh's today I guess.

ive had ppl tell me to burn in a fire (what a laugh) just because i expressed a different opinion, it is what it is in this weirdo internet courage space, stop acting brand new

prototype

stand ur ground, believe in urself,
believe in love, prepare urself for love, remove the negativity from ur life, and accept the love u kno u deserve

im not even sure what you are doing here...is it your intent to ridicule valid critiques of your stance ineffectively?

or are u really implying that bc of the timing...it means they are corporate sponsor of police brutality

or are u really saying that cops being nice really does have something to do with anything you are taking a stance against

or are you suggesting a boycott bc that will somehow take money out of cops pockets through loss of discounts

Where's Sway?

im sure he's got more answers than this

In response to Reply # 244


          

This thread is kinda sad...

I know this shit has been in the news and there are a lot of cops who aint about shit...

But good cops exist and there are a lot of them.

This is no different than getting mad when people say Blacks aint about shit because they saw a Black criminal on the news.

When we talk shit about the cops.. we are talking about the bad ones.

TBH the fact that you're even a mod here fits squarely within Jag's narrative of OK-sanctioned aggression, bullying, and toxicity. *shrug*

What exactly are they supposed to do? How does anyone know that they haven't done anything? If all the shit you see happening now hasn't forced the police force to change what makes you think that some random cop complaining is gonna do anything? Who do they even complain to? The dirty cop that's in charge?lol

And I don't even mess with (most) cops like that, but I've definitely been in a situation where I was getting pressed by a cop and her partner came and checked her and apologized to me. I've seen shit like that happen a few times. I'm sure that's not everybody's reality, but let's not sit up here and act like there aren't any decent cops that do what they can.

Basically you support the wrong doing by supporting the person who chose to join a thoroughly corrupt organization with little or no accountability. So fuck your feelings (person in a police family), similar to you know-- "fuck your breath" as one officer put it.

>What exactly are they supposed to do?

Find a better job.

>If all the shit you see
>happening now hasn't forced the police force to change what
>makes you think that some random cop complaining is gonna do
>anything? Who do they even complain to? The dirty cop that's
>in charge?lol

If they wanted to change they could. It's not difficult to expel or screen for bad eggs. If you can stockpile military grade weapons you can weed out undesirables. The truth is cops are in the business of harassing black people. Always have been always will be. Everything is working as intended.

>And I don't even mess with (most) cops like that, but I've
>definitely been in a situation where I was getting pressed by

That's actually a technique called "good cop bad cop".

to hear this is the second annual event of this nature, and it was done around the same time last year, I can't be mad. It's just an unfortunate coincidence this year.

That said, if it bothers you then don't support Nike or Converse or Hurley or Umbro or Cole Haan. or whoever.

It's okay. Stop supporting and put your money in business who do what you agree with. I promise it's fine.

That said, I actually do know good cops...good cops who do stand up to bad cops...some good cops who dont' know any bad cops...some good ex cops who were forced out because of bad cops. It's good and bad everywhere...and to those good cops, yeah you should be able to get Jordans for the low if they are in stock.

That's another thing that I hate about the organization. The Scotts/Celts worship adds a whole new level of good op boy shit I can't dig. Hope I don't come out my mouth with something stupid if a group passes by.

206. "the problem is we like to use use protective terms like law enforcement"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

we should support "law enforcement". no we shouldn't. it completely makes all cops monolithic. either you love them or hate them. when i reality i might fuck with Officer Jones, Officer Washington, and Officer Kaminski, but i might hate (and within reason) bitch ass Officer Williams, Officer Morales, and Officer Zimmerman.

its not Black or white....its good people and it's bad people. and to celebrate all law enforcement like their heroes is wrong. some of them are heroes. some just do their job, and if you're job is rooted in shitty politics, then you might be shitty too. and some are absolute monsters. as Americans we do that all the time, and it frustrates me to no end.

and i'll tell you what...if Nike also gives a 20% discount to everyone who sued the police department for violence or discrimination, then i'd be impressed.

fuck em all. i love getting the day off, but i'm not a fan of all the rah-rah celebration that goes on. the only holiday i kinda like is Thanksgiving because of the basic principle it exudes. i hate it cause if the basic principle it was founded around. and you know what happens 2 minutes after Thanksgiving is official over....Black Friday and extreme capitalism.

your birthday. i think that's all you should get and you should celebrate the fuck out of it.

this is par for the course. They're throwing the pigs a bone. It's disgusting and inappropriate, but this is how capitalism functions. Anyone saying all cops aren't bad is an idiot. No good cops in a racist system. Let them get their pitiful 30% discount. Enjoy it while it lasts.

I also understand where the other posters are coming from.

In this thread, sure...But outside of the OKP universe this has been happening....

Business Insider

Nike is facing harsh criticism for offering a 30% discount to police officers

Link: Read more: http://www.businessinsider.com/nike-criticized-for-30-police-discount-2015-5#ixzz3aROUjDk9



Critics are blasting the brand for supporting law enforcement in the wake of a string of shootings involving police officers who killed black men, Quartz reports.

The May 13 promotion coincides with National Police Week, Quartz points out.

But it comes just one month after two nationally publicized shootings — one in South Carolina and one in Oklahoma — in which two black citizens, Walter Scott and Eric Harris, were killed by law enforcement officers.

Critics have called the promotion tone-deaf and now some are calling for a boycott of the sportswear company.

In a statement to Business Insider, Nike said it has held discount days in its stores for first responders, including law enforcement and the military, since the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks against the US.

"Nike has no intention to offend anyone, nor to imply that we are insensitive to the serious and important issues between law enforcement and black communities in America," the company said. "We care about and support efforts to continue discussions to create positive change and bring equality for everyone in our society."
