Anti Second / Levi Strauss & Co. comes out for gun control

[boedicca]

Are businesses that enter the political forum suicidal these days? I don't care what side of the aisle they publicly back; its going to affect the company's bottom line and usually in a negative way.

Levi Strauss teams up with gun control group: ‘We simply cannot stand by silently’

How sad. Levi's Strauss wouldn't even exist without the pioneers and gold prospectors armed with guns who settled CA.

Where does it say anything about "anti-Second"?

Says the opposite actually.

Everytown . Nuff said. Bloombergs lying organization.

uh huh. When the hangover wears off try that in English.

Company is going to donate millions to Everytown. Bloombergs maniacs. Lying maniacs.

STILL incoherent. Try "verbs". Maybe even "complete sentences". You don't make a point with grunting noises.

Does anyone really base their clothing purchases on where that company stands on an issue?

nfl isn't a company. nor is baseball or hockey or any sporting league. it is a league made up of businesses. And it doesn't promote military, it recognizes them.

You want to distinguish between "company" and "business" to slither out of this? Based on what, whether they "make" something?

This just in --- any company or business can be engaged in either a product or a service. Entertainment could be considered either; in the abstract it's certainly spoken of as a product.

NFL (MLB, etc) are profit-making ventures: "businesses" a/k/a "companies" as that's how they're structured. If little Timmy sells lemonade on the street he's operating a business, not a company, but long before you get to the level of NFL you're a "company" as well.

Now on to Thing Two -- "it doesn't promote military, it recognizes them"

Inasmuch as there is no -- Zero --- none --- relationship between a jingo war-song exercise and a football game, there is nothing to "recognize". It's something that was NEVER PRESENT until NFL plunked it in there. And it does that and similar exercises for profit ... profit taken from your tax dollars Bubba. Profit dictated there by the same MIC war machine that generates the wars that follow.

So the answer stands --- NFL is a ready example of a company (or "businesss") that is "all ra ra [sic] pro-military". It can't be denied especially when it's injecting paid advertising into a theater where thousands of people gathered, NONE of whom came to see Jingo Jangles.

So enough of this selective outrage bullshit. It's transparent as a pane of glass.

What the fuck does 'the military' have to do with a fucking sports event?

Hm?

IN WHAT WAY did 'the military' make that sports event possible? Hm? How does a massive robotic singing of "Jingo Balls, Jingo Balls, Jingo all the way" affect how the ball travels or how points are scored? Hm? If you played a football (baseball, whatever) game without a national anthem, would it not count?

Hm?

Tell ya what Sprinkles --- go to some war-torn country engaged in civil war where which nation is in control of a particular area is not at all settled ---- and you'll find sports going on. Because it's a diversion from all that shit.

So the example STANDS, whether you're personally butthurt about what the answer is, or not.

Everything. If it wasn't for a military there'd be no sports.

Explain.

Explain how people were playing baseball during the Civil War. Explain how all those football, baseball, etc games took place before Jingo Balls started being played in front of them, the first instance of which (baseball) was sometime after the 1918 World Series. Did all those games before that just ----- not happen? Did all those NFL games before it started running out the same puppet show just ---- not happen? HOW were they able to do it?

Want another example?

Mainstream Mass Media, the 3M "company".

OK that's not a single company but the aggregate of ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, CNN, NYT, WaPo, etc etc who completely parroted the US military line while utterly ignoring the largest anti-war protests in the history of this planet going on just before the invasion of Iraq.

you really can't be this naive. my first inclination is to just fking laugh at you. but since there are rules here, let me explain it to you. many things in this world would be soooo much different had the civil war been won by the south. SOOOOOOOOO MANY THINGS. you really can't be that stupid.

The war of 1812 as well. any war in fact. name one and had it turned out differently you may not even be on this message board. you really can't be that fking naive. People sacrificed for your dumb ass.
