I'm with you.  I don't buy their products outright; do they have any 
subsidiaries?

Tamara,
 WHENEVER, you can speak up for animals, WHEREVER, you
can speak up for animals, IT IS IMPORTANT TO DO SO. It
is a long, slow battle, but we must NEVER MISS AN
OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK UP FOR ANIMALS... 
WE CAN ALL MAKE A DIFFERENCE, NO MATTER HOW SMALL, IF
IT AMOUNTS TO JUST NOT BUYING THAT DEAD TURKEY FOR 
THANKGIVING DINNER...
I HOPE YOU CAN APPRECIATE MY POINT AND MY FEELINGS
HERE. I REALLY DO NOT THINK WE COULD HURT THEM, NIKE,
AT ALL , BUT TO USE THEM, AS A PLATFORM, TO SCREAM OUR
LUNGS OUT FOR ANIMAL RIGHTS IS A GREAT
OPPORTUNITY...NOT TO MENTION SLAMMING VICK.
APPARENTLY, YOU HAVE BEEN THINKING ON THOSE SAME LINES
THESE LAST 15-YEARS WHEN IT COMES TO HUMAN RIGHTS?
ACTING ON WHAT YOU HAVE HEARD. GOOD FOR YOU! 
NIKE MUST BE  KIND OF  LIKE, TO PEOPLE, WHAT  IAMS IS
TO ANIMALS? BOTH COMPANIES ,JUST LOOKING AT PROFITS
WITH COMPLETE DISREGARD TO DECENCY, KINDNESS***IAMS
CONTINUES WITH  ANIMAL TESTING, INFLICTING HORRIBLE
ABUSES ON DOGS AND CATS.. SO MANY HAVE GOTTEN IN
THEIR FACE AND EVEN STOPPED BUYING THEIR PRODUCTS TO
NO AVAIL...YET!
 THE TIME IS COMING, HOWEVER, BECAUSE THEIR UGLY
LITTLE SECRET IS OUT...I JUST WANTED TO SPILL THE
BEANS ONCE AGAIN, HERE, LIKE EVERYONE HERE DOES NOT
ALREADY KNOW ABOUT IAMS... BUT, ANYWAY, THE MORE WE
CAN RAISE THESE TYPE OF ISSUES, THE BETTER. WE DO WANT
TO INFORM AS MANY AS POSSIBLE OF THE UGLY LITTLE
SECRET OF VICK'S DOG ABUSE. THIS IS A NEW STORY...A
LOT OF PEOPLE OUT THERE, MAY HAVE MISSED THE BRIEF
NEWS  ACCOUNT OF THIS STORY AND WE SURE DO NOT WANT
THIS SLIMEBALL TO THINK HE CAN JUST SIT IT OUT AND
THINGS WILL BLOW OVER FOR HIM AND HIS BUDS... : LIKE
THE LAST TIME HE GOTTEN ATTENTION FOR HIS ABUSES OF
DOGS...
WE DO NOT NEED TO LOSE OUR ENTHUSIASM AND MOMENTUM
HERE.  A KINDER WORLD IS WHAT WE ALL NEED TO BE
WORKING TOWARDS...I THINK IT IS SUPER YOU HAVE BEEN
AWARE OF NIKE ALL THESE YEARS...AND A LITTLE THORN IN
THEIR SIDE TOO,  REMINDING THEM...BLESS YOUR HEART!  
 THANK YOU! GLENDA

Right.  I have been boycotting Nike myself for years because I was runner and I thought they just plain made horrible products!  So my boycott was totally related to that fact that the crap they produced was crap!  Sometimes it takes a particular aspect of an issue to get people galvanized.  Sadly, sweat-shop conditions and child labor in third world countries is so out-of-sight-out-of-mind for some people, they just don't care.  That's wrong, but I'd like to think that if you add one more reason to the already extensive list that hits them closer to home, maybe you will get some of the most reluctant of the reluctants to participate...for once!
