I go to Uni in Luton, and naturally, there are all race and religions there.
There are some, what I'd call, orthodox muslim males there. Beards, wearing the long gown type things, so they are clearly strict in practicising the religion.
Yet all of them wear Nike trainers - isn't that what they are essentially against?!
Serious question - why would they be against Nike trainers?
Production ethics.

HARSH?!
I'd call being lashed as a punishment when you're a rape victim is considerably worse than harsh Dan.

Nike, along with the tick swoosh, is one of the biggest corporate giants of the Eastern world. Think of consumerism, you think McDonalds, Nike, Apple and such.
