He said that he didnt make timberlands for black people.

WTF if we didn't by his shit he would be out of business cause most of the white people by tims for job purposes like construction and shit. but yet he says he didnt make tims for black people that sounds alittle rasict to me.

Have you read the whole quote or just that line?

I doubt it was a racist comment. Taken out of context as said above ^

And Im pretty sure that the guy who owns Timberland is the same guy that owns Land Rover.

So even if you quit buyin his shoes, he'd still be a rich motherf*cker.

The very best way to hurt a company is to NOT buy their product, and to NOT visit their stores.
