If you don't understand the difference between The Chinese Mainland run by the Chinese Communist Party and the free, democratic country of Taiwan you should do some reading as your country has signed agreements to put American lives on the line to defend one of them.
As to the issue at hand, clearly you have not read the trademark filing, the statements issued by ASI (who lisenced the trademark) and the most recent actions by the CEO of Specialized itself all of which have rendered your assertions mute.
Please don't 'stay ignorant' flea biscuit.
Way to hide behind false patriotism to take a shot at someone. I did not make a joke about dead or wounded soldiers in Afghanistan. The fact that you would say that only confirms what I already knew. You are scum.
The CEO of specialized had no other choice but to cave on this issue I suspect his decision had more to do with the court of public opinion than anything else.
Also, I am aware of the agreement the US has with Taiwan/Chinese Taipei and it makes me sick to think of a US serviceman potentially risking his life to save and protect the likes of you.
