What he said made a lot of sense and you immediately turned it into exactly what he is talking about. :oyvey |

Personally, I feel the same way about boycotts. I only ever boycotted one thing, damn Bounty Paper Towels. *grumble* I support other people doing it if they feel there is a good reason behind it though. Sometimes I think the boycotts are for extremely stupid reasons, however. Leaving a negative review for places of poor quality is normally enough. |

Nah...this is where we disagree. Boycotts are a legitimate part of a free market. They are as legitimate a part of a negotiation as the business practices that incite them. if they aren't warranted, they won't win enough support to be effective. Edited by CautionaryTales, May 6 2016, 05:47 AM.

But you only support the kind of boycott if some leftist group(s) is behind the effort. Is that right pop? |

I support what I feel has merit. I don't support what I feel has no merit. That's how it works. Boycotts are tactical. They can work to support any political position. Edited by CautionaryTales, May 6 2016, 09:48 AM.

I see boycotts as a legitimate tactic against businesses that people find objectionable for various reason. I agree that boycotts are probably being used too frequently and for sometimes pretty ridiculous reasons. I find it ironic when conservatives whine about liberals calling for boycotts, when they call for boycotts at the drop of a hat. Like, because Starbucks' Christmas cup was just "red" and didn't say "Merry Christmas". |

Looks like C2C was wrong. Target missed its earnings last time because of the boycott. MAGA |

These major retailers have closed more than 5,000 stores in 2017 Some of the biggest names in traditional retail have closed more than 5,000 stores this year amid slumping sales and increased competition from online sellers like Amazon. Macy’s, J.C. Penney, Sears and Kmart are among the retailers that announced sweeping closures this year — and the list goes on. https://clark.com/shopping-retail/major-retailers-closing-2017/ All these closures due to boycotts? Wow, someone was sure busy not shopping! And Amazon had nothing to with it. Amazing! |

Only a conservative would seek to use the honor of those that serve this nation to divide this nation. And before you attempt it, the issue is not the display but Clones comments towards it. |
