Florida is likely to notice an improvement that will certainly count.

When I first heard about this mythical boycott (because of SB1070), I was in Prescott hitting the gun stores. I met a man and a woman from California at one store where they were spending hundreds of dollars, and I mean 100 dollar bills, stocking up on ammo. The guy was a former Marine major. He and my brother in law, also a former Marine, wouldn’t stop Semper Fi-ing long enough for this old dog-faced soldier to get in a Hoo-Wah! Anyway, they were on their way to Scottsdale to purchase a whole laundry list of stuff. He actually had a list of appliances, big screen TV and stuff like that. I don’t know how the heck they were going to get all of that stuff in their car. Probably had to rent a U-Haul. LOL! He said it was his answer to the boycott.

I will point this out. If there was a ‘real’ boycott....of a massive scale....it’d hurt minority employees more than anyone else. They are the ones who work at the hotels and restaurants, for $8 or $9 an hour.

The reality is people talk about boycott as though it will only punish one group of people. That’s not how they work in reality.

According to his girlfriend, Martin attacked Zimmerman because he thought Zimmerman is homosexual, and therefore a preparatory pedophile.

When they boycott a business, does that mean they won’t loot it?

Yeah, why should I be able to defend myself when some drug crazed gangsta comes after me?

Does this mean that all the Coloured people have to move out of Florida?

“Dr. Patricia Newton, president emeritus, National Association of Black Psychiatrists, was so outraged by the Zimmerman verdict that she walked away from a $1 million dollar contract she was about to sign for a conference in Florida. “

She needs to see a psychiatrist because she is nutty as a fruitcake.
Now we have black psychiatrists, as opposed to having psychiatrists that happen to be black?

Good opportunity for Florida to secede.

I whole heartedly approve!!

of course, this also means the citizens of Florida will no longer send in federal income tax... and all northerners will stay out

additionally, if you’re a thug and feel the ‘stand your ground’ law threatens your ‘livlihood’ ... then by all means, please... move to the northeast

sounds like a win-win to me.

good plan!!

If Florida offers me a million dollar contract I’m going to walk away from it too. I promise....just as soon as it’s offered.....I mean it!

This boycott could impact Florida crack dealers, liquor stores and chicken shacks.

The vast majority of psychiatrists and psychologists are themselves certifiable. And lots of them are hooked on the same psychotropics they prescribe like candy for behaviors that used to be considered normal parts of life and growing up.

I wish these vermin would boycott the US. They could cozy up to Cuba, Venezuela or Vermont.

Is there an Institute for a White World?
A National Association of White Psychiatrists?
Why? Cause that would be racist but it’s not
when they do it.
Amazing how that works.

Boycotts work both ways, and it is about time for gun owners to boycott black businesses that support black violence against others. Start with this idiotic newspaper.
