That happened in the 90s in NYC.
Put the price of Timberlines out of reach for me, so I switched to Wolverine. One day I go to my local shoe store to get a pair. Not carrying them anymore. Owner told me that the only Wolverine sales he had were myself and another working man. Considering the mark-up he made off the kids with Timberline, it didn’t pay for him to carry the non-fad brands.
I ended up getting my work shoes out of a semi trailer at the Water Tunnel 2 site in Astoria, Queens. Good source for other inexpensive work clothes also.

Please do not get the impression that BLM is supported by most black folk.

I know that. I just wanted to point out the utter stupidity of BLM and liberals in general.

I dont know what a “white company” is, but imagine for a moment of those companies BLM decided to boycott, said FU and stopped providing goods and services to non-white people. (whatever that is).

Exactly - they burned them down and smashed them.

Agreed. Its like the NAACP calling for blacks to boycott of South Carolina... A state heavily populated with black people.

The Party elites somehow always make out so much better than the workers, don’t they?

Boycotting and looting are two different things.


But both mean patronizing a white business :)

Phil Knight is pretty White but you’ve been smoking hippie lettuce if you think black folk will ever give up Nike shoes.

How is this not racist? In fact, is this not the very definition of racism? Which is of course illegal in the USA. Or was.

I’m sure most white companies would love to have no black looters, shoplifters, or just all-around trouble makers in their stores.

Completely agree- there’s a shop here in town with a “Black Lives Matter” sign in the window. I will never step foot in it.

I also try not to spend $0.01 at Amazon

Whites should do a month-long boycott of companies who use black models in their commercials.

“Does that include the places being looted too?”

Well, boycotting is more civilized than violence. The blacks effectively used boycotting in the ‘50s didn’t they?

Boycotting is within the law.
