one more thought....

about 30,000 conservatives representing many organizations marched at the Lincoln Memorial on a snowy blustery day in 2010. That counter demonstration scared the crap out of the Democrats.

The result was the beginning of the attack on Tea Party organizations and the end of the Republic. That gathering precipitated the attempts by the Federal Government to kill the Tea Party.

A long and loud hue and cry for the trial and public execution of Lois Lerner for crimes against the Republic will have a much greater effect then a boycott that has no visible indications of being.

A hue and cry for the imprisonment of all at the IRS that participated in those crimes will be more effective than a boycott

A hue and cry for the imprisonment of all the VA hospital managers will be better than a boycott

Of course, a boycott requires no effort and can be accomplished by those too lazy to really act.

Just watched a gag producing commercial from Macy’s. It would seem to me that a high end store would be a wise choice to boycott. They don’t cater to the food stamp crowd.

There’s a zillion targets to pick from. I would start with a target of much higher visibility than Chobani Yogurt - maybe walmart where many conservatives shop and few liberals would ever set foot in.

Although, targeting very small businesses seems to have paid off for the gays when they picked on small bakeries. Perhaps that’s a strategy worth considering as well. The difference in media reaction would have to be seriously considered.

Why not all the time? Simply stop doing business with the heathens forever!

Don’t really spend a whole lot of time shopping on the 4th.Maybe running to grocery store for things I forgot. There is one guy at the store I suspect is gay, but he is amiable and I don’t know what the owner’s point of view is.

Maybe you could get the current majority in both houses to write a “terse email.”

The GOP-e will have to run it by their masters at the US Chamber of Commerce to make sure it does not cut off the extra income.

You expecting a /s?
Hell no.

Bass turds are all bought and paid for.

If we throw in the towel, the liberals will have won. They want to dispirit us and hope that we constitutional, America loving conservatives either die or just go away.

Once these foolish companies like Amazon enter the political arena, they become an enemy. Eff them!

That’ll be hard to do. Most businesses have become advocates for leftist causes.

Chaining their doors after hours so they can’t open the next day. (Use heavy duty chains and high security padlocks that would require a K12 saw to cut) Use JB Weld in their door locks.

That is what I do. I just don’t patronize the place any more. I don’t necessarily call it a boycott. I just stop doing business with them.
