I notice that I've been looking at the labels more to see if what I'm buying comes from Florida and depending on the product I won't buy it.

I'm only like half assed boycotting lol. If it's something I really want....I just end up getting it anyways but I have put back a few items.
We aren't pop superstars bro we can't afford that lol!

I'm always boycotting something, I feel like.
You might not feel like you doing it is a big enough statement but every little bit helps/counts. Hurting them in their wallets is the only thing they will respond to when they see overall sales are down.

There has been a white boycott pending in California every since OJ Simpson was acquitted for murder.

Its totally asinine to boycott anything Florida just because their judicial system worked in a guys favor. He was acquitted because they could not prove beyond a reasonable doubt that he was guilty. I always find these boycotts absolutely ridiculous anyway. Anything Madonna gets behind is something I would avoid like the plague.

Let's punish hardworking Floridians for doing nothing but living in a state with laws they had very little to no influence in passing. God forbid if any one of your home states overturned Roe vs Wade because these slags would be calling for your throat to be slit for buying a locally grown apple.

I'm telling you... "The more you stir the shit, the more it stinks"! Lets just have some good old fashioned Riots in all of our major cities, that is exactly what they want. Don't let them play you.
