I noticed my local Trader Joe's is selling Jamaica blue mountain coffee

Isn't there an active boycott on Jamaican products? I feel like I will be talking to the mgr before long. This is a very gay area.

100% Jamaican BM coffee is supposed to be verrrrrry pricey.

Same situation with Kona (Hawaiian) coffee.

mob murders with police acceptance and participation. Leaders jailed and threatened. if there wasn't a boycott we'd have to start one, but yes there is one. the reason you don't hear about it is lack of targets. TJ's is a vulnerable target
