29. You won't make me disagree with boycotts
RWers do it all the time. LWers do it all the time. It is a time tested method of expressing oneself. If you want to spout off your self righteous gloating on the opinion page, don't expect the people you are mocking to come flocking to your business. I have no problem with wingnuts boycotting to make the changes. They don't get much done doing this (they know that fixing ballot boxes is more effective) but if they want to do it, more power to them. Boycotting Sinclair was the right thing to do, and so was the "Stop Dr. Laura" campaign and the campaign to get ABC to air Ellen DeGeneris' coming out episode. Your little tactic of calling people "freepers" for boycotting this particular person isn't going to work.
