If she's smart, she takes the Steeler's merchandise down and puts the Penguins gear out front.

What's this?


People burning their Saints merch. People calling the ticket office to see about season ticket refunds. I'm hearing different stories that either they are being inundated with angry calls and that they're starting to panic, or that it really isn't that bad. A local liquor distributor pulling all Saints adverts from their routes, that Krewe in Slidell uninviting Saints players from their parade. Stuff like that.

I didn't know if this was a local kind of phenomenon or if it was more widespread.

Not really, but I do remember people gleeful that a bakery went under.

People are more interested in the angry at the Kneelers angle of this story.

By defending this you are saying that if I have a problem with something Trump says that it would be perfectly acceptable for me to call and yell at the girl that takes the MAGA hat orders

I'm sure this has happened honestly. For instance, it's not the Chikfila manager's or individual branch owner's fault that the CEO of Chikfila has certain stances on gay marriage. But that didn't stop gays and SJWs from picketing in front of Chikfilas across the country or demanding to have locations shut down in areas. You know each Chikifila location is privately owned by a regular joe like you and me right? And people actively boycotted to have these businesses shut down because of comments some rich guy in Atlanta made.

So yes it may suck for the business owner, and I truly do feel sorry for them; however, this is what happens when a business entity takes action, inaction, or makes statements that upset their client base.

You need me to explain to you how making angry phone calls and comments to an independent business owner, or even better going to that business for no reason other than to "vent your anger" is pathetic?

Yeah, I'll pass on that one.

No it's the one where we SLOWLY explain to Progs that we told you this would happen, to please be careful because you were about to step in a hornets nest and you mumbled some Prog platitude that contained the terms " Baw" and " racist " and cheered the NFL on.

All we are saying to you now is please observe the immutable laws of human behavior. If you hate your audience, they will no longer be your audience. If your political creed is based on fomenting division and disharmony don't be surprised if you get it. Deal with it.

Yeah. If you're upset with the Steelers, stop buying Steelers merch. Why harass some poor woman running a store?

Again, the majority of the posts in this thread are praising this woman for being a small business owner.

Why lie?

People are discussing the affiliation of the product she sells and the consequences. No one here is cheering her personal demise, nor or they hoping the govt sues her into oblivion.

I have no doubt he gets that. It is just a classic deflection knowing this was correct so there can be another angle to shame the domestic enemy.

Y'all can "boycott" whoever the frick you want. I've been boycotting Steelers gear since birth so you clowns are way behind me on that one.

Screaming at some random lady about it and cheering that her business may be hurting is kind of Poliboardish.

This is turning out to be a definitive scenario re the whole Dem Party playbook of Race politics. They've stepped in it big time, and will likely be the end of their Race-baiting political mo. Or they can continue, and go down.

This sends a message to a lot of Corporate Interests who think siding with the Dem Progs is even possible, given the current anti-American dynamic.

Trump has slain the dragon!
