LET'S SHUT DOWN THE HATE!!!

[BobbyBoring]

Yesterday was the last straw for me. It's time to turn off, ONCE AND FOR ALL, all the BS from Faux and talk radio. I need help in organizing so I'm calling on you to help. We need to totally and completely boycott any and all businesses that advertise on Faux and your local radio stations that carry syndicated hate programs.

If Bobs BBQ advertises on WFUK, call Bob and tell him that neither you or anyone you know will by so much as a single rib until he pulls his ads. One or two people doing this won't have an impact, but if thousands of us across the country make our demands known, we have a chance to really make a difference. It's all about the money.

We talk so often about how powerless we are but we have REAL POWER. We just have to unleash it. Unless we start now, we're pretty much cooked. If idiots like the Tea Partiers can have such an impact, think of what we can do.

If you want to help, PM me or email [e-mail]

I have tons of ideas but I really suck at organizing!

1. Does that mean no more calling people we disagree with freepers or other names?

or talking about revolution and uprisings?

[valerief]

2. No. It means we stop talking about shooting them. Which we don't do anyway. nt

4. Of course not. Freepers aren't actually people!

5. We are witnessing an uprising by the extreme right.

So we can talk about that. But we don't advocate for uprisings ourselves. We try to stay calm and remember that most people don't want uprisings or violence. Most people want real justice and peace. And you cannot get that through uprisings or violence.

I absolutely agree with avoiding those who support the violent talk radio and TV -- especially Fox. I don't listen to the violent, hate talk radio shows, so I wouldn't know even who these people are other than Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh.

8. It appears

I also really suck at expressing my ideas. I'm calling on everyone to stop doing business with any who advertises on any radio station that airs Hannity, Beck, Limbaugh, etc. Same goes for TV.

Without advertisers stations can't operate. With out customers, businesses can't operate. Pull the purse strings~

[JDPriestly]

10. Problem is that I don't know who the advertisers are.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

12. No, it means YOU and YOUR PALS should SHUT THE FUCK UP.

You won't, of course. But one can always hope for a tombstone, troll.

3. Our country has no common purpose. It's depressing.

All we want to do is call out the other side.

9. Never did. See Federalst #10 for the details.

The latent causes of faction are thus sown in the nature of man; and we see them everywhere brought into different degrees of activity, according to the different circumstances of civil society. A zeal for different opinions concerning religion, concerning government, and many other points, as well of speculation as of practice; an attachment to different leaders ambitiously contending for pre-eminence and power; or to persons of other descriptions whose fortunes have been interesting to the human passions, have, in turn, divided mankind into parties, inflamed them with mutual animosity, and rendered them much more disposed to vex and oppress each other than to co-operate for their common good.

6. And if Bob's BBQ or doctor's waiting room, etc.

is airing Faux on their captive-audience TV -- same thing. I will not spend one penny there and will spread the word throughout my community.

7. Start by holding the radical regressives accountable and calling them out as the terrorist

enemies of liberty they are instead of "looking forward" and "seeking common ground".

You can't break them and continue to act as if their behaviors and policies are reasonable discourse.

11. Was looking online for a list

couldn't find any recent article (I'm sure there out there), but here's a start:

13. Handy!

(Relieved to see US Airways is not on that list! Whew!)

[nyrnyr1994]

15. I was glad to see MisdirectTV was on there

Just dumped them last year too.

16. I'm not going to spend my time watching Fox news and listening to "hate" radio programs..

in order to find out which businesses I ought to threaten to boycott if they don't pull their ads.

But I do give you credit for coming up with an interesting idea. One that others may join you in implementing.
