BP boycot!

Unread postby darknessfood » 22 Jun 2010, 22:32

Howdy people,

BP is f*cking things up. Every day a few million gallons of oil are leaking out. BP can't do/won't do much about it and causes MAYOR damage to nature, fish/birds are dying, and the oil spreads everywhere. It't time for people to stand up, show balls, and boycot all what breathes BP. So if you have a heart, a soul, and care about this planet, you will spread the word and boycot BP.

Together we stand!

don't be ridiculous, this could've happened to any other oil company
it's like boycotting an air company when one of their planes crash

When's the last time a plane crash did as much damage as this oil spill seems to be doing?

At around the same time analogies all of a sudden needed to be 100% the same as the situation you're comparing them to.


But really, cutting back on your use of gasoline overall would be a better way to spend your energy ( ;) ), other oil companies are in no way better, they just where lucky enough that all their rig accidents didn't involve the blowout preventer.

I'm sure the owners and employees of all the locally-owned BP gas stations will thank you.

No doubt there will be repercussions for BP just as there were for Exxon after Valdez, and each one of you will have to determine for yourself what should be your course of action in that regard. Since the topic smells of politics, however, I am closing it.
