Well Trump has given us boycotts and marches on Washington again! (Links below.) Just like in the 60’s.

Maybe long hair on men and the peace sign will come back as well?

I think I will get a few boycott bumper stickers. Maybe Boycott Hobby Lobby and Boycott L.L.Bean. The only problem is I do not own a Subaru. Can multiple boycott bumper stickers go on any car? Or must it be a Subaru? 😃  
Boycott of businesses which support Trump…

Not L.L. Bean. It was a single granddaughter.  
The company has a policy of not getting involved in politics.

Trump is giving us?  
So there has never been any other marches on DC against any other president??

I’m glad to hear that SOMEONE out there even does protest! Some one cares enough to do SOMETHING.

Too fricking much apathy in the world of ours…too fricking much

The Tea Party movement marched in protest against Obama. There were marches against Bush over Iraq. There was a march against the other Bush over Iraq. There were marches against Reagan over women’s rights, gay rights, American policies in Central America and South Africa, and nuclear proliferation.

There were marches in Washington over various political issues when Clinton was President but none of them seem to have been primarily directed against him.

I, for one, welcome the rebirth of protest rock.

Yeah, I’m not about to penalize the company for the actions of one board member, even if she was dumb enough to go on Fox News to justify herself (and simultaneously promote the new Bean boot).
