Have you seen this in the media? A boycott of all major stores on this coming Friday. The People's Union USA is a grassroots organization that says it has no political affiliation but just wants "fairness, economic justice and real systemic change." It was founded by a man, John Schwarz, from Queens, New York. I have added an article about it below.
What are your thoughts?

Truly something that should be supported so customers don't get exploited, i hope it all goes well.

The real loons out there will eat that up, but it's not realistic for most people.

I disagree. I am waiting to get my groceries and others can do the same. It is a statement that needs to be made.
