Revised Boycott List

fides quarens intellectum

I can only think of a couple that I know of for sure: Chick-fil-a, Mardel's, and Hobby Lobby. Guess it helps when you are a company started by evangelical Christians!

We had to switch to a local bank because I can't think of a large back who is not on that list; we also dine at smaller, local-only restaurants because we know they don't have the funds to even get into political donations like that.

I have a question: Does anyone know if the pro-lifer's even pursue getting money from large companies? I mean, it's easy enough to just say, "Oh, they donate to PP, they're bad" but I'm guessing that PP doesn't send out people asking for donations, and emphasize that they kill babies. It's probably all, "We help empower women" and stuff like that. So, have pro-life organizations tried to get funding/donations from large companies? I'm just curious if anyone knows anything. I mean, obviously it's not GOOD that these people give to PP, but are they even approached with other options?

Is it possible to download the list some place? I see where to order a hard copy on their site but I don't want that.

No, they make you order it, because they don't want it on the internet for the pro-choicers to get ahold of easily and start using it against them, since they have put all the work into compiling it.

Yeah, I read their page explaining why the list isn't freely available, but it could still be available for download (although the thing about pro-choicers using it against them isn't entirely applicable, that was for free hard copies in which they incur a shipping cost). Anyway, victory for the pro-choicers. This is probably fringe information that few pro-lifers will ever see and that the PP supporting companies need not worry about. At least if it was freely available and disseminated online it would have a chance of going viral among pro-lifers. 'Tis unfortunate is all.

I was considering ordering a copy of this list until I saw that it costs $22 almost. There is no way I can afford that. I am on a very limited budget and there is simply no way that I could afford to donate that amount of money just to get a list of companies that may not even be in my area.
