A brand new generation of hippies.

 

I wish that some of these states would call these companies' bluffs.  I guarantee if North Carolina banned the sale of all NBA merchandise and the airing of NBA games on television the NBA's bottom line would be hurt a lot more than North Carolina's.  A strong stand needs to be made against companies that attempt to strong arm politics.  It's bad enough with the lobbyists influencing politics without this new load of crap.

 

Kind of like when Arizona was passing SB 1070 and California was threatening a boycott against everything Arizona.  Then Arizona turned around and said that's fine, but we'll just stop exporting our 40 billion kilowatt hours of electricity from APS to southern California... Essentially blacking out San Diego and Los Angeles and returning them to the stone age.  The diatribe from California ended shortly thereafter.
