#1 Whoops--posted this before I finished my comments and added my name--forgot there is no "preview"!

Anyway, I can understand if not every company has the will or the means to pay their employees who are called up their full salaries or the difference between their normal salaries and their military salaries. However, terminating their employment altogether is the biggest slap in the face I've seen yet. Furthermore it's a violation of federal law.

#6 Anom:

The point of the boycott would be to let them know why we're buying somewhere else.
