I don't think it's going to solve the problem. But I cannot give tax revenue (sales, hotel, Gas, restaurant(?)) to a government who would do this.

Yeah cause the governor= EVERYONE else in the state. :roll:    These kind of retarded "stands" end up "hurting" everyone else BUT their intended target more often than not.  Sorry man it's a game show that has zero to do with the politics here.

I too strongly disagree with the political shenanigans... but I wont miss the convention over it knowing how many of the cool people from this forum are going to be there.  Just be forwarned.. if the convo goes political im most definitely a lefty.

All these boycotts do is affect the "little people", reducing revenue from local businesses, etc.  This won't affect the governor or any other politician.  So because the goverment makes dumb decisions, your "cannot give tax revenue (sales, hotel, Gas, restaurant(?)) to a government who would do this" attitude only hurts the normal person..the government could care less.  Take it out on the people that did nothing wrong effectively.

Oh come on Guygin! Tell you what. I'll see if I can get Tom Morello from Rage to join us.  :P That way everything we do will be a big middle finger to those pricks trying to rid their citizens of workers' rights. He's probably still there in Madison protesting.

But seriously. Come on Guy. You know you wanna. :wink:

@Guyjin: Fine. Boycott WI. Buy your gas in Minnesota, pack in sandwiches, sleep at the IL state park, but whatever you do just bring a sign to protest while you're at the MGC. If you're this vehement about the issue; as a native Wisconsinite I expect that you will not only go but be taking part in at least one of the protests with my home state and all of the union employees (cops, firefighters, DOT workers, Ironworkers, Assemblers, teachers, etc.) who are seeing their contracts eviscerated. If you're really that appalled, please do something about it and make a difference.

... if you do happen to grace the fair state of cheeseland with your presence; I'll see you there with my union card around my neck, a sign, and a Milwaukee Brewers hat. And I'll buy you a beer, as long as it's brewed locally. Maybe we can discuss the finer points of Xanadu or RTYPE while standing up for the Middle Class.

Tom Morello from Rage to join us.  :P

He was there last week.

But you gave tax revenue to Gee Dub's bullshit, right?

Boycotting the con won't do anything to help the matter dude,  like rave said, bring a sign and we'll flip off a couple righty's!!  But more importantly, do some OBEYing!!!
