I actually have no problem with a company saying “no more political contributions”.

As long as it is NO contributions.

If they gave this kid his ransom, then F Publix.

I say that as a kid who grew up in south Florida. I worked at Publix for years as a teenager. When I went to Georgia Tech, I HATED the grocery stores available. Then Publix came to GA in the late 90s and I would go out of my way to go there.

But if they gave this kid his $1m ransom, I will go to my Kroger every day (I want to puke). If it is a simple pledge to stay out of politics, I’m cool. Most companies should.

They’ve contributed pretty much to both sides......
