Black Lives Matter plans to boycott Black Friday, claiming that a way to spread awareness of their movement is to hurt the US economy. The group also wants "Black Friday" to be renamed "BlackLivesMatterFriday."
"Let's hit America where it hurts!" reads BLM's website. "I challenge you not to spend one dime on "Black Friday". Let's black it out, and make sure not one black face is littering the local mall!"
The group is using the catchphrase "Hands Up, Don't Shop:"
A Facebook group devoted to the boycott exclaims that "we must slow or stop the american economy around retail Goods [sic]."
It further reads, "Black Friday has been shown as a day were people put shopping before people lives and we are not ok with that especially when hundreds of unarmed people of color are gunned down by police every year with no charges filed against the police officers --we are taking black friday back from the nation and permanently renaming it #BLACKLIVESMATTERFRIDAY."
They have also posted images like these:
Black Lives Matters' website is also calling for a boycott during the entire Christmas and Holiday Season:
Michaels Arts and Crafts is having great sales tonight.
#BlackPaintMatters
LOL!
These guys are the gift that keeps on giving!
Not only have they replaced the NAACP, Rainbow Push, and Sharpton as the face of the leftist black grievance posse, they have tanked the image of all of them, while making people finally wake up to what these groups were really all about!
I’m hoping they go full BLM at the malls tomorrow. There will be a million cellphones to document their BS and further alienate them.
*They* say they’re gonna boycott but I bet the WalMarts will still be flat screen battle zones.
:)
I thank God for this miracle. Now, I’m considering shopping tomorrow.
Thug lives don’t matter
“Ficcatelo su per il culo” in Italian that means:
“SHOVE IT UP YOUR ASS” and that is what everyone should do to them rotten scum!!!
Boycott Black Friday. Just like the boycott of Florida they threatened over the outcome of the Trayvon “0bama’s son” Martin case. Hell, by now many of them are down here either feeding the Rat or dong the Miami pub crawl and puking their guts out all over South Beach. Not to mention the holy hell they’re gonna raise during spring break at Panama City and Ft Walton Beach. Oh, and I like the use of the noose in that poster for the extra special effect. How profound! /s
The door busters come with baseball bats and broken glass!
They won’t get near as good of deals as those that shopped on #blacklootingday.
I hear the pharmaceuticals are still in good supply around Ferguson.
Yawn. Reminds me of thirty five years ago when sullen blacks went around wishing each other a “Black Christmas”.
There.
Fixed it.
Uh-huh. Anyway, the MST3K Turkey Day marathon is running on YouTube right now!
HA ha hahaa!
True, dat.
They hate to much maybe?
blacks are almost all drains on society.
I certainly hope they all stay out the all the malls, stores, gas stations, you name it. It would make things so much nicer. Best yet, they should all pack up and leave the country altogether.
Maybe.
But they’re fast approaching the “Point and laugh” stage of their “cause”.
:)
It will be interesting to see how many BLM’ers will be beaten and or killed on Black Friday it has become a bit of a tradition, I think they fail to understand the intent of the day, soon they will insist that on BF everything for BLM’ers will be free or “maybe” limited to as much as they can carry.
