My toilet paper makes me sad (Georgia-Pacific, Koch brothers)

Today I was in Costco. As I entered the papergoods area a demonstration woman approached me about a sale on Northern triple ply quilted bathroom tissue.
It's my brand and I strongly support a soft 3 ply, but that's not my point.
The demonstration woman went on to show me on the packaging that Georgia Pacific donates money to the Susan G Komen foundation.
I stopped in my tracks and said " I wish you hadn't told me that. The Susan G Komen Foundation funds Planned Parenthood and Planned Parenthood ( or Planned Barrenhood) is the largest provider of abortions in the United States. I can no longer use my favorite brand of tissue or purchase anything else from Georgia Pacific because I will not allow my money to fund abortion."
She looked at me in disbelief.
Normally I am not outspoken, but I get such a punch in my gut when I am confronted by backdoor funding of something as hideous as a the murder of an inconvenient child that my mouth tends to run away from my brain.
Maybe I gave her something to think about or more likely she thinks that I am a nutcase.
I just wanted you to be informed so you can make the decision on your own if you want to support Planned Parenthood abortions by purchasing Georgia Pacific product.

In all fairness [if it's like the COSTCOs here], that demonstrator probably was an 80 y/o granny who was subsidizing her social security by working a few hours so she could afford her Part B insurance. If she *protested* the PC of the product manufacturer, she'd lose her job, IMO.
Usually these people know *nothing* about the product and even less about the manufacturer.
Have you thought about who COSTCO supports? hmmmmmmmmmmmm?

“Interesting, now Georgia Pacific (Koch brothers) is being boycotted by the left and the right.”
I believe (but am not 100% positive) that the Koch brothers are heavily involved in Tea Party.

It doesn’t matter, their donations free up money that goes to abortions.

How exactly do you try out toilet paper in the middle of Cosco? The mental images are awful.
