It has been clearly shown that the public WILL boycott egregious offenders.
In south central Los Angeles the public sometimes burns a business to the ground when they feel offended, but that doesn't make it right. But people aren't the same everywhere. It really depends on the neighborhood. In your neighborhood they might shoot "gougers", so the "gougers" will come and sell their products in my neighborhood.
Frankly, I'd rather live in my neighborhood.
Ha, ha, ha, to boycott is to burn or to shoot? Pretty feeble.
