Their constituents are the ones who keep these America haters in office. I don’t boycott Berkeley out of hate because that would make me the same as them, a reprehensible thought.

Yes, I do boycott them out of anger. I saw a Marine last week at a Naval hospital who was back from Iraq on crutches because his leg had been amputated. His wife and four small children were visiting him there. It angers me that people would slap him in the face with actions such as those Berkeley took and during a time of war nonetheless. He chose to willingly serve and protect our country. He deserves our nation’s respect. That Marine sacrificed his leg for our country, God Bless Him!!!

I figure Berkeley can go without my money supporting their city. That’s the “sacrifice” (VERY pale in comparison with what our Marines are doing for us daily) they’ll have to make for acting in such an amoral fashion. I boycott them because they deserve to be held accountable for their actions and money seems to be the only thing that gets through to these people.
