OK, now it's extortion, others have referred to it as 'economic terrorism,' but when we conservatives boycott a business, we refer to it simply as 'bad publicity' or 'free market forces at work.' Whatever.

The family went to a business and asked for a refund they were not entitled to. When the business didn't hand them $1200 in cash, they went to the press to harass the business, until the business paid the money. That is the difference between extortion and boycott.

According to the post before yours, we were both wrong about the totality of the circumstances if the information posted there is correct.
