We need to get Viacom to not show it anywhere.Hallmark will be an easy boycott. Christmas is comming. If we start now, they'll take a huge hit if they're ignored this season. Hallmark is a great boycott target.

For those of us who are Second Amendment supporters, it would also be good to remember that Hallmark contributed $20,000 in the spring of 1999 to help defeat Proposition B, Missouri's Right To Carry ballot referendum. The money helped buy media airtime in the closing days of the campaign that was full of fear-mongering and downright untruths. The media blitz in Kansas City and St. Louis tipped the scales against us, along with the huge voter fraud in St. Louis.
Since Hallmark is a privately held company, there are no public stockholders who can apply pressure to them to get them to lighten up. Missouri conservatives who value freedom have been unhappy with Hallmark and have been boycotting them for almost five years now because of their ill-advised donation. Maybe with this national attention, the boycott can be much more effective now.
It's becoming more obvious that Hallmark is not the friend of conservatives who value freedom.
