Momentum is building on social media to boycott the Black Friday sales in order to hit corporate America "where it hurts" over the fatal police shooting of Michael Brown.
The Justice for Michael Brown Leadership Coalition is organising the 'No Justice, No Profit' boycott campaign on Thanksgiving Day (27 November), through to Sunday. Black Friday is traditionally the day that kicks off the Christmas buying period with retailers across America offering big discounts to jump-start the busiest shopping days of the year.

... sales of items to be put on layaway will be way down.
Why pay for anything on Black Friday when you can loot to get what you want.
“Been Caught Stealing” - Jane’s Addiction
I’ve been caught stealing;
once when I was 5...
I enjoy stealing.
It’s just as simple as that.
Well, it’s just a simple fact.
When I want something,
I don’t want to pay for it.
I walk right through the door.
Walk right through the door.
Hey all right! If I get by, it’s mine.
Mine all mine!
My girl, she’s one too.
She’ll go and get her a skirt.
Stick it under her shirt.
She grabbed a razor for me.
And she did it just like that.
When she wants something,
She don’t want to pay for it.
She walk right through the door.
Walk right through the door.
Hey all right! If I get by, it’s mine.
Mine all mine!
We sat around the pile.
We sat and laughed.
We sat and laughed and
Waved it into the air!
And we did it just like that.
When we want something,
We don’t want to pay for it.
We walk right through the door.
Walk right through the door.
Hey, all right! If I get by, it’s mine,
Mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine...
I’m confused does that mean that they will give up looting for Thanksgiving?
Go ahead and boycott!
Online sales will skyrocket, from the safety of the home.
OTOH, any black people found lurking about, just might be met by a law-abiding ccw American.
of course, all of this is just academic conjecture.
I’m so sure everyone is going to listen to them and not shop for their family and friends /s
The looters don’t need Black Friday; they just break a storefront window and take what they want. Therefore, their cry to boycott Black Friday is hysterically funny, coming from them.
Early bird gets the worm.....
The second mouse gets the cheese.

That can only improve the experience for everyone else.
