I would think it would be obvious to speak to the Store manager, or find an online source to go higher up the chain.

That's exactly what I was referring to. Boycott? Fine, but there's no need to go off on the lowest level workers. It just makes the person who is ranting look like the ass he is. Go off on the manager, fine. Tell off the customer service or marketing people, knock yourself out. Maybe it will make a difference collectively.
But going off on a retail employee in a local store is pretty much the definition of being a coward. Lashing out at someone who cannot even argue with you without risk of being fired. How brave!

I would simply, and I have done this, tell the manager, that you are not going to buy from their store until something is done by the company directly to the studio or Colbert personally, perhaps a statement by the Company in the news or on their online presence condemning his behavior, and that continuing behavior will necessitate removal of advertising dollars. Thank them for listening, and leave. They may blow you off, but if your serious, tell your neighbors, post it on Facebook to all your friends, and then stop shopping there.

****Do you think those low wage workers in the local store make marketing decisions? At best, you might make them aware of what the company they work for supports.****

****there’s no need to go off on the lowest level workers.****

Two strawman arguments in a row. Congratulations.

ALL interactions with others in the marketplace, and the marketplace of ideas can be conducted with a positive outcome for conservatives because the message conservatives bring to witness is fundamentally positive. No need to “go off” on anyone.

Where do you conclude that from what was presented here?
