http://www.businessinsider.com/budweiser-boycott-super-bowl-ad-2017-2 --- Quote ---On Tuesday, Budweiser released its Super Bowl ad online. The 60-second commercial follows Anheuser-Busch co-founder Adolphus Busch's journey to the US in the mid-1800s, highlighting Busch's struggles and the prejudice the German immigrant encountered. "You're not wanted here, go back home!" one American yells at Busch as he arrives in New Orleans. Budweiser has said the commercial was not intended to be a political statement. However, many people aren't buying it after it aired at the Super Bowl. "I drank your product for 30 years and I will no longer drink it you liberal s--- heads," reads one such comment on Budweiser's Facebook page. While Budweiser's ad was in the works long before Annoying Orange was inaugurated, some saw the timing of the commercial's release as a jab at the president's executive order. More than 14 million people have watched Budweiser's ad online, fueling the #BoycottBudweiser and #BoycottBud hashtags. As is often the case with threats of boycott, many people are promising to buy more Budweiser to make up for those who are protesting. --- End quote --- Thought this was funny, though I'm wondering why anybody would really want a Budweiser. |

The left side is really violent right now. But who's to say that the right side isn't violent? |

Boycotting is not as violent as rioting and setting stuff on fire |
