I guess you dind't read the part of my where I said that I don't care where you buy gas.

Some people are genuinely uninformed...they think BP owns the stations or that if they go somewhere else they aren't buying BP gas. I think they deserve to know the truth.

You know the truth....good for you. You are boycotting knowing that it won't make a difference except to hurt your local BP station owners and employees. I find that to be particularly offensive. You don't care that you are still buying BP products and putting money in BP coffers....just so long as SOMEONE suffers you feel better.

Geesh....kick any puppies lately?

of course
I thought about it myself, but it is hurting the little guy that owns the station, plus they said BP sells unmarked, so there is no telling where you are still buying their gas
I still have a problem buying from EXXON and now I hear this news
so there you go
same crap different day

Theres something ' fishy' about this explosion .

Not to speak of the fact that our leaders didn't enforce regulations in case something like this happened .



WHO WILL GAIN ? FOLLOW THE MONEY .The answer my friend is blowing in the wind-mills or 'maybe' Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy ! .
Nothing fishy about it. It was blown up on purpose and the oil was intentionally left to drift to the coast to prove a point and serve an agenda. The proof will be in our doubled and tripled energy prices down the road. You wait and see.
