A couple of years ago, they opened a few stores in Dallas. All our California refugees were quite pleased. With all the lines and stuff, it looked a bit like the second coming. I think this boycott will be a failure, here anyway.

Really ?
How did you fit so many lies and misinformation into such a short post?

1. The article you cited, said people are THREATENING to do it, not actually doing it.
2. to my point, they only cited 3 twitter posts, that does not equate to "all liberals", or even "most liberals"
3. The source is a local NBC affiliate in LA. I have no way to know what their political affiliation is, but it is not an NBC source, it is a local station, who is an NBC affiliate. (VERY Different)


The source you quoted though, they did a pretty good job, so it looks like they are like NBC. Fair. They reported a story, that some people (assumed by you to be libs, and probably so) are threatening to boycott.

It was you who took it and ran with it to fit your agenda. They did not say that it is some sort of widespread movement among a significant number of left-leaning people. YOu made that stuff up, or interpreted the news to fit your agenda.

And finally, we need to know: Is the mainstream media reliable or not. Either they are, and you live with it, or they are not, and you quit cherry-picking their stories that fit your agenda. Make a stand man!!!!

Yeah it's like YETI & NFL -- most on the left and right won't be bothered to boycott.

I suspect it won't make much of a dent in the lines though -- lol.

Please liberals .. resist and don’t support those evil Republicans that run in n out and pay good wages to their employees and deliver the freshest product and best customer service in the industry at an affordable price ..

Do you guys realize how ridiculous and petty this stuff makes you look ?

Another day another liberal boycott ..

Many may argue that In-N-Out Burger has the most loyal customers. However, many of them are reportedly boycotting the burger chain after it donated $25,000 to the California Republican Party.
According to a public filing on the California Secretary of State’s website, In-N-Out made the multi-thousand dollar donation Monday.

One Twitter user tweeted, "This really bums me out because I’m a regular customer... BUT I cannot spent money with a company that supports the current GOP! #BoycottInNOut."

I like to think I can agree to disagree with people and all is well, but for some reason these people really make my blood boil. They are trying to silence people if they think differently. This will have an effect on companies that want to donate to the party of their choice. I’m starting to actively hate these activist types.

Yeah but lets talk about liberals not being tolerant!
Not to mention the Starbucks boycott over...whatever it is. Red cups?

It's still a local family owned and run business. They could close down tomorrow and the owners will still be extremely wealthy and live happily ever after. The only ones that would be hurt are their employees and people that love those yummy burgers.

Even if trump came out on an In n Out ad, no matter what side your on your gonna crave that freshness.

Even if Obama was endorsed, Trumpers just won't resist either. In n Out flavor is new bipartisan..

In n Out is just too awesome to boycott..
I don’t see too many “Trumpers” doing this stuff. Don’t act like it’s equal.
