susie,

as the shop owner, a small business owner (aka contributor to the economy), native OC resident i am all for alternative ways to black friday (ie. local spending, trade, making your items…).
we are not rebelling spending but ALLOWING people to do something different, even for those who CANNOT afford SCP, etc…
relax and do something different for a day…if you actually take the time to know us, you would realize that our store and staff are serious proponents of supporting a local economy.
i would much rather have someone make something from scratch than battle their way in a line at Wal-mart where the $ leaves our community.

Hate to break it to you “Let Obama handle it because that is what he does??? He has out spent all the presidents in less than a year. He has already spent a trillion dollars more than Bushes first year and its hasn’t even been a years yet. He is acting like a high school student with his first credit card. He has the force of will to do what has to be done? are you high??? He can say the ecomomy is better until he is blue in the face but it worse and getting worse.

Keep drinking the kool-aid.

You need to sit back and relax. I dont see how you think one person or another would not lie to you. Who are you anyway? A nobody, a nothing. Let Obama, handle it because thats what he does. You think someone else could do a better job? What did the last president do? Only 8 months into being president, two planes hit a couple of towers. Obama, has been on cleanup duty on two wars and the economy. And you think that there is someone who could do a better job? please. The only one I know that might do a better job, is the one and only governor of California. He has the force of will to do what has to be done. Health care reform has to happen. So does changes to the economy.
ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER for president!!!!

That’s right! Buy nothing on black Friday and then you can be a part of the economy failing.

People need to appreciate that the economy is driven by people buying stuff. If you buy something then someone else will have a job making, moving and selling that thing.

So if you want to damage America and help the enemies of this country win a victory for Radical Islam, then by all means, don’t buy anything on Black Friday, or any other time for that matter. Then they win and we will have not done anything to fight for our freedoms and hopes as a free nation.

Congratulations.

Why don’t they manage the bison like a ranch and harvest the meat? Use the profits to strengthen the herd and environment in which they live?

Bison makes me sick. Does everyone out there know that logicisourfriend and aceofspades are one in the same, glued at the hip, same DNA – comprende?

Yes friend I did know that! Nice catch though. The question is why does aceofspades want us all to think he is a chick? Maybe that is on his santa wish list this Xmas? At any rate logic/ace we have your number – YET AGAIN!
