Banks, Insurance companies, Auto makers, farmers that plant in areas where things do not grow, all get bailed out. The Oil and Gas industry gets no such sustenance.

Thanks for your boycott and lack of concern for anything but activism, and continuous persecution.

My family and I made it through that period., just like we made it through the downturn in 2006.

So you place the blame on a customer boycott instead of BP's negligence.
And I should forgo my rights and ideals for other's economic gain.

I don't support CFA because of their promotion record with gays, women and minorities.
I don't support BP because of their malfeasance with Deepwater.
A 'lack of concern' would be if I did not care how these corporations operate, and blindly patronized them without regard to my own ideals.
If you read that as activism, or somehow persecution, so be it.
