Hey, @innoutburger! I don't want a heaping helping of right-wing politics served up with my fries! Stupid mistake as you're just moving up toward Portland. Buh-bye. No longer a fan! - #innout#BoycottInNOut - In-N-Out Burger chain donates $25,000 to GOP https://t.co/zsJ6H3B2sC
Yes. Everyone please #BoycottInNOut. You know, that company that has had bible verses printed on its paper products literally forever. Lets do it around lunch time, preferably. Right when I plan on getting there to order a Double Double. With extra onions and spread, obviously.
Ok we have gone just crazy with boycotts. If a business wants to support either party why does it matter? I dont go out to eat and check what political party they are. I go because of the food or atmosphere. #BoycottInNOut is just stupid!! Its a hamburger!!
