This leads me to start my official boycott on Urban Outiftters. Who's with me?

"Every time I see a young hipster carrying an Urban Outfitters shopping bag I find myself seething. Want to know Why?
The owner of Urban Outfitters, the $700,000,000 profit making 'anti-establishment' clothier and lifestyle purveyor, is a top donor to Rick Santorum, a particularly nasty Republican senator from Pennsylvania. In fact, over the last 10 years Richard Hayne and his family have donated more than $30,000 dollars to the GOP and Senator Santorum in particular. You know, Rick Santorum, the guy who equates homosexuality with bestiality. The Rick Santorum who urged the Supreme Court to uphold Texas' anti-sodomy law. The Rick Santorum who introduced a bill in the Senate that would erase the line between church and state.
Oh I know, I know, it's just so hard to stop shopping at Urban Outfitters because they're soooooo hip and ironic, just like you, and the Urban Outfitter's T-shirt that the supposedly 'progressive' magazine was pimping this month sure was cute. But do you really want the money you spend on your tasteless baby tee that says, 'everyone loves a jewish girl' with dollar signs around it, going to support that Santorum asshole? Or, geez, what about that HILARIOUS 'voting is for old people' tee. Yeah, I definitely support discouraging voting by young people AND the far-right Republican agenda.
So put your money where your mouth is, hipsters, and stop shopping at this fart vortex of a wannabe trendoid store. There are a thousand other hip stores in this city so there's no reason to spend your money at a place that supports politicians that would like to jail you and half your friends.

Wayyy ahead of you on the boycotting Urban Outfitters, though I didn't know this. Mostly I didn't shop their because they sell shitty products for way too much money.
