Pro-pot lobby rips Kellogg Co. for dropping Phelps

NEW YORK (AP) - Snap, crackle ... pot?

Bursting with indignation, legions of marijuana advocates are urging a boycott of Kellogg Co., including all of its popular munchies, for deciding to cut ties with Olympic hero Michael Phelps after he was photographed with a pot pipe.

The leader of one of the biggest legalize-pot organizations, the Marijuana Policy Project, called Kellogg's action "hypocritical and disgusting," and said he'd never seen his membership so angry, with more than 2,300 of them signing an online petition.

*snip*

Even the Marijuana Policy Project's petition noted the difficulty inherent in its call-to-arms:

"Given all these facts and the total disregard for your customer base ... we the undersigned plan to BOYCOTT your products. And we're serious. Even though the Pop Tarts thing will be HARD."


Oh my.  2300 fewer people buying Kelloggs products.  That's gonna bring 'em down for sure this time.   :whatever:

I am quite confident that within a few short days the burnt out bong suckers will forget what petition they signed, why they signed it, and who thry were boycotting.

Especially when they get the munchies and run out of Cheetos.  Those Frosted Flakes and Sugar Smacks sure do look tempting in a time like that.
