That’s right, yogadon is asking you guys to give up all the resistance to W-Mart (“Where’s WalMart,” Aug. 11). I call on all the hippies and yuppies and puppies, the vegans and veggie, yogies and bogies, the mommies and babies, and yes the rednecks and no-necks and bookworms and carnivores!!
I really, really, really want “them” to build “IT.”… (Their motto is, “If we build it, then they must come.”) I ask you guys … must we come? Maybe we will have an opportunity as a community to demonstrate otherwise. What a litmus test for Humboldt ashram.
We don’t have to put our money where their mouth is. We can break the “spell of consumerism.” It can begin here. … If not here, then where? What is everybody so afraid of?
We will band together. … We will take pictures and post them of any of you who shop there. No problem if you are proud of it, right?
Are ya in? Let’s turn this into something bigger than W-Mart!

Ah, so Donnie wants to harass people, well then, the game is afoot!

“The game is afoot”?
Poor, little Anon-r-Mouse has delusions of grandeur.
Ten years later, and Ray’s Market remains void of customers.
It doesn’t appear to matter in our New Gilded Age that allows limitless capital accumulation at public expense.
(Feeling a little frustrated lately Joel?).
Don, you’re a whack job. You want to take photos of people who shop at a place you disapprove of? Post them where? Kill the Walmart shoppers.com? Take your meds man, you’re losing it. Joel, if you agree with guy you are as nuts as he is.
Don’t shop Walmart, won’t shop Walmart…great idea yogadon…
Sorry, Cinderella, and not that I approve of it, but there’s already an excellent place for Don to post photos.
Joel, you should move back to San Diego, scum like you doesn’t belong in Humboldt County.
I’m sorry that there wasn’t enough opportunity for unskilled labor in Humboldt County for Anon-r-Mouse, but I hope that he’s warmly welcomed in his new town.
