When protest ldrs detoured into Apple & Macy's, it ceased to be about Brown & Garner and revealed it was really anti capitalism/commie march

Bam.

And a simple question for the slacktivist protesters:

#EricGarner Demonstrators perform "die-in" at Macy's. Shopper overheard saying, "what did Macy's have to do with it?" pic.twitter.com/8RIfmmFcWt

And what about this?

@sgallman @michellemalkin Seriously. How many low wage employees just lost commissions since the shoppers avoided the store today?
