Filmmaker Michael Moore is calling for a boycott of Walgreens, after the pharmacy chain announced it would not sell abortion pills in 20 states. Walgreens’ decision came after receiving a letter from 20 Republican state attorneys general, threatening legal action if the company provided the abortion pill, mifepristone, to consumers across the U.S.
In response, Moore took to his website, characterizing Walgreens as a pharmacy chain that “stands with anti-abortion extremists against the rights of women.” He urged readers to boycott Walgreens and claimed that their “aggressive tactics” were based on the Comstock Act of 1873, which outlawed sending “obscene items” through the mail.
Moore posted on his website:
This decision by Walgreens to further cement women’s status as second-class citizens must be met forcefully by each and every one of us. Every day of our silence since last Thursday is another day of you and I enabling this bigotry and misogyny. Please join with me and others in a NATIONWIDE BOYCOTT OF WALGREENS. They must reverse their decision immediately.
Let Walgreens know you have stopped shopping there. Let the other pharmaceutical chains know you’ll do the same to them if they follow Walgreens’ lead. Picket your local Walgreens. Tell the White House to stand strong, and let your members of Congress know this is one of your top issues in deciding how you will vote next year.
Moore also criticized the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, calling the ruling a “legal whipping of women” and asserting that the Justices based their opinion on the “authoritarian religion” of Christianity. He called on his audience to make their voices heard by contacting local reproductive rights groups, picketing local Walgreens, and urging their representatives to take action.
Michael Moore, AKA Jabba the Hutt, should be more concerned that they might stop selling diet pills. This cements my preference for shopping at Walgreen’s. I’m boycotting Michael Moore.
It’s a shame Michael Moore’s mom didn’t believe in Abortion. We wouldn’ have to listen to this POS.
Michael Moore is a pig
How about We boycott all of Michael Moore’s and any other
pro-abortion actor or directors movies or TV shows.
Wish his mom got the pill.
Whatever happened to “it’s a private business and they can do whatever they want”. You know like the Left said about Twitter before Elon purchased Twitter!
THANK YOU LORD FOR OPENING BLIND EYES AND UNSTOPPING DEAF EARS TO SEE AND HEAR LIFE EVEN THE LIFE, THE WAY AND THE TRUTH IN YESHUA’S NAME AMEIN
Who the hell cares what Michael Moore says!!! He’s a complete disheveled idiot and always has been.
Does anyone even pay attention to Michael Moore any longer? Even Progressives seem to ignore Moore, more and more.
Well, I demand a national boycott of Michael Moore.
Walgreen’s … there are many things to worry about over the next 2 years: inflation, recession, treason by government official, a criminal running the WH, theft, lying, Soros funded DAs in many cities, however, the one thing you should not worry about are empty threats from an over-the-hill jackass bamed Michael Moore.
Who is Michael Moore?
If you’re going to sleep with Michael Moore to begin with, I’m thinking you have bigger problems than boycotting Walgreen’s.
What is the matter with leftists? They are going to boycott a company for obeying the law. This is so absurd. A person or company should obey the laws of the states they are living or doing business in. To penalize them for this is completely wrong and only leftists who are unlawful and idiots.
Mr. Moore should pay attention to his own business and keep his mouth shut on matters not concerning him.
