The Levis Boycott
A side issue:
I've always preferred Wrangler Brand -- They wore better then Levi's Jeans dB "Larry Caldwell" wrote in message ... Some of you may have been refusing to buy Levis products for years because of their support for the gun control nuts, but Levis Strauss has moved into a whole new area offensive to farmers and ranchers. Now they are giving large donations to P.E.T.A. While this may not be surprising coming out of a San Francisco based clothing company, it directly harms all ranchers, farmers and hunters in the country. We sure do buy a lot of blue jeans. In the future, don't buy Levis, and tell the owners of the farm supply and outdoor stores why you aren't buying them. If their retail outlets start vanishing, maybe the company will get the message. ------------------- From Darla Solomon, Outdoor Arizona magazine (an Arizona hunting/fishing magazine similar to "Texas Outdoors"): "Levis Strauss has made a donation close to the million dollar mark to P.E.T.A." "Consumer Relations Specialist for Levis Strauss, Shawn Rossiter told me last week that The employees and the family owned company of Levis Strauss made a "considerable donation" to P.E.T.A., per the request of an employee who passed away family, she also informed me that several employees of Levis Strauss support P.E.T.A. and receive matching donations from the parent company of Levis Strauss." "When I asked Ms. Rossiter if Levis Strauss had any plans to support wildlife conservation now or in the future, she replied "You can see that wildlife conservation is not part of the focus of the Levis Strauss Foundation" and "wildlife conservation is not something we would consider supporting."
