Companies pay attention when their bottom line looks to be at risk. Along with that, we could try to get actor Gene Hackman, currently earning big bucks as the commercial voiceover in TV ads for Lowe's, to back out of his deal with them and support the boycott. That would get immediate national media attention. Wonder if Hackman would do it? Surely he doesn't need the money at this stage of his career.
