Okay, we have all heard of the store closings during BBW, but I have never witnessed any. Tell us which stores you have seen closed during BBW and I will try and get the owners of those stores to come on this board and tell us exactly why they close during BBW. If you can get me the name of the store and exactly where it is located, I will do my best to get them on here and see if we can get them to stay open next year for us.

I didn't witness any store closings either. I did hear that the store owners whos stores were behind the Atlantic Beach entrance barricades were complaining about customers not having access to their stores. They said that if the barricades are up next year that they will close during that time period.

Kweisi Mfume over at the NAACP said for everyone to keep their black azz out of South Carolina and don't spend a nickel there. Something about the Confederate flag, people of color, oppression and such. Anyway, make sure you don't end up being a race traitor by going to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina over the Memorial Day weekend for Black Bike Week. www.blackbikeweek.net/ "Kweisi Mfume, NAACP President & CEO, said: "The NAACP rejects the Confederacy-of-the-mind- mentality of South Carolina's legislators who think that taking the flag from atop the Capitol but placing it on an illuminated, 30-foot flagpole directly in front of the Capitol is acceptable. The new placement is totally unacceptable, equally as offensive and grossly divisive. If people want to fly the Confederate flag, they should fly it on private property and not public grounds." The economic sanctions imposed by the NAACP against the South Carolina's tourism industry January 1, 2000 remain in effect. Last year the state's tourist industry lost over $100 million dollars as a result of the boycott, which persuaded lawmakers to remove the flag from inside the Capitol's chambers and from atop the dome." www.naacp.org/news/releases/confederateflag011201.shtml |

There are still plenty here. |
