Anthony Grigore is a Democrat. But as he waited Thursday at an In-N-Out Burger in El Segundo for his meal, Grigore made it clear party loyalty would only go so far.

The wife and I will make an effort to eat at least once at an In-and-Out on our next trip. No locations are  close to where we live.
Last January we ate at one for the first time in Tucson. Good burger, mediocre french fries.
Nevertheless, boycotts are stupid.
What advocates of boycotts fail to realize is that if you boycott some brand, you're probably hurting people who work there who have the same politics as you do.
When the idiot libs boycott In-And-Out, they're taking money away from many libs who undoubtedly work at those places.
