2016 Postmortem

cross-posted at Dailykos
I live 6 states away, so unfortunately, I can't enjoy one of Scott's pizzas, but I called and asked them to send a large pepperoni to the local volunteer fire department. They had several, so I told them to pick one and call me back with the address.
The total came to $14.22.
You guys, the kid on the phone told me they ARE under attack and he thanked me profusely for my business.
If you can, please call and order something from these folks. There are numerous Fire Departments in their delivery area, as well as police departments. Look up and see if there are any senior centers, YMCAs, Blood drive centers, etc.
The key is to support this man's business and I say we try to keep this up until the storm dies. Maybe a week or so.

(2,391 posts)But would there be a local Ronald McDonald House? Or a Children's Hospital? Not all of the kids could eat pizza, but some could, as well as their families and the staff.
Just a thought.

(19,458 posts)I think they could be easily overwhelmed with pizza orders, but donations to the foundation with a message of support would do wonders, too.

(1,788 posts)We can't let businesses have issues because they have an opinion. I don't see dems making a group effort to take out businesses that support Rmoney. I love the "Freedom" crowd....it's free if you think like me...doesn't that kinda go against the whole "FREEDOM" thing.
