Yeah, OK. Fuck BP

"For 40 days after a piece of equipment critical to the refinery’s operation broke down, a total of 538,000 pounds of toxic chemicals, including the carcinogen benzene, poured out of the refinery."

I don't care whether their record is better or worse than others in the industry, and I don't care if boycotting "only hurts the local owner" - I'm not buying so much as a fucking candy bar from a BP location anymore.
