their distribution agreements with Adams are going to be cancelled, the american lounge at the charlotte Douglas had already pulled it from the bar last night and there are multiple posts from bars dumping the beer down the drain. There is not going to be any mountain candy ipa for you to drink.
this is not cancel culture, this is called consequences.

I don’t agree with boycotting based on this. He is no longer involved in the business. It is his wife’s business now. No need to hurt her and all the people she employs who did absolutely nothing wrong.
 
If my wife and I ran a business together, and I did something truly horrible, and as a result she kicked me out of the business and pretty much out of her life, I would hope people would not make her suffer more than she already is from the pain I inflicted.

Say what you will about cancel culture or boycotting, but if you support certain businesses and flaunt it in my face with an “eff you! You all took this too far! I’ll eat Chick-fil-A and shop at Hobby Lobby all day long just to shove it in your face” attitude, then we can’t be friends.

lol, keywest has absolutely rocketed to the front of the "worst poster on the board" race in recent days.

posting history is just an avalanche of nonsense.

Lol at kicked out of the business. As long as they are married he owns 50%. Not that that will mean much after everything comes crashing down
 
Hate when folks go all "internet Rambo" and say how they would have done whatever manly deed in the face of any particular event...

But that said, I have an 18yr old and 14yr old daughters, and if this had happened to either of them, well, that fucker is lucky that the cops got him. Hope he gets assfucked all the way to the gates of Hell for the remainder of his earthly existence

It appears that they will not be married much longer (obviously the marriage can’t legally end overnight), but even so it doesn’t necessarily work that way with regard to him owning 50% while married (while the business is marital property there are steps that can be taken to dispose of a spouse’s interest). But even if that were the case, that is certainly not the spouse’s fault.

There are two primary reasons for boycotting a company:
1. To bring about change when a company is doing something that you believe to be wrong, with the intended result being a change in the company’s practices that corrects the wrong.
2. To punish a company for doing something wrong. There is a point to that when the company knowingly does something wrong with the company’s approval. But if an individual owner does something on his or her own that the remaining ownership is initially unaware of and would not approve of, and remaining ownership promptly addresses it once discovered, what is the point of boycotting? In fact, you would be punishing the company (or remaining ownership) for trying to do the right or appropriate thing.

Here is what I think is an unsolvable problem with "Ignore." If you hit "Ignore" on a poster, then all you eliminate are posts made by that poster. But, pretty frequently someone will quote the ignored post when responding to it. So you still see what the ignored poster wrote. If you hit "Super Ignore" on a poster, then you eliminate all the posts by that poster and all posts that quote that poster. And sometimes, when someone quotes a poster that I had on ignore, they will go on and make relevant points that are beyond the mere refutation of a stupid post. And I regretted missing those relevant points. So, what I do now is just skip past what certain idiot posters write, quickly skim any posts that quote the idiot poster, and try to determine if there is anything in such posts that say anything beyond, "This quoted poster is an idiot."

Off with his head if found guilty. Cancel culture is nothing more than a holier than thou mental illness, but anyones right.

What does this have to do with cancel culture?

Wanting the man to have due process then be punished to the full extent of the law isn't cancel culture.

On ignore, you don't see what the poster wrote, just that someone quoted it with the option to see the ignored content. I find that the best option between ignore and super ignore, where you correctly point out that you miss the entire conversation.

Occasionally a response to an ignored post/poster will be interesting enough that I'll choose to see the ignored content. Usually the ignored post was still bad, but sometimes this allows me not to miss a post so terrible that I would have been sad had I not seen it.
 
His wife doesn’t deserve death threats, but she probably does deserve to have her business fail. When you go into business with a partner (whether spouse or not) you assume a certain level or risk that your partner does something to cause your business to collapse. In this case, her husband and business partner is a child rapist and she will suffer the consequences which may include bankruptcy. There will be a lot of collateral damage here.

To me cancel culture is when people boycott a company or person because they deem them as an entity that doesn't align with their viewpoint....unlawful or not.

I don’t follow. This essentially boils down to “If you go into business with a partner, then you deserve to have it fail.”

Also, I don’t think many people go into business with someone thinking that that person may one day be charged with statutory rape. Let alone, going into a marriage with that in the radar. When we go into business with people, if they have not shown signs of doing something morally reprehensible, then there is no reason to think they they will do something morally reprehensible in the future.

I don't know that the wife "deserves" to have her business fail. Barring some incredible knowledge she had of her husband, I'd guess most folks don't enter or stay in a marriage where they believe their spouse likely (or even capable) of SA'ing a 13 year old.

But I do think that the business failing is an inevitable consequence of the husband's actions. The brand is now tainted by his actions and a lot of folks very well may decide they don't want to risk him profiting from their purchases, no matter if the wife says he's been divested of his shares of the company. I'll feel bad for her and her kids that this is another repercussion of his actions, though.
