Boycott BP Solar.

I totally disagree with you Gary - it only hurts the shareholders - a good portion of which are right there in the US.

This calling for boycots I really disagree with in general as it is a green mafia tactic used to punish whoever they have decided is guilty of some infringement - imagined or real. I have no sympathy for those calling for vigilante justice. If there have been decisions that are criminal then let the law hang them.

The worse case would be to convice BP that they are totally screwed and have them walk off. Then all the big mouths from Obama on down would be in a real panic. The government can NOT fix this. Another oil company coming in would take time to get up to the point where BP is now.

The courts are the right venue for justice.

İ have no problem buying from Exxon or BP.

I would like to encourage people to not use BP Solar panels anymore. What they have done in the Gulf is so horrendous, there is no excuse, and we are going to be living with this for decades. It was not an honest mistake, there was clear negligence, all in the name of maximixing profits and minimizing safety.

Buying BP solar panels might be a bad investment anyway. Hopefully at some point they will go bankrupt, or at least their assests will be seized by the government to help pay back the communities who will be living with this. If anything like that happens, the warranty on your panels will be as good as gone, along with the scores of sea creatures who have already died and continue to die each day.

Boycott BP Solar... to protect your investment, and to know you're not supporting a horrible company who has created the largest environmental disaster in the history of our country.

There are plenty of other companies to buy solar panels from.
