I noticed that Ben and Jerry's ice cream is on that list. Check this out. Sorry guys its kind of long winded but I think its worth the read.

Sometimes it's HARD to solve a murder case.....
Sometimes, there are no witnesses. Sometimes, detectives and forensic scientists spend months, even years, piecing together the evidence.
Sometimes it's VERY easy.....

In 1981, Mumia Jamal was a Philadelphia Taxi Driver named Wesley Cook. Cook stood in the middle of a city street, in front of several witnesses, and shot Officer Daniel Faulkner in the back. The witnesses watched as Cook stood over the fallen officer and emptied his gun into the officer's face. Police arrived within moments, and Mumia was caught red-handed at the scene, the murder weapon still in his possession. The witnesses watched as the cold blooded killer was arrested and loaded into the back of a police wagon.

Cook was transported to the hospital, since the heroic officer had managed to draw his weapon and return fire before dying. Cook bragged to emergency room staff that he had shot the "pig", and that he hoped he was dead.

The murder weapon was registered to Wesley Cook himself. Ballistics test proved that this gun, recovered at the scene, fired the bullets that killed Officer Faulkner. The bullet removed from Wesly Cook was proven to have come from Officer Faulkner's service weapon.

The trial was called a "Prosecutor's Dream". Mumia had mountains of evidence and a parade of eyewitnesses stacked against him. There has never been even the slightest doubt that Mumia murdered Officer Faulkner. Not then, not now.

Ben Cohen schemes to "increase profits" by supporting a cop-killer.
Ben Cohen, co-founder of Ben & Jerry's, co-authored a book titled "Ben & Jerry's Double-Dip : How to Run a Values-Led Business and Make Money, Too ". This book explains "How your commitment to worthy social causes will result in unprecedented customer and employee loyalty -- and increased profit".
Ben Cohen believes that it's good for business to become involved in social causes. One of the social causes he has chosen to become involved in is the "Free Mumia Jamal" movement. He signed his name to a petition which appeared in a full page ad in the New York Times. The words "Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream" appeared on the petition, next to his name. When people became angry about Cohen's actions, he posted this statement on the B&J web site;

"Scores of American legal scholars, including former United States Attorney General Ramsey Clark, have reviewed the trial of Mumia Abu-Jamal and concluded that he did not receive a fair trial. In the interests of justice, these scholars have called for a new and impartial trial. I am in no position to judge his guilt or innocence. For all I know, a new and impartial trial could find him guilty again. But the American system of justice must be fair and must be perceived as fair. So I have supported the former U.S. Attorney General in calling for a new trial to properly establish Jamal's guilt or innocence. I take this position as a concerned citizen, not as an officer of any company or organization."

Ben Cohen cites former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark as one of the "legal scholars" who believes that Mumia did not receive a fair trial. Ramsey Clark also believes that the USA should be tried for war crimes against Iraq. Does Cohen have any of his own reasons for thinking Mumia's trial was not fair? He seems to be saying that he has he formed his opinion simply because he believes some people who call themselves "scholars".

All of the many judges who have reviewed this case over the past two decades have unanimously decided that Ramsey Clark and his "scholar" friends are wrong.

Cohen's claim that he took this position as a concerned citizen, not as an officer of any company, is an outright lie. On the "Free Mumia" petition, he signed his name right next to the words "Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream", and we know from his book that commitment to "worthy social causes" such as Mumia Jamal is done with the intent of creating "customer and employee loyalty -- and increased profits".

Ben Cohen needs to learn that supporting cop killers is no way to make money.

Ramsey Clark WAS a flake as US AG, IS a flake now and will always be a FLAKE.
Sounds like he and Ben Cohen would make good bedfellows.

[kar98mauser]

[CKxx]

[Cheapskate]

the list may be what it is, but I know several people who have come to 'our' side in the last few years. it's refreshing.

[Spetsnaz-GRU]

the list may be what it is, but I know several people who have come to 'our' side in the last few years. it's refreshing.In fact, companies get bought out and their attitude toward the gun community changes, usually each time a company changes ownership and/or leadership...

[recon]

Interesting!

not that supporting "gun control" is acceptable for any reason, BUT-

i get the feeling that some of these sponsors may not, nessisarily, support gun control.

these people "support gun control" because they gave money to the mill.mom march, a gun controll group...

this group is made up primarily, of middle aged housewives and mothers.

look at the list, ice cream, toy stores, yougart, hallmark and sara lee... companys whose main consuner supporters are...... middle aged housewives and mothers.

a VERY good marketing tecnique.

im NOT saying that these companies should not be called out for this, im just saying they might not be as "anti" as you think.










or maybe they are, what do i know????
