    Went to a website, got assaulted with BLM trash.

    I logged onto a website called "Adafruit" which sells all kinds of cool electronic stuff. This time, I got treated to page after page of sickening liberal bullshit (the usual... BLM, white racism, cops are bad, it's all our fault, model citizen George Floyd was a victim, imprison the cops, etc, ad-nauseaum).

    Probably not surprising... they're in New York City.

    So I clicked "contact us" and sent them this:

    I logged onto this site to browse for specific electronic items, not to read about a bunch of white people groveling to the terrorist organization BLM. If Adafruit supports rioting, looting, burning, assault and murder, then it is a company that is 180 degrees out of alignment with normal American values. Therefore, I feel as though supporting Adafruit also, by extension, supports BLM and this is something that as a law abiding American I simply cannot do. I'm sorry, but I'll now be shopping elsewhere.
    I'm getting sick to death of all this crap. Stopping now, since I'm primed to say stuff that I'd have to ban myself for. If you smell smoke, it's probably me... about to detonate. Later brothers.

    Lol the model citizen who held a gun to a pregnant womans belly as he robbed her? That model citizen? Also porn star.

    A civil war is coming if the left keeps up their anarchism. Normal people are fed up with the lawlessness.

    Were they POP UP ads? Or were they part of the page's design?

    There isn't much on adafruit you can't get on ebay cheaper. What are you working on? I've been using Arduino's and Pi's for years.
    When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, and he looks you crooked in the eye and he asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yessir, the check is in the mail." ----- Jack Burton 1986

    It was one of 5 ads that scrolled horizontally across the top of the page. It is a part of the pages design and not a pop-up.

    I wasn't planning to buy anything (they are overpriced). I was checking to see if a board on Amazon was a ripoff clone of an Adafruit board (it looked familiar).
