    She suggested and TRU accepted--so they created "the solution" through validating her by corporate mandate. Why do you persist in giving the vendor a pass?

    I don't agree with her. I also don't care for the toy or watch the show. But she's exercising her rights as a customer/citizen. She may be "guilty" of poor judgment or self-aggrandizement, but that's not the issue.

    She issued a dictate and TRU bowed to it--shame on them IMO.

      Looks like the scalpers are already profiting on this. I just saw an auction with "BANNED FROM STORES!" displayed prominently in the title. Knowing how things work in this country these days, I should have had the foresight to clean out the shelves when I had a chance.

        They definitely share the blame, but she is just as wrong.

            Aaron Paul is having fun with this:

              Awesome. I hope the dumb broad and her pack of braying morons gets SERVED.

              I hope she knows deep down inside how badly she truly failed, when a pair of fictional meth dealers are better people than she is.

                Easy, I may not agree with her beliefs but I'm not sure I would go as far as to attack her character or vilify this person.

                  Don't worry, it was all explained in another thread:

                  Meth dealers are way better people than the average housewife. I learn all sorts of things here these days...

                    Not all Meth Dealers. I specified the fictional ones.

                    But Brian asked me to go easy on her.

                    He didn't take away my choice in the matter, but I am certain there would be unstated caveats if I continued along that line.

                    Doesn't change the way I feel about her, and I DO truly believe what I said, but I'll try to be more civil in expressing my utter contempt for her. And TRU to a much lesser extent.

                    Please don't think you can now dogpile me, or that means I won't defend myself or my position because he asked me to ease up. I'm sticking to my guns. This affects all adult collectors whether you believe it or not, or whatever side you choose.
