BP gas stations see drop in sales

The Liberal media has made a concerted effort to point out how BP does not own the local BP gas stations and that the recent drop in sales at these stations doesn't really affect BP.

While I understand this, the reason I have skipped stopping at BP stations is because it is the only recourse I have for voicing my displeasure with BP. My hope is that these individual stations put pressure back on BP for their lack of sales. I want to send a message to the oil industry that those companies who take unnecessary risks will face some consequences when those gambles go bad.

I apologize to the local owners who bare the burden of BP's mistakes but I believe that making a point to the oil industry outweighs the 8%-12% drop in sales many BP stations are seeing.
