Actually, the Kirk already boycotts many businesses in Moscow. They are just 
less honest about it, couching it in terms of "buy from your Kirk brothers 
and sisters" rather than the direct "not one cent of my money goes through 
tithes to Doug Wilson's pocket" espoused by the "Intoleristas". And Jim 
Fisher, along with many others, still hasn't figured out the boycott isn't 
about religion. It's still all about Doug and his nasty homeboys.
