People *you* know may not have boycotted, but a great many people did. Or are you suggesting that the owners were lying when they told the Issaquah Reporter that their seventeen-year-old daughter was belittled and verbally abused by a local resident over her parents having the gall to buy the market from the previous owners? Or perhaps you're insinuating that I'm lying?

They saw a fifty percent drop in patronage the first day after they took over. That says an awful lot about what the area thought about the new owners.

Hell, the other person who commented on this article thinks it's unfair or immoral or wrong that the owner didn't just blanketly let everyone keep their jobs without interviewing them. That isn't how things work in the real world, and the ignorance of the community came through pretty clearly in the case of this market.

It's just pathetic.
