A Boycott is not symbolic, it's real and punitive to SD
"But protests and symbolic gestures arent enough -- we need to take the kind of action, nationally and locally, that changes the way the justice system sentences drivers who kill motorcyclists."
A Sturgis Boycot would cost the state in lost tax revenue. I don't see a boycott as symbolic when fancy sentence generator it has such an economic cost for SD.
I agree with your answer.
I think the complaints or actions, however, are insufficient; instead, we must act both locally and nationwide to alter the punishments given to motorists who kill motorcycle riders.
The province could lose tax money if Sturgis was boycotted. Whenever a protest costs Us so much money, I don't think of it as metaphorical.
