I'm curious why the big push to involve government as a solution?
If a majority of people don't support the business it will not make money and be closed down. If a majority support the business then why would the government be involved (there's no safety issue except fattening food, and from what I've seen fattening food is pretty common around here [with the asterisk that it's good tasting which McD's is not lol]).
I'm all for a community coming together and boycotting/not using a business it feels doesn't fit with the community but to dictate by government decree what one does with personal property while engaged in legal business is not the principles the country was built on [ignoring the lack of those principles that made HI part of the country], IMO.
