Sorry, but I don't purchase their products. Ben & Jerry's supports the Mumia Abu Jamal defense fund. For those who don't know him, he was convicted of murdering Philadelphia Police officer Daniel Faulkner. On appeal, he was convicted a second time.
During a traffic stop in 1981, Officer Faulkner was shot in the back and fell to the ground. He returned fire and hit Jamal once, who despite being hit, stood over the fallen officer and fired numerous more bullets, one striking him in the face and killing him. Jamal was seriously wounded and was unable to flee. He was found at the scene by other responding officers in possession of a gun that fired the shots that killed the officer. He was taken to the hospital where several medical personnel heard him admit that he killed the officer. Several eyewitnesses to the shooting identified Jamal as the killer, INCLUDING HIS OWN BROTHER who was present when it happened. The bullet removed from his body was identified as coming from the officer's gun. He was convicted and won an appeal. A second jury convicted him again because of the obvious and overwhelming evidence. He was sentenced to death, and has successfully had his sentence converted to a life sentence. Jamal claims that his arrest and prosecution were politically and racially motivated, and he has garnered the support of politicians, actors and actresses, and numerous businesses (one of them being Ben & Jerry's), and has hoodwinked them into believing he is innocent.
I'm sorry for taking a simple and innocent question in P&S, and giving such explicit details about this, but I feel very strongly about it. As such, I do not give my money to Ben & Jerry's or any of the many other companies who have bought into Jamal's sob story.
