I will be curbing my spending on many of these based on how they chose to word their statements.
This seems the responsible course of action. As you say, basically every company made some statement. I personally have no issue with ones that put out standard statements of unity.
What needs to happen is a ranked list of companies from best to worst. The companies that put out the most divisive or antagonistic statements would go at the bottom, and would be the priority to boycott. Do you have any suggestions?

I thought some companies donated as well?

Oh, many donated. I also want to rank them by how much they donated, and who they donated to.
A company that donated to help local businesses or something would be fine, but a company that donated to the SPLC would be very important to boycott.
What are your thoughts on this? Would you be interested in helping out? We need more people willing to do research on this.

It seems donating is a bigger deal than just making a statement, was what I was getting at, I guess you were already thinking that too.
I can't commit to this project because I've got other higher priority stuff I'd be irresponsible to allow myself to get diverted from. But I don't like purchasing from companies who are supporting the looting and rioting and stuff.

No worries. Focus on what's important.
But I don't like purchasing from companies who are supporting the looting and rioting and stuff.
I'll be sure to let you know once the list is complete!
