The story reads due to the recent Russian ban on all that is "gay", an American sydicated columnist has promted a protest in the US for all bars to dump their Russian vodka in support of the ban. So in a show of solidarity gay bars in New York and San Francisco (amongst others) began dumping their Russian vodka out in the streets. The most poular brand of Russian vodka is obviously Stoli and that's what is being targeted along with other brands.....
Here's the thiing, this is a bonehead move for a couple of reason one of which the article points out;
Number 1 is that the Stoli that is shipped to the US is distilled by a privately owned company in Luxembourg
Number 2 is the bars that are dumping this stuff out in the street (much to the delite of the alcoholic contingency of the homeless) have already purchased the vodka and they are pouring out their potenial profit, and purchsed inventory out in the street. There goes your liqour cost for the month!!!
