Aren't most BP stations in high-traffic areas?
Advertisements [?]
BP has gas stations all over this country, and most gas stations are
located on busy, visible corners with constant traffic flow.

In our town of 50,000, there is a BP at the center of town--in one
of the busiest, well-traveled intersections in town.

Boy, that would really make a statement if a few of us dressed up
as oil slicks and stood out in front of our BP station (on the public
sidewalk of course).

How do you dress up as an oil slick, you ask? You cover yourself, from
head to toe--in black garbage bags. After you reach the protest spot,
you take a bottle of Hershey's syrup and squirt it all over the garbage
bags. Several people linked together could create a fairly impressive
"oil slick."

The "oil slick" could carry signs that say, "This oil slick brought to you
by BP, who paid our politicians for deregulation" or "Kill the planet? Who
cares, we made billions last quarter."

Oh, the options are endless.

So many BP stations, so many opportunities.
