Readers React to Rolling Stone Cover of Accused Boston Bomber

Are you boycotting the latest issue of Rolling Stone?

By now, you’ve seen the cover. The July edition of Rolling Stone sports a self portrait of the accused Boston bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.

By now, you’ve seen the local reaction. Drug stores, like Maple Grove's CVS and Walgreens, say they will not carry the magazine, in a protest of sorts.

But we want to know: Will you, personally, protest the racey editorial decision? A Nashua Patch blogger said that he intends to boycott the “advertisers of Rolling Stone magazine.”

On Thursday, we asked Maple Grove residents what they thought about the magazine cover. Some Maple Grove Patch Facebook friends said they were "cool" with the decision to pull it from shelves. 

Do you have an opinion about the cover? Will you stop buying the magazine? Will you stop going to the stores that sell it?
