Did anyone hear about the lululemon murder in Bethesda in March in the U.S.A?

A lululemon worker beat her co-worker to death inside a lululemon store, crushed her skull and snapped her neck, and then faked a robbery. Very Sad for the victim That lulu store NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN FOREVER.

BOYCOTT LULU!~~!. Please don't waste your money on overpriced third world yoga clothes sold by crazy people. Lulu is not the small Candian company it once was. It's become an evil multi national yoga scam wear

@JessePinkmanYo ...I remember that..I live not to far from there...wow

This was noted in the CFTF in france which was created and documented by the government. People state that Landmark is effective and yet in the many years it has been operational and through the people who have taken it - However there is no peer-reviewed published research that demonstrates objectively any measurable results from LGATs including Landmark.

I also take issue with a group that takes a litigous approach to address others concerns rather than trying to address concerns.

[xianapple]

I had respect for Lululemon until I learned Chip Wilson belonged to the cult group Landmark Education which was banned from various countries, including France as it was classified as a dangerous cult. Awesome clothing, but I cannot in good faith shop at a place that is associated to such sketchy groups.

[cutevwbug]

@xianapple Landmark Education is not a cult. I have two close friends who took many classes from them and loved it. It is just a self improvement seminar sort of deal.

[xianapple]

@cutevwbug Yeah the other nations who happen to kick them out and in other cases like France who labelled them a dangerous cult are idiots? France has one of the most fair justice systems in the world. Sorry it is a cult...don't drink the kool aid.

[cutevwbug]

@xianapple Please document your sources. You seem to know a lot of info. Also, do you have any first hand knowledge of this "cult"?

[xianapple]

Essentially Landmark does not address it critics in any meaningfull manner - It tells them to shut up or face a lawsuit. This has been a repeated theme for Landmark, but thankfully fail in thesuits. In the case of the Rick Ross Lawsuit attempt, they withdrew after a petition to the court to make key internal information in Landmark public - Hallmarks of a group that has nothing to hide....not!

This is a LGAT group created by car salesmen with a high school diploma

[cutevwbug]

@xianapple  What is a LGAT?

lulu = sweatshops



[JessePinkmanYo]

Hope all of you like paying like $100.00 per pair of third world yoga crap wear. Seventy percent of their clothing is manufactured in third-world countries with factories in China, Taiwan, South Korea, South America, Israel, Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam.

you suck lululemon your corporate hypocrisy is sickening. way to uplift humanity with sweatshops in the third word nice job.

you make me sick Chip Wilson your marketing is evil and your manifesto reminds me of Hitler

[wootwootwoot32]

Funny how you criticize the guy anonymously on the internet. Can you tell me and the whole world what have you done recently?

[smokenfly514]

He needed to describe his business strategies more.

[smokenfly514]

@SellsWaterByARiver your wisdom goes far beyond your years

[stedyplotn]

@SellsWaterByARiver what do you mean

[icesnoop]

Love lulu! don't really like him but he knows his clothes

[TPasteProductions]

Really don't understand what's wrong with this he has built a company that is extremely successful and is built upon sound moral values. @EpicKreashinz you're telling him to go die? Why is that? and @Nyc3299 what's the deal?

[xianapple]

@TPasteProductions What's moral about employing workers in the third world under horrendous conditions? Search Lululemon + factory + suicides. Even by China's standards, workers at the Lululemon factories are treated pretty badly and hence why they were audited by the Chinese gov.

Lets not forget the lies Lululemon spreads about their clothing like the Seaweed shirts from 2008

horny bastard!

Woah. Chip wilson. The faggot that started all this bullshit. I think he has to kill himself, before many ALRF do it for him. When ALRF rises to power as the EZLN did, he'll be finished.

[cmarincat]

What a concept this man has built. He has some of the happier employees in the whole world. They have done this in a retail oriented organization. Retail is one of the lowest rated non-physically demanding jobs and yet Lululemon employees love Lulu. The mentality that stems from Lululemon is spreading throughout the communities Lululemon affects. This is definitely one way to improve health, happiness and quality of life. If only every company treated its people and customers like Lulu

[nyc3299]

What a dork. My vision of lululemon is crushed.

[laportama]

Some more comments:

1) I had just sold my company and was looking for something to do.

2) Endorphins are not the holy grail.

[laportama]

Meditiative sex and  --all forms of meditiative intercourse -- definitely affect how the world moves forward. To wit: peace of mind, living in the now. Happy mommies make happy babies.

Money, power, and prestige inevitably affect one's discernment and consitute the risk of earthly clamor.

Beware the man who believes his own press. See this month's FAST COMPANY magazine on this company. Sure a guru can sell clothing.

What percentage is the true cost of manufacture, etc. ?

[yogini326]

This is embarrassing to watch. I have to find a new place to buy my yoga clothing!

[OzeBoy25]

Chris just so doesn't get IT. He so couldn't answer the first guys question. He made himself look like a FOOL.
