Another Facebook group but this one calls to SUPPORT BP

More than 500-thousand people are part of a facebook group that wants to boycott every product under BP's brand.  But get this – there's also a Facebook group called "support BP."  Its numbers - as you would expect - about 500 or so.  Its members say supporting BP is in all of our best interests.  Don Lemon interviews a member of the Facebook group as well as a woman who grew up in Alabama who says a bankrupt BP can help no one.
