I've heard those anti-Ukrops arguments, too. I admire acting on principle, so I don't see why people are put off by what Ukrop's sells or doesn't sell (or the closed on Sunday thing, which is darned inconvenient).
There are other issues where their corporate behavior impacts the community - like, in theory I'm pro-union and Kroger is unionized but Ukrop's isn't, or conversely, Ukrop's local contributions - that I think should have more sway.
