David Hogg Pushing Boycott of Mutual Fund Companies Invested in Gun Manufacturer Stocks
Breitbart ^ | 17 Apr 2018 | AWR Hawkins

Gun control proponent David Hogg is pushing a boycott of mutual fund companies invested in firearm manufacturer stocks.

This follows his boycott of Fox News’s Laura Ingraham, which resulted in her initially losing advertisers and apologizing to him only to have her viewership jump 20 percent.

Now Hogg is targeting BlackRock, Vanguard Group, and a few other mutual fund companies for holding gun manufacturers’ stock in their mutual funds.

Hogg tweeted:

This little commie will begin to fade quickly starting Friday after his next “walkout” flops.

I wondered what must his parents think.

I have heard that his father is an FBI agent.

If I am wrong someone correct me.

But if he is, what does that say about his son's motives?

David Hogg....who dat?

Some little ghey-boi in Florida. The communists in Big Media drool over him. In a few months, he'll come out as Anderson Pooper's catamite.

This petty tyrant and his other “student leader” comrades are coming up with all these ideas for their “student led” movement on their own? Sure. I believe that like I believe Obama got into Harvard Law on merit.

"I’m waiting for news that Hogg verbally bullied the shooter, Nikolas Cruz."

or maybe he was a handler. He manipulated him and pushed his grievances to make him explode.

He seems like the type to bully, until someone gets back in his face.

Doubt this kid has much knowledge about investments - though his benefactors are probably Soros/Bloomberg types giving him cause to do so.

The story I want to see long after his 15 minutes have faded will talk about who his puppet masters were, who secretly funded him and what direction and scripting he was given.

A bridge too far there, putzboy.

Only a few hardcore crazies are going to sabotage their own retirement savings by doing this.

Yes, keep it up Hogg!

All the way to the midterms!


Speaking of midterms...

When's the last time Hogg saw the inside of a classroom?

If he did, it would be quite something if Cruz escaped from jail and caught up with Attention Hogg for some payback. Nothing to lose at this point.

He's blowing smoke. Leftists are down with the struggle - unless it hits them in the wallet, then it's whoa-up time. Denizens of the left like their diversified investments too. All that boycott talk has the potential of putting some portfolios in a bind and that's not gonna fly. There's already been some cautionary grumbling thrown his way about it. Guess his chokechain needs a hard tug.
