David Hogg puts Publix in crosshairs, demands $1 million donation and anti-NRA pledge
The Washington Times ^ | 24 May 2018 | Victor Morton

David Hogg is trying to shake down Publix.

The public face of the gun control movement demanded $1 million Thursday from the Florida-based grocery chain in a tweet, just one day after calling for a “die-in” protest at its stores.

Publix is being targeted by Mr. Hogg for its support of Adam Putnam, a Republican gubernatorial candidate who is now the state’s agricultural commissioner. The Tampa Bay Times reported earlier this week that Publix had given $670,000 during the last three years to Putnam campaigns.

Mr. Hogg not only sought atonement money from the grocery chain in Thursday’s tweet, he also demanded a pledge of ideological fealty to the gun-control movement.

“I call on @Publix to donate double the money they gave to Putman [sic] to the Stoneman Douglas Victims fund, $1,000,000. And never support an A rated NRA politician again,” he wrote.

What he misses in physical presence he makes up in self-righteous anger. My kids call him triangle head and marvel at his lack of muscle development. He needs to take a gap year and spend it in the gym doing double sessions.

Hogg is an egomaniacal, raggedy-assed, Statist puke whose sorry carcass I’d GLADLY trade to Satan for the life of ANY of his classmates who died that day.

Time for an IRS audit of Hogg to find out how he’s been spending those charitable donos.

I was in Florida last week. I shopped at Publix three times. Spent a lot of money.

Take that, David Hagg!

After these tragedies happen you always seem to get a group of 6-8 people who suddenly spend way more time than they should have for protesting/interviews/etc for someone who would normally have work or school commitments. Some people may have some savings to take some time off work initially, but months later they still have cash to fly around the country, give interviews, etc. for their cause. Someone is funding that.
