Someone has to take a stand and I have no problem with their decision. The liberal activities of big companies should not be ignored. They deserve to be questioned and challenged (including stockholder meetings).

I have no disagreement with you. What I'm asking, is FOTF simply sabre rattling by moving from a bank that supports something they disagree with to another bank that does the same thing, but with maybe a lower profile. Or are they moving to a bank that does not support something FOTF disagrees with.

I seem to remember serveral years ago that Wal-Mart had a large fanfare and promotional coverage when the announced they were discontinuing carrying rap music due to lyric content, when they continued to carry mags such as Cosmo and other "provacative" content? And it wasn't too much later that the rap music returned to the shelves.

Is FOTF essentially doing the same thing with their bank move?
