David Hogg might not want to hold his breath while waiting for that $1 million donation from Publix.

Two weeks after the 18-year-old student activist called on Publix to atone for supporting a pro-National Rifle Association candidate by sending $1 million to the Parkland victims’ fund, the grocery chain has shown no indication that it plans to do so.

Publix spokeswoman Nicole Krauss confirmed that the company has not donated to the crowdfunding account, but highlighted the firm’s public-service activities at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, scene of the deadly Feb. 14 shooting.

“While we have not contributed to the GoFundMe account, on April 3, more than 65 Publix associates, including our CEO & President [Todd Jones], spent our Publix Serves Day at Marjory Stoneman Douglas,” said Ms. Krauss in an email.

“We worked on several projects that were funded by Publix, including an herb/vegetable garden for the culinary program, beautification of common grounds and sodding, and landscaping a new yoga/meditation area for the students,” she said. “We hoped our efforts would help the students find comfort in each other and a peaceful place to reflect and meditate.”

Publix landed in the center of the gun-control debate last month over its reported $670,000 in campaign contributions over three years to Florida agriculture commissioner Adam Putnam, a staunch NRA supporter who’s running for the GOP gubernatorial nomination. The company suspended its political giving shortly before Mr. Hogg led a May 25 supermarket “die-in,” but has not asked Mr. Putnam to return the campaign checks or contributed to the GoFundMe account, which reached $8.8 million on Wednesday.

"Pervert wannabe tyrants don't need a "mommy" to tuck them in, just a homo "partner..."

[publius911]

I’m thinking more perhaps more opportunistic. He hopes this is just the beginning of a long and rewarding career as a shakedown artist.

He must have eye problems.
He's the wrong color.

Maybe he ought to sue its parents for making him white...

This little shit must have attended the "Al Sharpton/Jesse Jackson Institute for Advanced Pseudogrievance Based Extortion".

I want twiggy arms Hogg to wrestle that Kent State gun chick.
It should do a charity event. Whoever wins picks the charity. Publix could sponsor that.

Pay for view...
I'm in for 100 bucks...

Since I no longer do Starbucks, I can probably afford it.

[SoCal Pubbie]

I live in Mission Viejo. To my knowledge there are no Safeway stores anywhere in Sourhern California.

[Califreak]

Little thug.

[Red Badger]

Any Vons nearby?

Same company................

[T-Bone Texan]

Hogg admitted to bullying the shooter.

He is partly responsible for all those deaths.

[Boomer]

Hogg breath still waiting and waiting and waiting...

[SoCal Pubbie]

Yes, there are. Vons is a subsidiary of Alberstons, which which also owns Safeway. Albertsons in turn is owned by Cerberus. Nonetheless, there are no Safeway stores in Southern California, and there has been none here for some time.

[Red Badger]

We had Albertsons here until they were bought by CVS, then they closed our store and Publix took over the building.

[Boomer]

Hogg breath wouldn't stand a chance against a real woman!

[Celtic Conservative]

Wish in one hand, and sh*t in the other hand , Hogg. See which one fills up first.
