"Again, the comparison to gun grabbers boycotting stores that sell ammunition holds. We know their eventual goal is to ban all ammunition sales by law. If they can force major retailers to stop selling it, they eliminate a potential opponent of the legal ban, and perhaps gain an ally."

They may have a 'goal' of banning ammunition sales by law, but I doubt that will happen. Nevertheless, they have the right to boycott and try to recruit others to that action. When such things occur, those who oppose the goals of those boycotting are free to organize an 'anti-boycott'. Economic pressure can work both ways.

There are places where it is a very real possibility.

Or mock and criticize the motivations of the proposed boycotters.
