Alyssa Milano Leads Charge for Boycott of Amazon, Apple, and FedEx over NRA
brietbart ^

Posted on 03/01/2018 6:59:57 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Earlier the Charmed star tweeted to Amazon’s official Twitter handle: “Do you want to be known as a Pro-NRA company!? Because If you don’t cancel NRA TV, that’s exactly what you run the risk of becoming.”

Milano’s calls come after Marjory Stone High School student David Hogg called for his Twitter followers to boycott Amazon and FedEx entirely. The high school senior has also said he will not return to school until gun-control legislation is passed.

Boycott skeptics have noted that calling on Amazon and Apple’s streaming services to stop carrying NRA TV content amounts to censorship.

Amazon has stayed completely silent, not responding to myriad tweets calling on them to stop carrying NRA TV.

FedEx was cheered by NRA supporters when the shipping company came out on Monday and said it would not cave to pressure and ax discounts for NRA members.

While saying it disagreed with “assault rifles being in the hands of civilians,” FedEx said it would not deny service or discriminate against any legal entity regardless of their policy positions or political views.

I miss the days when she was just a nice pair of tits on my TV.


That was a long time ago. Almost 30 years ago! LOL.

I think she’s doing it for the attention. She is getting a ton of media coverage for her political activism.

Hi Alyssa,
When they come confiscate all my guns, will you please arrange to let some of your “security” come and protect me so I don’t have to hide in fear. I know of some very large black thugs that live around me who have criminal records, and without a gun they will have no fear of tearing down my door and taking/doing whatever they please.
Thanks
ps Oh, the cops? I realize they will come to my house after I’m dead in order to take care of the paper work. That part I’m not too much worried about. It’s the dead part that bothers me.

And I bet you don't know that the whole reason the NRA was created in the first place was to teach black people how to defend themselves against democrats.

She knows. But she wants them aborted, not terrorized by cross burning Democrats. The latter is only temporary. The former is permanent, a solution to the problem of inequality in society. A final one.

Ms. Milano, if you boycott Apple how will you use the internet? So no more Facebook, Tweets, email, press announcements from you? Great!

Most people on the internet don't use Apple. They don't have the market share lead for any of their products.

Alyssa Milano is just the way Hollywood likes 'em: weapons-grade stupid and attached to a pair of epic knockers.

Isn't Alyssa the one who is pictured in the "my eyes are up here" meme?

If her bodyguards have guns, she better fire them unless she's a hypocrite (which she is). I wonder if David Hogg is her, since I never seen them together...

BTW, did David Hogg go to school yesterday?

I don’t shop on Amazon, either. However, on time something I bought at what seemed to be a legit business shipped my order in an Amazon box and with Amazon tape. They have lost my business forever.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE boycott FedEx and Apple, enough to cause a drop in stock prices, so I can increase my holdings of both.
