David Hogg Calls for Boycott of 15 Financial Firms Over Investment in Gun Manufacturers

Gun control activist David Hogg on Tuesday called for the boycott of at least 15 financial firms because of their investments in gun manufacturers.

Hogg, a 18-year-old student who survived the February mass shooting at Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla., used his Twitter platform to push for the boycott of 15 financial firms, specifically the Vanguard Group and and BlackRock.

"@blackrock and @Vanguard_Group are two of the biggest investors in gun manufacturers; if you use them, feel free to let them know. Thanks " Hogg tweeted. "#BoycottVanguard #BoycottBlackrock."

Hogg then tweeted out a list of 15 financial firms, instructing his followers to "feel free to tag these companies." While the tweet does not say which gun manufacturers the financial institutions have investments in or a source for the data, the screenshots appear to show the number of shares the firms have in the gun manufacturers.

Hogg needs to get a life. Wish he would grow up. I'm tired of hearing him.

I wonder what gun makers that make guns and other weaponry for our military contracts think of this little twerp, and the bankers that finance these companies as well?

As long as he is paid well to continue this stunt, we will be inundated by his BS. Best to just ignore him....

I’d like to buy a gun from one of the manufacturers he’s got a problem with, then shoot him in the head with it.
Yeah. I said it.

Another Obama. No one wants to report facts that this idiot graduated in 2015 from a California High School. Just like the Obama fiasco his picture is in the yearbook.

Shoot him in the knee first. Use a couple more rounds to work your way up.
Make sure you do, though.

That would be something to cheer.
