Just ran across this article:
David Hogg calls for Blackrock, Vanguard Group boycotts
So, total bs of course. But, in his case I happen to have my IRA with Vanguard so blasted off this message this morning:
"Recently it has come to my attention that the young activist David Hogg has called for a boycott on, among others, Vanguard because of your involvement in supporting various firearms companies such as Smith & Wesson. Please note that I fully support the 2nd Amendment and firearms companies and their ability to go about their lawful business without interference from reprehensible characters who refer to people like me as murderers with 'blood on their hands'. So, please note, if you (Vanguard Group) accommodate that group's (wishes in any way!) I will immediately transfer my entire IRA account to another financial company that is more willing to stand up for their (and their customer's...) rights to do lawful business as they please.
Thank you and regards,"
There must be more of us who use Vanguard here... Throw them a little warning that we have as much financial influence as the Left.
