it will be among those who want to follow a violent lifestyle. It has no bearing on the vast numbers who don't follow that "style." What divesting of investments has to do with any of that is a complete mystery. Maybe Blomberg is following the oil company divestment strategy, but there is at least a real constituency in that case, not a protracted, corrosive culture war. Blomberg is an authoritarian prohibitionist.

I note Snoop's holding of a narrative-like sign, sort of like what Bob Dylan did years ago. But Dylan is gun collector. Maybe folks will not invest in his latest album.
