The whole divestment strategy is incredibly suspect. Who in their right mind, would be willing to forgo money, and add years to their retirement, for something like this? At least fossil fuels I can understand, as they're related to global warming, the health of our planet, and the future of our species. But guns?
I think you're missing the point; divestment is perhaps part of a larger strategy. Re: what they're doing though, I think it's main aim is to help people be in tune with where their money's going.
Also, did you even bother to check the site out? Not sure how into finance you are, but it's a pretty decent all-purpose scrapper, if you don't dig the gun thing, just leave them out. Pretty clear that there are tons of alternatives, with comparable returns and no guns, to choose from however.
I'm wondering if this is in any way related to all the fossil fuel stuff going on with Leo, Gore, etc. They've made a lot of money (would be nice if us 'normals' could too!), but am not seeing the same kinda connect for guns
