Measure 2 isn't an opinion.  It is a repressive law that affects people
directly, not just their own opinion.

Boycotting is not censorship.  I am very selective where my money
goes, on moral grounds......not to punish people.  I cannot give money
to oppressors.  Guess it would be comparable to me giving money to
the Japanese Gov. during WW II.
