So they have eliminated 
themselves from a certain market segment 
and made it necessary for others to 
identify them as "the pretty flower 
in the corner of the garden with the 
poisonous petals".  Not a bright move 
it would seem on the surface for their 
business.  Oh well... no lack of dumb 
even among the stars of the business.

Lots of us have lawyers (at least if 
we intend to stay in business).  Lots of 
other companies are inciting mob 
mentality for public consumption but 
are also using lawyers and other unsavory 
applications of their money.  We can 
avoid that part of the discussion.   
The behavior to acquire is the one that 
enables others with a concern to easily 
and quickly discover precisely what the 
use of the flower in the corner entails.
