I'd pull all PepsiCo products from store shelves. That includes Quaker, Lay's, Doritos, and I'm sure a bunch more. Then I'd start shutting down NY operations.
a method devised and often implemented by jessie jackson and al charlatan.
100% Jesse Jackson playbook. I remember when he tried it on the tech companies 20+ years ago. His victory was short-lived, but I'm sure the payoffs were nice.

Then they would all cry racism and bleat about how all the fat kids on food stamps can no longer get all their snacks.
The PLCAA protects against frivolous lawsuits which are based on the idea that the company is responsible for how its products are misused. Being unable to sue <insert gun mfgr here> over nothing anymore (and losing - the strategy isn't about winning/justice, it's about draining the resources of the target organization), the anti-gun forces (which includes the government) took on the only angle they had left for blaming an innocent party - going after their marketing.

“No company is too big to ensure that their products do not damage our environment and public health. All New Yorkers have a basic right to clean water, yet PepsiCo’s irresponsible packaging and marketing endanger Buffalo’s water supply, environment, and public health,” James said in a statement.
That's the exact same language that's being used against gun manufacturers. They're "irresponsible" with their "marketing" and somehow that makes kids want to shoot up schools.
I don't know how many times people have to be duped into accepting absolute bullsnot laws and regulations before they snap into reality and realize how screwed they already are. I really, really hope it isn't going to take the internet being locked down for that to happen, because if it reaches that point, it'll be way too late to do anything about it.

Exactly. And in case anyone is a fan of California's Governor Newsom, he doesn't give a crap about PLCAA or any other law he disagrees with. He has a history of ignoring any law he doesn't like.

Californians have a green light to sue the gun industry. How will that work?
One of the strangest pieces of legislation ever enacted in California took effect Jan. 1, giving state residents and visitors the same power to threaten the gun industry that Texans now wield over abortion providers.
Even backers of the law say this isn’t an entirely good thing.
SB 1327 authorizes anyone other than state or local government officials to sue people who violate the state’s laws against the manufacture, distribution or sale of assault weapons, ghost guns and other banned firearms. Lawsuits could also be brought against gun dealers who violate the state’s law against selling or transferring weapons (besides hunting rifles) to anyone under 21 years old.
Supporters say this “private right of action” will make the state’s tough gun-control measures more effective by enlisting an army of grass-roots enforcers. And by barring state and local governments from filing SB 1327 lawsuits, they hope to make the law harder to challenge in court.
