Artie, Is this what you had in mind?!
Well that would be exactly the same as:
On April 1, the Nazi Propaganda Minister, Joseph Goebbels, declared a
national boycott against German Jews. The boycott was carefully planned
to begin simultaneously in every city and town at 1OAm. Uniformed, and
often armed, guards were placed in front of every store or business
owned by Jews. Customers were prevented from entering. Guards were also
placed at the offices of Jewish lawyers and doctors.
Jewish businesses and department stores, which were a prominent part of
the community, became convenient targets for the boycotts. The modern
department store, with its fixed and low prices, was blamed for
Germany's economic crisis. Nazi propaganda claimed that all department
stores were in Jewish hands and were a danger to the German middle
class. As part of the boycott, signs were posted warning, "Jewish
store! Whoever buys here will be photographed." Trucks, with Nazis
bearing signs, patrolled the streets. The signs proclaimed, "Germans!
Defend yourselves! Don't buy from Jews!"
The boycotts were among the first measures taken against the Jews
during the Holocaust and laid the groundwork for the subsequent removal
of Jews' civil and human rights. Following the boycotts the Nazis
passed laws barring Jews from public schools, the professions and the
civil service.
BOYCOTT
Refusal to buy a product or patronize a store. Often used as a form of
protest or coercion.

Actually I was thinking of an expanded boycott and of alleged
Christians
being vocal about the slander of Christ by the Cult.
