A few years ago when I was working as a policeman I was assigned to a security detail that provided protection to a certain Baptist church that travels throughout the US protesting at police and military funerals. It was personally distasteful for me but it was orders from above and the US Supreme Court said it was a lawful protest.
As long as the boycott/protest is lawful you should't have any issues.

As a Student Director at Legal Assistance to Minnesota Prisoners while at the University of Minnesota Law School I had to represent as a Student Attorney two boys who burned down a school library. My passion is libraries so this was very hard for me but I did though my Attorney Supervisor as much as I could for them. I cannot go into any detail even if I remembered them from 1988-1989.
Also I had a stalker Gail P., at the University of Minnesota Library who was researching her case from a U of MN Mathematics Professor for stalking him. I helped her as much as I was supposed to according to my librarianship training but it was difficult when she started harassing my then live-in girlfriend Jennifer V. Still the U of MN Law Library was loath to step on the rights of Gail P.
I do recognize the difficulties of balancing different interests.
