These Are the Roughly 200 Businesses
Whose Leaders Are Backing Gun Control
Initiatives

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 2/22/2021 1:37:53 AM

The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms launched an initiative last year aimed at providing information to Second Amendment-loving Americans. The goal was to provide a comprehensive list of companies and/or CEOs who back gun control initiatives and legislation or have anti-firearm corporate policies in place.“When we started this project last year, we were actually surprised, and in some cases disappointed, at some of the businesses we added to the list," CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb said in a statement. "We discovered several brand name businesses and corporate leaders who evidently have a nefarious agenda to limit gun rights.

I agree. We should NOT allow Democrats to own guns. Make it law.

Most are no big surprise, but some just lost business- my business. Can't they just sell their product and shut up ? Now we have to pick sides in a divided country.. Obola must be so pleased.

Most I have never heard of. Many of them cater to the college woke crowd so not really many surprises. What they seem to forget is the purpose of a business, any business, is to make money. By taking a political stand of any kind they risk alienating people who might want to spend money there. That is bad business and the mark of a stupid owner.

You know if 500 companies support gun control measures that should not matter one bit. The second Amendment protects our right to keep and bear arms. Period. It is not contingent upon how many companies are against it. It is our right. Democrats know the procedure for changing an Amendment and know they cannot achieve their goal in that manner so they are going to chip away at it until there is nothing there. I guarantee if democrats are successful with removing our guns, the purge will begin. Never give them up because to do so would be suicide. If you ever had any doubt about democrats willingness to do such a thing, it should be crystal clear that they are willing and ready to do whatever it takes to make us submit and that is very hard to do when we are armed. A meme going around the internet is: The only reason the government would want to disarm us after 243 years is because they are planning on doing something to us that we would shoot them for.

It is well worth your time to review the full list. I see that AT&T is on the list. Close your accounts with them. Also Bain Capital is on the list - once upon a time, Pierre Delecto ran Bain Capital. Remember when he was being investigated for fraud? That was quite the wealth grab he got away with. Auto Zone is on the list. And of course, google is on the list. Boycott them all if you haven't already.

He hates Trump, so he penalizes his own citizens. DeBlasio is a terrible manager, he has no business managing anything. He's just a political hack who has stupid ideas. There should be precise job descriptions for mayors and governors, written by the citizens.

It's strange I scrolled the entire list and I don't do business with any of them. Serious this is not a surprising list but none have taken any of my money while they contribute to 'gun control'. I can add others but there's no need to. Red Lobster and Camping World are two more on the ground that they don't like Trump supporters there are others on the basis that they don't like my politics of voting.

Remember how democrats have traditionally had quite a disdain for corporations? Some democrat, maybe Bubba or Zero, wanted to make it a law that employees of a corporation had to to vote, in majority, before their corporation could donate to a political candidate. That didn't fly, so now in an about face, they have weaponized corporations, probably via extortion, against us. Foxtrot Tango Sierra.

That's a big list. Of course there will be no repercussions for them, as others have pointed out, the leftists already has them cowed. They probably see it as "the cost of doing business." If our side could get its act together we'd target just two or three of the most convenient--the weakest -- of these companies and make an example of them. ("pick a target, freeze it..." ) From then on our threats will be taken seriously and computing the "cost of doing business" will include us.

Even if you don't use them now, or would never use them in the future, there are often ways to make companies aware that their anti-2nd amendment behavior might be hurting their biz. For example, I'll be stuffing the numerous GEICO pre-paid postage envelopes that come to my address with other junk mail (sans any information that would identify me), along with a colorful note telling them why I will never be a GEICO customer.

The hypocrisy is astounding, isn't it? Not one of these companies would dare to hang out a sign in front of their buildings saying that there were absolutely "NO GUNS ARE INSIDE THIS BUILDING". In fact, their security teams carry weapons, many use armed personal body guards when traveling, etc. If they call 911, they expect police immediately .... carrying guns! Disney and HBO make movies glorifying guns and armed violence and AMC Theaters show movies that do the same ... but you shouldn't be allowed to protect YOUR home and family the way they protect theirs! Just stunning.

I proudly boycott businesses that take a political position opposed to my constitutional rights. I will download this list and save it so I can refer to it periodically as a refresher. Will also run a printout to keep in my car so as to avoid these businesses when I travel. They all have made it clear that they do not value us as customers, so we need to take a stand.

But the media ran with the much more controversial “Let’s go, Brandon!” pretty much on the word of an AP reporter.

Virginia Democrat gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe shifted his communication strategy away from Donald Trump the weekend before Tuesday’s election. McAuliffe said in Virginia Beach on Saturday his campaign is “not about Trump,” despite constantly attempting to bring Donald Trump into the statewide election for months. McAuliffe also doubled down Sunday on CNN, saying the election was no longer about Trump. “I’d love to have him come in,” McAuliffe said of Trump. “But you know… this is not about Trump.”The change in direction comes as McAuliffe has accused Republican candidate Glenn Youngkin of being a “Trump wannabe.”

Unvaccinated people who had been infected months earlier were 5 times more likely to get COVID-19 than fully vaccinated people who didn’t have a prior infection, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention concluded in a new study. “These data show, pretty strongly, that the vaccines are more protective against symptomatic COVID,” said Dr. Mike Saag, an infectious disease expert at the University of Alabama.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations is reporting a new high in the bullying of Muslim children in California public, charter and non-Islamic private schools. In a statewide survey of 708 Muslim students aged 11 to 18 years old, 55% reported “feeling unsafe, unwelcome or uncomfortable at school because of their Muslim identity,” the highest level in five such reports since the biennial study began in 2013, CAIR-CA reported. Hussam Ayloush, head of the civil rights group’s California chapter, told The Washington Times that the results confirm American Muslims have “faced growing challenges due to Islamophobia” in popular culture and public hate crimes during the past 20 years

“Let’s go, Brandon,” says the right…and the left. As first covered by The Hill, a new poll found that a majority of Democrat voters believe that when it comes to 2024, Biden needs to be left behind in favor of someone more capable and, on top of that, able to win against a Republican contender: The NPR-PBS NewsHour-Marist poll found 44 percent of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents believe that a new nominee will give them their best shot at victory in the next presidential election, while 36 percent want the party to stick with Biden.

One of the show’s characters has quipped about how “insiders are also saying that, during meetings, President Biden repeatedly uses the f-word in conversation. More concerning, the f-word he keeps using is ‘forget.’”

President Joe Biden complained that Russia and Saudi Arabia were not producing enough oil to alleviate high gas prices in the United States, despite his administration’s efforts to reduce domestic production. “I do think the idea that Russia and Saudi Arabia, and other major producers are not going to pump more oil so people can have gasoline to get to and from work, for example, is not right,” Biden said during a press conference after the G20 Summit in Europe. On Saturday, the president urged energy producing countries at the summit to boost oil production to pressure OPEC+ nations to increase supply and reduce gas prices around the world.
