Georgia lieutenant governor threatens Delta after it cuts ties with NRA
Quote:
Georgia Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle (R) said Monday he would block any tax legislation that benefits Delta Airlines after the company ended its discount program for National Rifle Association (NRA) members.
"I will kill any tax legislation that benefits @Delta unless the company changes its position and fully reinstates its relationship with @NRA. Corporations cannot attack conservatives and expect us not to fight back," Cagle tweeted.
I called the governor's office today and asked them to bar state employees from using several of the companies on the list (United, Delta, Best Western and the various rental car companies). Apparently I wasn't the first one to call and suggest that. The lady on the phone sounded a little exasperated.
FedEx won't drop NRA from discount program
Quote:
FedEx Corp said on Monday it would allow the National Rifle Association to continue using a discount program but said it opposed sales of assault rifles.
The package delivery company's statement comes as major corporations are under pressures to sever marketing and other ties with the NRA in the aftermath of the Feb. 14 shooting that killed 17 people at a Florida high school.
FedEx said its positions on the issues of gun policy and safety differ from those of the NRA. The shipper supports restricting assault rifles to the military and opposes allowing civilians to use them.
"While we strongly support the constitutional right of U.S. citizens to own firearms subject to appropriate background checks, FedEx views assault rifles and large capacity magazines as an inherent potential danger to schools, workplaces, and communities when such weapons are misused," FedEx said.
As for discounts, it added that "FedEx has never set or changed rates for any of our millions of customers around the world in response to their politics, beliefs or positions on issues."
Dicks Sporting Goods is going to stop selling AR's, high capacity mags and will no longer sell guns to anyone under 21 regardless of local law, according to their CEO. They are going to remove the guns and mags from their stores today. The CEO said it is a direct response to the murders in FL.

No surprise here. I haven't been in one of their stores for 5+ years.
