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. - Townhall
I'm looking over this list and I realize that all these companies are supporting the dream of a Disney-fied world where nothing bad ever happens. A fantasyland if you will. For a large portion of America, nothing bad ever does happen so it's an easy and pleasant thing to imagine. Well, as long as you don't look too close, but we won't get into that. People who buy into this fantasy certainly don't.
Some of the leaders may actually believe in their fantasy, but I suspect many of them are only on the anti-gun bandwagon because that's what their frivolous customers want, or they are listening to marketing people who are telling them that.
Fortunately we have the NRA. Too bad the NRA is having internal squabbles. They have been the mainstay against the fight against gun control since forever. They are the ones who organize the letter writing campaigns that inundate Congressmen whenever a gun control bill comes up for a vote. I believe the NRA has even organized campaigns to unseat particular gun control advocates from their seat in Congress.
If the NRA got their house in order, they might be able to bring some of these splinter organizations back under the NRA umbrella, which could make them an even more potent force.
