    This could easily come back to haunt the state.

    While I approve of what they are doing a state really has no business telling any business how to spend or not spend it's money. It could come back to haunt Delta as well, though. I doubt that many people will choose to fly Delta because they disavowed any affiliation with the NRA but a lot of NRA members will undoubtedly choose not to fly Delta because of it.

    Not if they fly a lot for business. What flight would you take if you were flying on a business trip from Atlanta to LA? A non stop flight on United at a competitive fare or a two stop Delta flight that is double the United fare?

    Sounds like a trick question.

    Man it’s strange seeing conservatives attack businesses. I support gun rights but I don’t support the fucking NRA.

    Think about this congressman though. His comments probably bought him enough campaign contributions from the NRA to where he doesn’t have to fundraise for the rest of the year.

    Is that what it is? The issue could certainly be framed another way.

    Don't worry about it. I made,a donation in your name. :D


    The NRA members tend to be very conservative and you wouldn't agree with many of them on most issues but if you support our 2nd amendment right to bear arms you should be in favor of the work they do to protect that right.
