Chief executives of 145 companies urge Senate to pass gun control laws

I think that one reason most corporations now are going all left-wing is because the leadership, the C-suite (as in CEO, CFO, CIO, etc), mostly comes from the demographic that has those convictions. They spent many years at ivy league schools like Yale and Harvard. Most of their friends and business associates did, too. They probably spent some time in NY and California. Many came from wealthy families from the northeast. My last company was a great little healthcare company from a small town in Indiana that was mostly Catholic and Lutheran. Good Friday was a company holiday. New CEO comes in, moves the HQ to Chicago, brings in a new management team from places like Starbucks. Company lurched to the left. Good Friday swapped out for MLK day. Used to, we got excited when we created something that made early glaucoma detection available and inexpensive enough for the most poverty-stricken patients to get it. Or reduced the number of patient falls in a hospital. Now the big news on the corporate Intranet is that we're celebrating Pride month.
 
That was perfect plus Kristen Ritter is so hot.

Well I’m a genius soooooooo

God you have no idea how long I’ve been waiting to use that gif. Thanks for that. Lol.

And yeah. Kristen Ritter made me want to do heroin in breaking bad.

I hope people don't get lazy and decide not to vote in any election, every vote in EVERY election counts.

With that being said, we are moving towards a society where the left will have their stores and the right will have their stores. All this division being caused by the mainstream media and their supporters are going to cause capitalism to take over and alternate outlets will pop up for just about everything
Sooo...who's a candidate to look at??? Cause from where I'm setting...I just don't know.
 
Publix is joining a growing number of retailers in asking customers not to openly carry firearms in its stores, even if state laws allow it.
This is the "back door" approach. If they can't pass a law, they'll just make it less and less possible to exercise the right.

Beto is pushing for credit card companies to refuse to support gun purchases. We already have some, and some banks, refusing to do business with companies that sell guns. They don't NEED the law to change if they can make ownership impossible by other means.
 
CEO of Royal Caribbean has been around a long time; Richard Fain has been CEO since 1988. So the theory about companies moving to the left due to demographics isn't necessarily to blame here.

Seems about the way a lot of companies are going. I work in software engineering - I don't have a lot of options in my field that aren't horribly left-leaning in every possible way. There are probably people at the office who would report me to HR if they knew I posted here.

I am not just talking presidential. We obviously dont have a perfect candidate for that and we usually don't but we can always vote against the left who we know wants every gun gone.

Sadly, that's pretty much where we are now. Pick the sucky candidate who MIGHT NOT take your guns over the sucky candidate who absolutely will.

Fain was already pretty solidly on the left ("B.S. degree in economics from the University of California at Berkeley") before he became CEO of Royal Caribbean. He is apparently a proud, virtue-signaling member of the corporate elite and country club set ("He drives a Tesla and has a 15-kilowatt wind turbine at his vacation home in North Carolina.").

Yep. Leftist Royalty............

They sense this is the right time to gamble with alienating customers during a decent economy while pushing progressive agendas
 
Eh....hot air.

As bad as some wish for it, the RTKBA is not going anywhere, unless it is willingly relinquished.

Choices.


...and don’t believe a damned word you hear in the media. Contrary to what’s being reported, the American people do not have an aversion to firearms, neither do they wish to see an end to private ownership.

I base that upon the fact there are around 1.5 - 2 Million NICS transactions every MONTH.

EDIT: Just checked the numbers...

Since Oct 2018, there have been no less than 2 million NICS transactions every month and some months have been as high as 2.6 million.

2 million a month works out to around 66,000 EVERY DAY.

All the more reason to really step up our game with small amounts of gold, silver and other easily bought, sold and traded goods. Booze, eggs, beef whatever. Be Vikings, pirates and creative.

Yeah, FU commies.

The positive I see if credit card companies stopping gun purchases is a newer company popping up or people get off the old, saggy, enslaving tit of debt to at least some degree.

Already happening. Many online companies have went to either self-financing or using other smaller companies like US Credit for their financial needs. The rates and terms are competitive or even better than the behemoths who have to supports tens of thousands of workers.
 
Truthfully there were only of couple companies on the list I have ever used and the rest I never even heard of. Seems more like a who cares what you say or think list to me.

This is pertinent info!

If only 80% of those checks resulted in a firearm sale, that means over 19,000,000 guns bought in 1 year.

I call that a poll!
 
contact their competition GrubHub or any of the half dozen others just like them and ask them how they feel about this, then patronize the one that answers correclty. Make sure you let DoorDash know how good their service is. I just did that with Royal Caribbean.
If I remember right, GrubHub is just as bad. Surprised they didn't sign this one actually.
 
The wife bought a pair of Tom's last year for Christmas. I told her then that it would be her last pair and made sure all the liberal in-laws heard it and why we were not buying anymore.

Politicians & politicians that are providing false leadership to primarily un and under-educated populous.


They have us going on 3 ( Three) fronts; ( Just at the National Level )
1) Red Flag Laws ( National )
2) Continued Gun Ban , Congress
3) Dem POTUS prospects in 2020 with majority of them Boasting they will take our firearms away.

Contrary to what’s being reported, the American people do not have an aversion to firearms, neither do they wish to see an end to private ownership.

Well ultimately it's not directly up to us Citizens, as you know it's up to the 535 members of Congress.
If the House & Senate pass illegal ( Unconstitutional provisions ) bill~s and POTUS signs it then we screwed for years to let cases go through the court system.
You realize this.

Overall, we all know we have a people problem and yet in the last week or so all I've heard ( we've heard ) has nothing to do with address the people problem because the Hacks have switched gears right back to Dis-Arming America.

When a person is elected to an office at any level they're suppose to uphold the U.S. Constitution and many times ( at all levels ) it is not, period.
So, if these elected officials can not handle or deal with finding reasonable solutions for issues & problems without Screwing everybody else in the process, then the officials in question need to Step Down, A.S.A.P. because they are inept, incompetent , corrupt, or have just become a total embarrassment.
