The NRA Releases A Statement On The Boycotts

A bunch of companies have severed ties with the NRA, because liberals have convinced them that it’s somehow shameful to be associated with an organization that champions your right to keep and bear arms.

Thanks for reaching out. Effective March 26, we will no longer provide the NRA member discount. ~Sam

After TERRORIZING Americans for decades, it’s great to finally see the NRA playing defense. #BoycottNRA

The NRA has issued a response. Alyssa Milano thinks it’s “gross,” which obviously means it’s good.

The more than five million law-abiding members of the National Rifle Association have enjoyed discounts and cost-saving programs from many American corporations that have partnered with the NRA to expand member benefits.

Since the tragedy in Parkland, Florida, a number of companies have decided to sever their relationship with the NRA, in an effort to punish our members who are doctors, farmers, law enforcement officers, fire fighters, nurses, shop owners and school teachers that live in every American community. We are men and women who represent every American ethnic group, every one of the world’s religions and every form of political commitment.

The law-abiding members of the NRA had nothing at all to do with the failure of that school’s security preparedness, the failure of America’s mental health system, the failure of the National Instant Check System or the cruel failures of both federal and local law enforcement.

Despite that, some corporations have decided to punish NRA membership in a shameful display of political and civic cowardice. In time, these brands will be replaced by others who recognize that patriotism and determined commitment to Constitutional freedoms are characteristics of a marketplace they very much want to serve.

Let it be absolutely clear. The loss of a discount will neither scare nor distract one single NRA member from our mission to stand and defend the individual freedoms that have always made America the greatest nation in the world.

I’m just gonna leave this here.

For the first time in American history, the NRA is so desperate it is blaming the police, local law enforcement, and the FBI. Even calling them “cruel.” You know, the good guys with a gun. #BoycottNRA pic.twitter.com/Up6ChG7TDO

Few things to note:
1.) Four officers sat on their hands
2.) The FBI straight up disregarded MULTIPLE warnings about the shooter
3.) It’s cruel to tell emotionally vulnerable kids that your misguided gun-grabbing agenda will protect them. #BoycottNRA is bull https://t.co/1b7wprxuKw
