I emailed Enterprise and told them never again and why.

This is war.

They have been making war against patriots for a long time. God be with all patriots and for once in history, let’s have GOODNESS win.

I just stopped by the local Enterprise facility and cut my Enterprise Card in half at the counter and told the employees there to start looking for another job, as their company will be in Chapter 11 by the beginning of summer. I don’t believe in boycotts , but this is one of the dumbest moves I’ve ever seen. They can go “F” themselves and their anti-constitution friends!

Messing with guns is messing with the “third rail” on a subway system. The Dems think they have the high ground because they are yelling in their own echo chamber. But they are a MINORITY and the majority of people don’t want the DEMs fooling around with gun control. They’ll find that out in the midterms. They are setting themselves up for a massive failure just like they did by listening to the echo chamber yelling Hillary for President.

Don’t just boycott - goto enterprise.com and reserve a car with a fake name and fake email address - and never show up. No credit card required. ...ties up a car and people that really want to rent one won’t be able to.

No, don't do that.

That is the sort of smarmy underhanded sabotage engaged in by members of the Saul Alinsky Left. We are better than that.

Just call or email and tell them that you will no longer use their product because you support the NRA and are upset with their decision. That is more than enough.

Thanks; I’ll compare USAA and AAA the next time I need a rental.

DW and I are long-time AMAC members. Thanks for the tip.

Does AAA donate to LIEberals?

Well, I have not used Budget or Dollar in a while, but IIRC, their prices are competitive with the others.

Fumbled around Enterprise’s website, will have to try another route or another one of the brands.

Per CNBC and the comPost, Hertz just bailed.

Hertz was the most expensive one out there anyway. I don’t go with them. I don’t rent cars too often anyway...but when I did, it was almost always Enterprise.

Not anymore.

Here is my response from Enterprise on the email I sent concerning their dropping the NRA from their discount policy.

Response: Shanita - 02/23/2018 03:50 PM
Dear Mr. W,

Enterprise Holdings does not sponsor, endorse or take a political stance with any organization. We regularly review our discount offers and decide which ones continue to make sense for our business. Last evening we made the decision to stop offering our NRA discount.

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. Have a nice day!

Sincerely,
Shanita

The timing seems a little suspicious to me for a company that espouses to not have a political agenda.

I’ll patronize Rent-a-Wreck. Just checked. They’re still around and aren’t advocating infringing upon anyone’s right to bear arms. Because this ain’t really about the NRA and we all know it.

yeah, they’re liars. this is a political attack and it’ll cost them my business. I promise. And I do rent cars. Not every week, not every month, but a few times a year.

not one thin dime will they get.

That’s a different answer than I got, directly, from an Enterprise C/S rep, earlier today.

She told me that yes, they were in fact ending their sponsoring/ad relationship with the NRA, effective Mar 26th.

I wonder if they’ve been inundated with calls/emails and are reconsidering their removal/boycott stance?

I called the customer service phone number and the number for the CEO—both are on this thread—talked to customer service person and was polite and very direct...left message on CEO voice mail...again polite but very direct!

I have always rented from Enterprise or National—sad to have to say goodbye.

Well, just tried Dollar — slow service, can’t get PAI only for insurance.
