Following the horrific Florida school shooting that claimed the lives of 17 students, anti-gun advocates have been on an all out social media crusade to intimate companies into abandoning their support and partnership for the National Rifle Association.
The NRA has partnerships with many companies that offer discounts, reduced rates and special plans for NRA members. Currently, liberal organizers on social media are on a campaign urging their obedient followers to post heated messages to these NRA partners urging them to cut ties with the NRA or lose their business.
Each company below as succumbed to the pressure of Twitter/Facebook leftists and have chosen to cower in fear, rather than stand with the millions of Americans who still hold gun rights as sacred and necessary for the preservation of a free society where citizens have the right to adequately defend themselves. Nevertheless, leftist-led armies of Twitter and Facebook bots are bombarding companies with boycott threats unless they cut ties with the NRA, making a few hundred people appear as hundreds of thousands.
The following is an up-to-date list of companies to boycott for their betrayal of America, the 2nd Amendment and every single one of their customers who still has respect the country’s foundation:
Enterprise Holdings
Enterprise Holdings owns Enterprise Rental Cars along with Alamo and National. Keep those in mind as well when compiling your boycott list.
Apparently, all it took for Enterprise to fold was a random Twitter user with an icon of Hillary Clinton's face who tweeted "#BOYCOTTNRA" over and over. Way to show some real backbone there Enterprise.
Hertz
Like Enterprise, car rental company Hertz also ended discounts to NRA members.
Avis and Budget Rental Cars
The company that owns the Avis and Budget rental car firms provides discounts to NRA members but said it would end that offer as of March 26.
TrueCar
The online car-buying service says that NRA members save an average of nearly $3,400 off the retail price of new and used vehicles.
First National Bank of Omaha
One of the nation's largest privately held banks, announced that it would not renew a Visa credit card co-branded with the NRA.
Delta Airlines
Delta has also shown their weakness and cowardice in the face of leftist/socialists bots on social media.
United Airlines
Americas “most hated airline” pulled support from the NRA, as if their reputation could get any worse after charging US soldiers and additional $200 baggage fee when coming home from Afghanistan.
MetLife Inc.
The insurer had offered discounts to NRA members on auto and home policies before axing the deal.
Metlife responded to tweets criticizing their decision to abandon their NRA customers by saying:
“We value all our customers but have decided to end our discount program with the NRA,” Metlife tweeted.
No, Metlife, you don’t value ALL your customers or you wouldn’t have ended a discount program benefiting ONLY members of the NRA.
Symantec Corp.
Thanks Symantec for showing how cowardly and weak you are in the face of Twitter/Facebook bots and leftists, caving to the mod’s demands and pulling your discount program from the @NRA. Remember when Stephen Willeford, and NRA member, stopped the Texas church shooter with an AR-15?
Chubb Ltd.
They are ending participation in the NRA's gun-owner insurance program, but are provided notice three months ago. Wow, how courageous of you Chubb.
Best Western
"Best Western Hotels & Resorts does not have an affiliation with and is not a corporate partner of the National Rifle Association," the hotel chain tweeted, without saying when the decision to part ways was made.
Wyndham Hotels
Surprisingly, several companies whose ads are frequently featured on conservative talk shows such as have also decided to throw their hats in the ring with anti-American leftist. LifeLock and Simplisafe are frequent advertisers and are regularly endorsed on talk shows hosted by Michael Savage, Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity.
Both LifeLock and SimpliSafe Home Security have pulled their support for the NRA, caving to pressure from the left in a stunning display of spinelessness and weakness.
SimpliSafe
SimpliSafe, a home security services company, also ended its NRA promotions. "We have discontinued our existing relationship with the NRA," CEO Chad Laurans said in a statement.
Lifelock
Cybersecurity firm Symantec, which owns Tempe-based LifeLock, offered NRA discounts for its LifeLock identity theft protection service and Norton anti-virus software. The company told USA TODAY on Friday that it had "stopped its discount program with the National Rifle Association."
Below is a printer-friendly version of this boycott list to share and keep handy. After all, these companies weren’t willing to support you and 2nd Amendment rights, so why should they receive your business ever again?
List of Companies Who Abandoned the NRA in Favor of an Anti-American Democratic Party Agenda:
I didn’t join the NRA for car rental discounts.
In fact I didn’t know that there were ‘all those’ discounts.
So who is losing out here?
Not me.
Almost all Toyota dealerships will rent
you a car. Ford, Chevy, and Dodge I
believe, use various rental car companies.
Not sure about Hyundai or Honda.
The problem for NRA members is proximity
to airports where rentals are readily
available. I’m wondering, if itineraries
for travelers might include having a
Toyota delivered to the airport. Seems
to me they would, recognising the need.
I’m also curious to see if these
“boycotted” companies will survive
due to the large amount of rental
cars used at NASCAR events.
Everyone I know who gets into NASCAR
is also a NRA member.
FedEx is wobbly.
Cabelas is still with the NRA.
Irony:
Goldman Sachs put the Bass Pro Cabelas deal together.
Yes, Goldman Sachs is the nations largest firearms dealer.
I canceled lifelock as well.
Thank you
SimplySafe and Lifelock advertise on Rush’s show. He spoke about this briefly on his Friday show saying these companies are under enormous pressure, and “he knows what that feels like”. Sounded like he was making excuses for them.
Fed Ex has changed their approach, I believe and is now backing away from the NRA.
The progressive site ThinkProgress, which has been tracking NRA partnerships, reports that a handful of other companies, including eHealth, Lockton, LifeLine Screening, Life Insurance Central, HotelPlanner.com, and Vinesse Wines still provide special discounts and benefits for NRA members.
I will cancel FNBank of Omaha.Too bad for them. Also will no longer fly Delta or United.
These companies have decided to side with the enemies of freedom instead of the defenders of freedom. The hell with them.
Starkey Hearing Technologies
NRA members must cease any future business with these 2nd Amendment enemies’ .
Looks like Thrifty is owned by Hertz. Not many options for us business travelers.
This is a big one! They are the only approved hearing aid for VA benefit, because they're made in the US.
They have no problem taking money from those of us who've defended their rights. But apparently, ours don't matter...
How stupid can a company be?
From their website:
American hearing aids for veterans
Starkey, the only American hearing company, is proud to support those who have served our country
