The American left has many distorted views of the world. Their panting salivating joy over the now seemingly endless list of companies that have withdrawn discounts from NRA members is just the latest example of its social maladjustment.
The lefts everyday lives serve as a reminder that merely living in America and even being born in America doesnt make one truly an American. They might live in America, but they are not Americans.
They dont understand the laws and customs we Americans follow nor do they want to; ignorance of, and separation from, American culture has become point of pride to these people. They see themselves as citizens of the world as some have actually said.
This is what makes these corporate discount withdrawals so foolish. They have no up side for the companies but plenty of down side. So why do they do these things?
Why would they follow an 18 year old who is the media anointed leader of the Democrats, a party which is largely out of step with America already?
Let that sink in: The Democrat party is now being led by an 18 year- old child who is so drunk with power he has threatened The NRA, FEDEX and UPS. He has called for a boycott of Florida by Spring breakers and actually said I will not allow Governor Scott to remove Sheriff Israel.
This brings us back to the discount discontinuations.
Does anybody even know anybody who joined NRA for the discounts? Of course not. Ive been a life member for at least ten years and never once thought about accessing a discount from any of the cowardly companies that have joined the attacks on the NRA.
Im sure Im not alone in this position. That the left sees the NRA as a shopping club while we know it is a civil rights organization is a clear example of the difference between us and them.
The left doesnt live in the world we NRA members and supporters live in. They have no idea how we live. They have never travel through rural America and spoken to the people who elected Donald Trump.
They and the cowardly companies that have fallen in line behind a child dont realize that we will merely stay elsewhere, fly with different carriers, be insured by others and live our lives as we always have.
The corporate cowards are the ones who will lose customers who will not come back. They should ask the NFL about that. They will be left to offer discounts to the far left who dont live the lives that caused these companies to offer us discounts in the first place.
When they come to their senses they will be left with a mess children dont clean up after themselves; and we will still be supporting the NRA. We will be stronger and so will the NRA.
I join on Presidential election years. That’s usually when I need a new NRA Duffle bag too:-) But tomorrow, payday I rejoin with vigor.
It’s just a matter of time, and all
of these companies that are jumping
on the anti-NRA wagon will be headed
downhill with no brakes. Eventually,
the wagon will overturn.
I’ve been an NRA member for many
years. I hate bumper stickers,
but there is a NRA sticker, and
a American flag on each of the
5 cars I own. I did not join
for the discounts they offer,
nor have I used them.
When that Omaha based bank ended their credit card affinity program with the NBA, it only gave me more incentive to take Dave Ramsey’s advice and pay off my credit cards with all deliberate speed and cut the damn things up once and for all.
Been a Life Member since 1974.
Been a certified range instructor (or whatever it’s termed) since 2014 or thereabouts.
Like many other posters, I was not aware any discounts existed, until Enterprise Rent-a-Car made the news by rescinding theirs.
I like your new graphic!
Aint they cute??
SAF, GOA fan here.
I have been a member since joining as a Jr. that was in 1967. Never once have I used the discount.
We should hope the little reptile David Hogg and his mentors succeed in doing for the NRA what Bath House Barry did for gun sales...
