No mention of Second Amendment Rights, they have previously mentioned they support The Second Amendment.

A lot of money gets brought into the state.

Not now. A lot of tax revenue up in smoke as well; I'd wager.

That's the message I sent to my governor who is trying to weasel out of dealing with pro second amendment bills being introduced by claiming that his priority is jobs.

They still don’t get it and then try to blame the evil gun owners for the “postponement”.

Obama's fault!

I understand that I live in Dauphin county. I also know more people who voted for Obama and Casey then voted for republicans in Dauphin county. They get to own part of this due to the Presidents rhetoric that started the escalation of this show closing. Just like three weeks ago when I had to explain why they had less money in their paychecks. Voting has consequences.

The gun grabbers have been trying to divide shooters into specific interest groups for decades, they need to be taught they will have to fight us all together.

Excuse me!

He’s *not* a Salamander.

He’s a Gecko.

Salamanders are pro-gun.

Well, there goes this years Christmas present for those politicians. They're going to have to steal their revenue from someone else.

Since it’s postponed the exhibitors should demand their money back, they had planned to do this on these dates and now the planners of the show have lost the confidence of exhibitors and they are not willing to invest with them again. Some one else should step forward and and do a competing show.

I’ve heard that this frigging “Reed” company that organizes this event also does the Las Vegas SHOT show......the vendors who stood their ground here should put a nail in the coffin of this British company’s tenure here in this country. We don’t need a company from a country overrun by Muslims, Political Correctness, and government intrusion creating and managing 2A venues here in this country. BAN THEM FOREVER!

There were a lot of groups with a lot of members on the boycott list. Such as :

PA Federation of Sportsmen’s Clubs
Pennsylvania Trappers Assoc.
Susquehanna River Waterfowlers Assoc
Unified Sportsmen of PA
National Rifle Association
National Skeet Shooting Association

Finally, people have had enough and are standing up for their rights!

Worth repeating.

Get the message to GEICO.

NOWHERE on the linked pages do these ideological tyrants offer a means for the common consumer to send them feedback. They can choke on their British heritage...

OR, they can wait until they find out which state is people friendly and which state is politician friendly. They can move their business to a nicer state so the profits can go there.

ALL business should consider moving out of liberal or liberal leaning states. They'd be much better off in the long run.

It is unfortunate that in the current emotionally charged atmosphere this celebratory event has become overshadowed by a decision that directly affected a small percentage of more than 1,000 exhibits showcasing products and services for those interested in hunting and fishing.

They sound like a bunch of wimps. Hope they lost a ton of money with their spinelessness. A small percentage? Looks like it was enough for them to pull the plug on their show however.

CONGRATS! One GEICO policy down! Whoo Hoo! That’s very good news. They started this fight. Taking sides is noticeable in this age.
