The only thing these political correctness gun grabbers understand are boycotts and less money.

Am I the only one who is bothered by news sites that require that we comment only via Facebook? It is counter to our long term culture to require the public to identify themselves with a real name, when the paid news media sites typically do not identify op-eds or editorials by author.

->Jackson and Vonseggern are Army veterans and Vonseggern was awarded a Purple Heart.

God bless these two men. I will not stop in Staples any longer. I did go there often for our business supplies.

I highly suggest that anyone planning to discontinue shopping at Staples contact Staples to let them know why you don’t want to give them any more business.

A boycott is far more effective if the targeted company knows why the boycott.

promotes alcohol, illegal drugs, tobacco, firearms/weapons (or the use of any of the foregoing)

Are they also rejecting entries from any business that sells tobacco or alcohol?

Here is the reply I just got from Staples about the contest.

Hi Michael, thank you for your feedback.

We heard you! At Staples, we value all of our customers and appreciate your feedback. We now realize the rules of our Push It Forward contest were too restrictive and kept out legitimate businesses. Unfortunately, we can’t change the rules once the contest is underway. But we will revise our rules to make sure future contests are more inclusive and reflect our commitment to helping all small businesses.

Thank you for this opportunity to respond to your inquiry. Have a fantastic weekend!

Christina

I had e-mailed them and said that as a gun owner it seemed to me that Staples did not want to have gun store owners using Staples. So I would not also.
