Leaders of 145 companies wrote a letter addressed to the Senate, asking for them to pass background checks and a strong Red Flag law.

Chief executives who signed include the CEOs of Uber, Levi Strauss and Gap.

The letter comes after Walmart stepped back from selling certain kinds of ammunition following two shootings at its stores.

Levi’s - Gun grabbers since the 1990s.

Thrive Capital’s Joshua Kushner, who is also the brother to White House advisor and President Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, signed the letter as well. The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

[DIRTYSECRET]

It’s like HMO’s wanting Obamacare.

[usconservative]

Bain Capital. Mitt Romney. Figures.

[rktman]

Quit them long before that.

[Teacher317]

"Simply ALL of the Correct People say so!"

[drwoof]

The implication being that if one does not publicly support “gun control”, one clearly supports deadly attacks by lunatics on innocent people.

The Chief executives of 145 companies get one vote each, just like the rest of us. Beyond that, they can blather all they want. But their opinions matter no more than ours do.

Huh …

Funny how it works that way.

Send Javanka back to New York. Their New York Values are bad for America.

But their opinions matter no more than ours do.

Their donations and PAC donations do though...

[Skywise]

They are free to run their companies in China.

Who the hell cares what these people think?

Who the hell cares what these people think?

Politicians.

[Truth29]

Capitalists selling the enemy the rope to hang them with. If the Left takes over, they will either become fascists collaborators or be destroyed.

[Vendome]

Of the ones well known to me, Indo not do business with them

The rest are penny ante companies who won’t be around 5 years from now

Cute trick though.

Finding 50 companies with more than 500 employees to join in the beat down and 100 never going to be anybody’s

[Vendome]

Just a publicity stunt so, they can get the president on record in opposition.

Fk em

[cpt jack 1]

Rich elitists don’t want me to have guns? Wow, that’s new! I couldn’t find the list of companies that want to see me oppressed. Does someone have it? Asking for a friend.

[robel]

Leftist executives of 145 companies...

[NicoDon]

Hey look, a list of 145 companies to boycott.
