Does anyone here boycott any organization because of their stance on the 2nd ammendment? If so, we need a list of the organizations to boycott.

Anyone have a link to a site that lists all the boycotts for anti gun corporations?

I don't have the link but the NRAILA site has what you are looking for. Do a search there.

Smith and Wesson forum. The owner is a jerk and has a lousy stand on the Second Ammendment as do quite a few of its members.

I don't buy guns with integral locks (Taurus, SW revolvers, Non-Police Remingtons) so I guess that you could call that a boycott too.

There's more (such as Disney/Miramax, funding Mickey Moore's latest piece of crap), but many of the lists have repetitions from other lists, or are not all inclusive.
Just go Googling (http://www.google.com) , which is also anti-gun.

Should we boycott just the offenders listed, or also their parent companies and subsidiaries? After all, they do profit from our business. The list could get pretty looong.

I don't buy guns with integral locks (Taurus, SW revolvers, Non-Police Remingtons) so I guess that you could call that a boycott too.Of course you're welcome to your opinion on things, and I don't much care for the integral locks, either, but please know that Taurus is the perfect model of what a freedom-fighter firearm company should be. When they were approached with the S&W deal, they told the feds to take a flying leap. Dunno if they're still doing it, but Taurus USA had been buying each new owner a membership to the NRA everytime they purchased a new Taurus. I do admire their leadership as a company.

That said, I don't even own a Taurus at this time. Actually, I've only owned one, that I sold 3 days later. (nice pistol, but my buddy needed a pocket pistol, so I sold it at a loss.)

Now I'm really pissed off. I just watched Open Range with Costner. The plot of the movie, to me, underlines the need for the people to be armed.

I don't hold someone's personal opinion against them. If they make money from gun movies that show guns in a bad light I just avoid the movie not the actor. But when they make money off pro 2A movies and then spout off anti gun rhetoric I have to draw the line

I have Time Warner Cable and Road Runner . Though this company is anti-gun, I use it to watch pro-gun TV (American Shooter, Hunting shows...etc), and bash and disprove anti-gun myths and lies. I think this evens out in the end.
