Whenever there’s a mass shooting, gun-grabbers respond in two ways: call for more gun control and attack the NRA. That’s certainly been the case following the recent school shooting in Parkland, Fla., but law-abiding members of the NRA aren’t taking it lying down.
Recently, three car rental companies – Enterprise, Alamo, and National – all revealed on Twitter that they’ve ended a discount program for NRA members effective March 26th.
Thanks for contacting us. We ended the program – effective March 26. https://t.co/tRdHdoevfT

All three companies are owned by Enterprise Holdings Inc. And in response, many supporters of the NRA vowed to never use their services again.
Well eff you too! We’ll never use Enterprise again.
FTR…I didn’t even use your discount.#NRA Lifetime member 🇺🇸— NormalDawn (@noprezzie2012) February 23, 2018
I am now ending my relationship with EnterpriseRentACar.

Thanks for letting me know. I will no longer rent from a company that actively avoid supporting the bill of rights.

You all do realize that other companies will step in to replace National right? If just 10% of NRA members rent a car once a month, thats a $24 million per year gain.

It is unfortunate that your rental companies have fallen victim to a group who cares not about safety, but about condemning safe, trained citizens protecting their neighbors and loved ones. Effective immediately, My 2 companies have cancelled accounts with your rental agencies.

However, Enterprise wasn’t the only company to sever ties with Enterprise. First National Bank of Omaha, the nation’s largest privately-owned bank, announced Thursday that they will no longer offer an NRA-branded Visa card.
Customer feedback has caused us to review our relationship with the NRA. As a result, First National Bank of Omaha will not renew its contract with the National Rifle Association to issue the NRA Visa Card.

And of course, Michael Moore had to throw in his two cents and label the NRA a “terrorist organization.”
The NRA is a terrorist organization. The media should speak of the NRA in the same way they do ISIS. Total ISIS-inspired deaths in US = 79. Thanks to the NRA & the politicians they buy, we’ve had 1.2 MILLION American gun deaths since John Lennon was shot dead in NYC #NRAKillsKids

These people are truly delusional. Attacking the Second Amendment and its supporters will achieve nothing, as they are not to blame for tragedies like what occurred in Parkland.
Share this if you support the NRA!
