NRA boycott kills outdoors show that banned assault weapons

A massive boycott backed by the NRA and outdoorsmen and women outraged that the nation's largest outdoors show banned the exhibition of assault weapons has caused the show's organizers to abruptly cancel the week-long event in Harrisburg, Pa.

The successful boycott, started by the website mynortheastoutdoors.com, was the biggest demonstration of support by the outdoors industry yet against gun control efforts being pushed in Washington and in several states.

The group that puts that show on is British.

I bet they were surprised that Americans companies would stand up for their guns and gun owning customers.

We could but far too many people don't have the balls to do what it takes!

I'm glad the show got cancelled. I hope it never returns!

“It has become very clear to us after speaking with our customers that the event could not be held because the atmosphere of this year’s show would not be conducive to an event that is designed to provide family enjoyment. 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.
“ESS has long been proud to participate in the preservation and promotion of hunting and fishing traditions, and we hope that as the national debate clarifies, we will have an opportunity to consider rescheduling the event when the time is right to focus on the themes it celebrates.”

IDIOTS!!!! Step on our toes and we will put our foot square up your ass!!!!

Maby our current legislators will take a hint.

I wonder if the will be any effect at the SEWE expo. I remember when it had some art work, an assload of guns and even more hunting stuff.

33 dozen companies is not a small percentage.
