WOW!!! This is a big deal. FEDEX just ended its relationship with the NRA. They refused to do this after the Parkland shooting, but I am overwhelmed that they have decided to finally do this. Thank you FEDEX.

It's not just about the guns, it's about the types of guns that have proliferated recently, that should only be available for military use and not civilian. Mowing down dozens of people, let alone a single person, should not be acceptable.

The shipping giant tells Local 24 News, the NRA will no longer be associated with any FedEx marketing programs beginning Sunday. However, NRA members will continue to receive the discounts.
FedEx says the NRA is among the more than 100 organizations that are transitioning out of the discount program.
FedEx sent this statement to Local 24 News:
We are transitioning some account holders in more than 100 organizations in the FedEx Marketing Alliance program to other pricing programs. Account holders that participated in the program will continue to receive the same discounts on FedEx shipping, and we will work directly with these customers to ensure a seamless transition.
