16. Remember, publicly held corporations do NOT have a conscience.

That is not a snark or a condemnation, just a simple statement. If top management does not return a profit to its stockholders they suddenly find themselves out of a job. So they are very sensitive to the desires of their customers.

The number of corporations that are distancing themselves from the NRA and assault style weapons says more about the fact that there has been a significant change in attitude on the part of the buying public. Now, we need to keep that energy flowing and the Fla kids need to keep the energy flowing, and Trump and the NRA can go f**k themselves.

We did it with Limbaugh and now we have a chance to do it with guns.
