Gun Control

dangerous game of state sponsored blackmail.   it might work or they might drive delta out  and cost georgia approximately 33,000 jobs from delta.  not sure how many supporting jobs that may be added to that cost

Couldn't Delta also take them to court?

i don't know.   a lawyer would have to answer that.   maybe breach of contract possible?

You'd think that the blatantness of this all gave the game away. It's possible that there is no way they can actually accomplish this (I hope -- it'd be much scarier if they could), but did it anyway to make a useful cultural statement.

The correct and maybe only real recourse is to vote these people out of office. This is the State Senate and the State Legislature there. It's not just the national elections that matter, and it's one reason why the remarkable year Democrats have had at the state level in special elections, etc, is noteworthy.

In the article it says Delta is the biggest private employer in Georgia.

I don't think they're actually going to do it.

Florida gets it: 


Here's Andrew Gillum, Democrat mayor of Tallahassee and candidate for Governor:


His campaign platform? Medicare for all, higher corporate taxes with gains to be directed towards public education, and a $15 minimum wage. http://www.orlandosentinel.com/opinion/os-florida-governor-campaign-issues-scott-maxwell-20180202-story.html 

Among Republican candidates:

On guns, Putnam said he already helped Florida become first in the nation for concealed-carry permits by cutting costs and the “red tape.” He vowed to “make Florida the first in the nation for law-abiding citizens to exercise their 2nd Amendment rights.”

You can do this, Florida.

And Lincoln. We're only about 150 gates away from hub status.

Naaa.....didn't you see the tweet from our wonderful governor?  Nebraskans support our constitution and now we're trying to get the NRA convention.

 

[BigRedBuster]

Yea.......I don't think Delta is coming to Lincoln.

And Virginia, New York, and Birmingham.......

I always wondered what Mr. obvious did for a living. Come to find out, he’s a published researcher.
