Mainecat Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 It starts.... Three major car rental companies dump the NRA Three major car rental companies dump the NRA The backlash is growing. Luke Barnes Feb 22, 2018, 8:20 pm A major car rental conglomerate which operates three prominent national brands is ending its corporate relationship with the National Rifle Association, as backlash grows in the wake of the Parkland mass shooting. Enterprise Holdings, which operates Enterprise, Alamo, and National, had a partnership with the NRA to provide discounts to members. The discounts are available to NRA members once they pay their $40 annual fee — and were among the 22 corporations offering discounts and “five star savings” to the gun lobby’s members. On Thursday, however, all three brands announced that they would be ending the program within the next month. The announcement follows close on the heels of First National Bank of Omaha’s decision to end its relationship with the NRA. For more than a decade the bank has offered NRA members specially branded Visa cards, but in a tweet the bank said that “customer feedback has caused us to review our relationship with the NRA.” The bank did not respond to multiple inquiries by ThinkProgress asking for a more detailed explanation of its decision. more... https://thinkprogress.org/alamo-national-enterprise-dump-nra-35d326965744/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you can decide where you weren't going to spend your money again anyways. But, truth is, I'm sure their $18/day eco-small rentals will start to see a small uptick on the Ssturday only rentals...provided they offer a coupon.

04nightfire Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 I think all car rental spots should just stop renting cars. There's more deaths involving cars than there are involving guns 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"It starts..." What I don't understand is how the liberals can be so stupid (I can tho). The NRA isn't some corporate conglomerate printing their own money. The NRA is AMERICAN CITIZENS!!!! 90-95% of the NRA income is memberships. They think it's from gun manufacturers. It's another "stupid is as stupid does" scenario. It's like they don't understand when they attack Trump constantly over idiotic shit, they are attacking his supporters and making them stronger. NRA works the same way. Attacking them is attacking gun owners....again, empowering the people that they are trying to put down in their librul fascist movement. It's idiocy beyond almost beyond belief. It just has to be witnessed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
