Boycott anti-gun states

Colorado several years ago passed an amendment to their Constitution which revoked protected status for special groups. Many states and organizations boycotted Colorado products, cancelled conventions and tourist trips, etc.

Gun owners should do the same to states who Handgun Control, Inc. gives an A or B to for gun control. Give that business to the D's and F's instead. http://www.handguncontrol.org/stateleg/reportcard2k.asp
Boycott the following:
Maryland
Massachusetts
Connecticut
Hawaii (hit their tourism HARD!)
and the B team (hit their convention trade)
California
Illinois
New Jersey
New York
Rhode Island

Give the business instead to
Idaho
Kentucky
Lousiana
Montana
Alabama
Wyoming
Montana

I don't like New Jersey either, or Connecticut.

HELP! Im surrounded!

Makes one wonder what the NRA was tinking when they moved into New york where they will be bringing lots of money to with their new store.
If at all, such a conservative pro-gun area for them to bring in business for isnt it.....

I deal in a lot of computer parts and I already avoid anti-gun states. I will not support gun-grabbers financially, directly, or indirectly.

The Bill of Rights is a document of brilliance, a document of wisdom, and it is the ultimate law, spoken or not, for the very concept of a society that holds liberty above the desire for ever greater power. -Me
 
My wife and I have been doing that very thing for some time now. Any trips we plan circumnavigate as best possible any anti-firearm states.
We encourage everybody to do the same.
 
Vacation!!! I live in NY, I cannot afford to go on vacation, got to pay those taxes, have to work to do it.

You might want to consider adding Ohio to that list also. While some of Ohio's laws aren't bad, their stance on refusing to allow CCW is outrageous. Laws in Cleveland, Toledo, Cincinatti, Kent and Youngstown are some of THE most restrictive in the world.
A line to:
Rock and Roll hall of fame.
Wright Patterson AF base.
etc.
Telling them how you would love to visit and spend your tourist dollars, but are not since you can't protect yourself might be in order.

OTOH, I believe I will send something to Nevada gvt and tell them I enjoyed my safe stay there recently. LOL! I shold cc. a copy to Atlantic City and Kansas City Mo. and tell them to shove it! My tourist and casino bucks went elsewhere.

Great idea!
 
I drove around Illinois recently on a trip. On the way home, I drove through it without buying anything. Just trying to be prudent.

The only problem with boycotting the states with the most restrictive gun control is we'd have to stop buying things like - Ruger, Winchester, Colt, Savage, Beretta, Marlin, and even some Remington products made in Ilion, NY. That's just a few of the folks who happen to reside in CT, MA, NY. MD, etc. That's not even to mention that OTHER gun company with the British owners.

Then what?

------------------
If "the people" in the 1st, 4th, 9th & 10th amendments, means "the people", why do some folks think "the people" in the 2nd amendment means "the state"?
 
Plainsman: In the same vein of thought, I can't for the life of me understand why these gun manufacturers remain domiciled in ANTI-GUN states. As far as I know, Ruger is the only one that made a move out of Anti-Gun territory when they expanded into Arizona. As I recall they produce their P-Series auto pistols in Prescott, AZ (?).

My state, Alabama, seems to be successful in attracting other industries (i.e., the auto industry) - so why can't we get Ruger, Winchester, Colt, etc., to expand or move to Alabama? Our politicians are giving away huge tax breaks to attract industry, so why aren't the gun companies coming to our state?
 
Great thread. I avoid Ill. like the plague!
The wife keeps wanting to go to Chicago, but I argue. We went to Louisville this summer instead.

I live in N.E. Indiana and I also avoid Ohio as best I can. My sister is buried there, so some unavoidable travel, and my neices live there, but it is just accross the border from my hometown in Indiana.
