Barf ... and, I'm so looking forward to their reply to mine. This is so outrageous, I'll stop by every Hallmark store and tell them I won't do business with them specifically because of this action.

Mine too. SOS-DD. Good revenge will be sending them condolences on their loss on a card from American Greeetings Card Co.

I was at Wal-Mart the other day. When I entered a WM employee was handing out coupons for 2 free Hallmark cards (Hallmark has a new line they are promoting)
I said in a very loud voice..."I don't want anything from a company that has no regard for the US Constitution"....some other customers asked what I was talking about, so I mentioned Hallmark's active anti-gun and pro-HCI position. Many people gave the coupons back and others dropped them on the floor. The main entrance floor walker came up to me and asked if I was going to cause more trouble....I said "stay the hell out of anti-American politics and I will behave, push this issue and I will write all the newspapers and cause you no end of grief"
The chump apologised and walked away. I'm so glad to live in a rural area

I have confronted these people and I never mention guns.
I have found it very effective to tell reps from anti companies, "I refuse to buy from your company because you are supporting groups that believe in depriving citizens of their Constitutional Rights; I cannot support you as long as you support a police state and try to reduce the civil liberties of minorities and others."
If they say their company would never do that, I say that obviously the company does not want its employees to learn of its hidden policies and political activities, and walk away.
No mention of guns. Let them think about it.

Just called them. Got the entry-level droid to get me slightly higher-level droid who told me they are doing it for the children. I told him they lost a customer and will lose more as I talk to others. Suggested matching donations to pro-RKBA groups.
Probably did not do much good...but what if...
Bastards!

"...for the children...
What do kids have to do with CCW????!!
This is scarey! Its like a mindless religious mantra that you repeat enough times and it applies to everything. You don't have to think. This must have some kind of supra-natural embrace on the synapases
Now if there was a bank account increasing mantra I'd be interested

Tell you what: do something for the children. Find a kind that has yet to learn firearms safety and use and take her out to the range...cover range fees and ammo. That would be doing something for the children.

DC, you are so right. It is scary. Too many Americans don't THINK anymore ... they are just reacting and emoting. It is also dangerous, and I hope people get their heads back on before it becomes irreversible.
