Hi Everyone-
Political Correctness knows no bounds....
My firm has a "Use of Internet Policy" that forbids staffers from accessing the Web for reasons not related to work. This includes an automated response for pointing the browser to "inappropriate" web sites.
Guess what? Anything with the word "gun" or "firearms" in it is now on a big no-no. Not only that, if you try to go to a mainstream site like Remington, Winchester, S&W, etc, you get the dreaded "Use of Internet Policy" statement. Violations are likely published at the HQ building for review by management.
In the mood to push my luck, I tried going to places like Heckler & Koch, Vang Comp, The Wilderness, and other sites that do not specifically mention those naughty words. No problem at all there. Time will tell.
Here's what rubs me the wrong way. If I'm sitting at my desk during lunch and want to research DECENT and LEGAL information, we shouldn't be lumped-in with pornographers!
How long before "TFL" is added to the list?
Perhaps we need a site that will allow us to access 2nd Amendment & firearms information from an innocent-sounding place like Flowers4Boss.com!
