Boycott of the Eastern Sports and Outdoor show

[shadster]

There is a major grass roots effort to boycott the Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show. Reed Exhibitions is not allowing any "Military Style" guns or high capacity clips to be displayed or sold. Not even brochures or advertisement. Many vendors and "expert guests" from the industry have joined the boycott to take a stand for second amendment rights granted by the Constitution.

It is understandable that the show is a major source of business for many in the fishing community. In light of how the state government of New York used knee jerk politics to hoodwink its law abiding gun owners I would like to see those who agree to join the effort and take a stand right along with the thousands already up and standing for their rights.

too bad, she has a great rack!!!!! in her hands.

All kidding aside, its an important movement even though the fishing community will get hurt fighting this one, hopefully some good will come from it.

NRA Withdraws from Eastern Sports & Outdoors Show

http://www.nraila.org/news-issues/news- ... h.facebook

[hooknup]

Just curious,

Did Bass Pro Shop withdrawal?"

Anyone know?...

[RodBuster]

Bass Pro Shops had previousely (before the weapons restrictions were announced) withdrawn because of some "parking issues". That is what i read on another site.

[hookum]

NRA pulling out is HUGE... Reed could be done after the dust settle's.. They also do the SHOT show and have thumbed their nose at sportsman... MANY are not happy... Nice to see everyone comming together on this boycott..

[skipper19]

NRA should go IF the show blows away. Hold a press announcement in the bare parking lot.

[ Post made via Android ]

[Shorthanded]

three out of the four primary sponsors pulled out (Cabelas, Outdoor Channel, Comcast) leaving only the activist liberal company Progressive Insurance remaining

[FX]

For those interested, you can get updates of who is dropping out of the show at this site:

SHOW HAS BEEN CANCELLED!

[Shorthanded]

Yes a battle has been won. Now the war begins as Ms. Diane Feinstein introduces into the Senate a proposal to ban assault weapons including ARs, handguns and shotguns.

[on the lam]

Below is part of the statement released on the shows web site effectively cancelling the show, but whats interesting is that they still don't get it!! as stated below. It says that their position "directly effects a small percentage of the exhibits and products"??? Well thats not the point stupid!! Infringement on our rights is whats important, whatever booth you visit!!

From their statement...

"It is unfortunate that in the current emotionally charged atmosphere this celebratory event has become overshadowed by a decision that directly affected a small percentage of more than 1,000 exhibits showcasing products and services for those interested in hunting and fishing."

But then this is to be expected from a corporation based in the UK...
