Maybe I don't understand the situation right, but with regard to TSA we are talking about a property owner's right to control behavior on their property, right?
The 2A restricts government from infringing on our natural right to bear arms, but doesn't restrict or take away the property owners rights.
People are seeming to complain/act out more about the property owners behavior instead of actual infringements, even in light of the likely fact that this property owner/business is netting more societal support for removeing/preventing govt infringements.
I think that TSA would be wise to improve their carry policy, id reqts for purchases and employee behavior with ideas from this thread, and also support constitutional carry. It seems like that combo could grow their mass market opportunity while also getting support from more experienced and liberty minded folks who clearly are/could be great recruiters to their classes, shop and range.
Completely agree.
What I think the brouhaha is more about is having a "gun shop" not being the best steward for "promoting" 2A rights, and giving the anti-gun folks more fodder to point out saying how even a business, that's in the business, doesnt allow this so why should anyone else?
Then having one of the upper echelon in your company against constitutional carry added even more fuel to the fire that their stance is not very pro2A and more of pro money first.
We can see it within our own community here, those who are here for the good of the community and those who only views us as a means to make money.
We don't run ads with the exception of the site sponsors that care about the community, if they don't care then they don't need to be here, and likely won't ever sign on to do so anyway. We did not make this site to make money off the membership and won't ever be selling the place to be data mined and sold to the highest bidder. All that being said, the free flow of ideas and opinions on both sides (within the rules) won't be censored to fit a narrative.
