No company that breaks deals based on outside opinion can be good. If a person's word is dependent on the opinions of someone else (and their Twitter thumbs) that person is a very weak individual with no grit. Such a person would also lie and cheat and can be expected to lie and cheat everyone for some perceived gain.
I may have to rent a car in the coming months but the only game in town are Enterprize and Hertz. If I have to rent from these hypocrites* I will advise with a written letter that I am making a donation to NRA in their name equal to the rental cost amount. *I think Enterprise owners are hypocrites because I suspect they live in gated communities and are protected by armed people while opposing NRA which defends the rights of the poor to arm themselves. |

Only like 14 people ever used the Delta discount program. I wouldn't want to touch the NRA with a 10 ft pole either. Its the smart move to remain neutral and get away from them.
This whole boycotting companies because of their stance on a political issue just seems like a bad idea in general. people boycotted chick file because the owner donated to cause they didnt like, people boycotted startbucks because they change the color of a cup? and now you are banning delta because they aren't giving a discount to nra members (something you never used unless you were one of the 14)? boycott, fire, boycott, fire, protest. That is the right and left these days. why not boycott companies that arent made in america? you know something that would actually give us jobs? |

As ATN082268 mentions this is a pretty far reaching subject that involves a lot more then many think. I won't support Delta or any business or politician that tells a lie. For instance, lets say they do go with further gun control and in 6 months there is still another school shooting what do you think will happen? I can tell you they'll go for gun control 2.0. I don't feel that gun control for law abiding citizens works, I've seen it first hand for 69 years.

Nimrod 2 you are going to love Emirates. We went to Africa last summer (both ways on Emirates) and the service was fantastic and very professional. Glad you wrote to Delta, especially stating your background.
