I see you smiling at Scat but that can't be possible.

Please, my friends call me "Scatty"...

It doesn't matter what they did in reality. Because they made a stupid statement, it will forever be interpreted as punishment.

I see nothing at all stupid about the statements they made.

I understand. You more aligned with AAA's manner of thinking than mine. You can I can disagree every so often and the world won't end

No, your ignore function is preventing you from assessing the situation accurately. Lot of that going around in public dialogue.

Ah, gotcha. Thanks - thought hell might freeze over there for a second.

It WAS punishment. Let's see how it works out for them.

Then dlta WAS punishing the nra. Let's see how that works out for them, too.

You see it all the time on Facebook or other social media where someone, right out in the open with their full name, has to get their point heard no matter what the consequences and then ends up getting fired, or loses a contract or sponsorship, etc.

People should be able to say what they want without fear of reprisal but the fact of the matter is we don't live in a tolerable society that allows that. So people who want to speak their mind or have dialogue have to (or rather should) go incognito.

People should be held to account for what they say, otherwise what they say is meaningless. And if they do so in a broadcast manner, then they should be more circumspect. Much as I despise Trump, Griffin did something stupid, and she is now paying for it. As it should be. If you expect your voice to be heard, then expect to hear the voice of others.

Delta is a private company exercising its rights of speech and conduct. You, as a consumer can respond accordingly. Georgia's legislators are small-minded men who sought reprisal. They will get what is coming to them.

And the Lieutenant Gov? is running for the top spot so is likely getting NRA or affiliated funding?

It is as 'swamp' dirty as it gets I suspect.
