Re: Boycott Benchmade

As this thread has raised my awareness, I have decided to boycott all products from Iran and Afganistan.

Re: Boycott Benchmade

Right. After the fact protests are without meaning or value. At my work there is a PAC that gives to both parties. I will not patronize or support the meetings, even though I am expected to being in a managerial position. There is also AIPAC that was recently denigrated by the traitorous junior Congressional rep from MN. Because AIPAC supports both parties, I avoid supporting AIPAC as well. Their argument is that we need a voice on both sides. My position is that I will only support the side that exhibits values similar to mine. YMMV.

Or an Android phone by Google.

This by itself isn't anti 2a, but it brings other things about the company to light. See my previous post.

edit to add: And regardless of any of this discussion, it was a stupid PR move to have yourself photographed destroying guns as requested by the police (lawfully or otherwise) and posted to Facebook. Here conspiracy theorists -- have some material!
I understand your position. I have never owned a benchmark product. I just don't care for them, but I don't agree with calls for a boycotts such as this. :tiphat:
Full boycott is probably premature, yes. But it does shine a light on them for sure. Maybe the light will encourage them to solidify their support for the 2A a bit more.
:tiphat: to you too, sir
I agree with the sentiment. I am not going to put them on my naughty list. They're doing as their asked, and to be fair, if their stuff is high enough quality to decimate firearms, that's showing something for their quality. Just because some of them donate to the Democratic party doesn't mean anything to me. Anti-2A is not the party's only stance. Until someone with authority or clout in Benchmade come out with a truly anti-2A statement, I'm not going to think of them any differently.
