Bowing to the left Publix has pulled all gun related magazines from its stores. Interestingly in my local store it replaced the magazines with several promoting Oprah as a great potential presidential candidate. I plan to try shopping at Publix's competition.

For a moment I was thinking how awesome it was that a supermarket sold magazines.. as in.. ammo feeding devices.

NRA members should leave their old copies of American Rifleman in the magazine section at Publix.

Make sure you tell them, and give us the address so we can tell them.
I am in Wisconsin, but I have shopped there on my travels.

Hmm, not sure what my response will be, we use Publix for about 35% of our grocery needs.
Of course I have never bought any magazine there.

People read magazines? But seriously the day when the interwebs is swept clean of gun sites by liberal cock gobbling CEOS will be a bad day.

I fully understand that a company may do what it wants and this isn't a violation of the 1st amendment.

However, it is high time we took a page from the liberal playbook (the gay cake baking one) and demand that it is illegal for web hosts that use a PUBLIC entity (the internet) to block free speech.

There is precedent there too. A private Mardi Gras krewe is free to keep out black members, but isn't allowed to use public roads. "In 1991 the New Orleans City Council, led by Democrat Dorothy Mae Taylor, passed an ordinance that required social organizations, including Mardi Gras Krewes, to certify publicly that they did not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, gender, disability, or sexual orientation, in order to obtain parade permits and other public licensure."

So if a company wants to use public space, whether literal or electronic, they cannot discriminate against free speech.

I assume you mean "donor", but keep in mind that's the point.

The attack by leftists on FedEx wasn't about guns, it was about some of their execs being Republican donors.  This isn't about guns, it's about hard leftists using a wedge and going after anyone they feel the need to destroy.

As of about an hour ago the Publix in Tequesta still had the usual gun ad rags.

Yes they do - it's easy when you keep legislators in your pockets as political pets.

Hell, they even marry them into their family.

It's not a bad thing.

You now know who to never spend your money with again.

They can cave to protests on social media by people who never shop with them and are targeting them to further an agenda, but they have just potentially lost a lifetime of business from a large chunk of people who have never attacked them in such a way and will now quietly just take their business elsewhere.

That's weird, because I was just in there a couple of days ago and happened to go by the magazine rack, and I noticed that at least a quarter of the magazines were gun rags.

A dead tree can be read by candlelight.  A computer/smartphone/internet router with no power is a brick.

And, yes, I read books, too, and don't own a Kindle.  Nothing like sitting down with a good book, a good cigar, and a good beer.
