The left has figured out that it is impossible at the present time to actually get rid of the Second Amendment. It is not going to be successful to use the government to confiscate weapons. They have made the judgment that going after people\u2019s guns using the power of government or the efforts to eliminate the Second Amendment will fail.<\/p>\n<p>And so they are employing new tactics, and they\u2019re not advertising this. They\u2019re not bragging about it. They\u2019re not discussing it. They\u2019re not beating their chests when it succeeds. And the name &#8220;corporate gun control,&#8221; it doesn\u2019t mean that it is all exclusively corporate strategy and behavior. It\u2019s just to distinguish it from government. They\u2019ve given up on the idea of using government to get rid of guns, to find them and confiscate them to get rid of the Second Amendment, and instead they\u2019re using the private sector to do it.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-265228\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-022018-Guns-on-the-Constitution.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-022018-Guns-on-the-Constitution.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/APP-022018-Guns-on-the-Constitution-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>The way they are doing it and the reason why it\u2019s being called corporate is that participating CEOs will take their companies out of business relationships with any entities that support the Second Amendment or donate money to the NRA, have firearms training classes. So if the CEO of the ABC Widget Company learns that one of their prime customers heavily supports the NRA, they will cease doing business with them. They may even get to the point of firing and not hiring employees who own guns, who use guns, or who contribute or donate to the NRA or any other gun rights group.<\/p>\n<p>This is already happening. If a broadcast outfit is requested to carry advertising by a group or company which has ties to guns, gun rights groups or whatever, the CEO can refuse and is refusing the business. The objective is to make it financially painful to support the Second Amendment and gun rights groups. Lending institutions and banks are a big part of this. If you need a mortgage, if you go to a participating &#8212; and there\u2019s not a list of these things.<\/p>\n<p>I mean, they\u2019re very quiet about this. If you go to a lending institution or a bank, you need money for anything, want to buy a house, want to buy a car, on the application form there will be a section about your relationship with guns and the NRA. And if you support the NRA, if you own guns, they will turn down your request for the loan. It\u2019s just beginning, and it\u2019s at the early stages, as I say. George Soros, not totally him, but he\u2019s here at the foundational efforts of it.<\/p>\n<p>It is the result of liberal thinking. They\u2019ve given up on the idea that government will succeed at this, even if they get elected president. They realize that gun owners love their guns too much, they\u2019re too devoted to the Constitution. That isn\u2019t the way to get rid of guns and to get you to give yours up. If you need a loan, if you want to buy a house, if you need money for anything &#8212; who doesn\u2019t? &#8212; then you go to a lending institution, and you have anything to do with guns, they\u2019ll refuse you. Until you get rid of your guns or stop your membership in the NRA.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: You go to a lending institution, and you have anything to do with guns, they&#039;ll refuse you. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":58,"featured_media":265228,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[12,1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 -
