(10,495 posts)Las Vegas will go on to hosting the biggest gun shows in the nation right on schedule. There has be a lot of talk about the NFL players disrespecting our symbols by the Right. Yet they have no shame in disrespecting the victims of this gun violence that never stops. It hurts to know that this actually benefits the gun industry sales every time a nut decides to go out by killing innocent people.
I believe a massive boycott of Las Vegas would be in order until they stop hosting these gun shows which will disrespect the victims and their families. All of the organizations, other industries and trade associations need to boycott their conventions in Vegas and host them somewhere else in America until Las Vegas decides not to host guns shows anymore. This is a big country with lots of great places to hold a convention other than one who will be business as usual for the gun nuts.
Been in Vegas only twice but doubt I'll go again. (Even saw Elvis back in the day and Clapton.)
You've made a very good point about their damn gun shows.
