An Open Letter to FedEx

An interesting letter. And let's be clear - the NRA has done more than many to obstruct attempts to address the blood shed by gun violence. I despise them for it.
With that said, FedEx's statements are quite consistent with their actions and positions. They don't provide discounts based on politics, beliefs, or positions on issues. They provide discounts based on membership in an organization that represents a bunch of customers. NRA membership is not the same as political alignment - it requires membership fees and I know at least one person with a lifetime membership who doesn't support the NRA's politics.
It may be worth noting that while the NRA's deal with FedEx is by definition only available to NRA members, NRA members are not the only people who can benefit from group discounts.
To the author: have you considered the possibility that FedEx might be telling the honest truth in this matter?
