CCRKBA ADDS CHICAGO WHITE SOX TO ‘DON’T FEED THEM’ LIST

BELLEVUE, WA – The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms has added the Chicago White Sox to its list of businesses and entities on the “Don’t Feed the Gun Prohibitionists” list for supporting gun control organizations.

In a message posted on “X” June 5, the White Sox revealed they were supporting Everytown for Gun Safety and other gun control groups on “Gun Violence Awareness Day.”

“The White Sox just struck out with a lot of fans, judging from the reaction we’re seeing on social media,” said CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb. “We’re adding the team to our list of organizations which no longer deserve the support of gun owners in Illinois, or anywhere else.”

The current list contains some 200 businesses and their CEOs.

“When we started this project,” Gottlieb recalled, “we were sometimes surprised, and in some cases disappointed, at some of the businesses we placed on the list. We discovered several brand name businesses and corporate leaders who evidently have a quiet agenda to limit gun rights guaranteed by the Second Amendment. The listing is our way of letting current and potential patrons have the knowledge about what their hard earned dollars may actually be funding.”

Businesses and professional sports teams, and the people who own, them can support whatever kind of philosophy they want,” Gottlieb observed, “and gun owning consumers and fans can likewise not spend any money with those entities. Let the marketplace decide. Over 100 million American gun owners represent a sizeable consumer bloc, and they will decide on their own where to spend their money.”

Reaction on “X” from sports fans already indicate the White Sox dropped the ball on this one. In terms the team ownership should understand, they have no runs, no hits and one big error.

“The White Sox just threw a spitball at their gun-owning fans,” Gottlieb said. “So far as we’re concerned, they’re swinging with cork bats.”
