9. Marriott under pressure for anti-gun trick, recants anti-gun policy!
**************************************************
Marriott infuriated thousands of gun owners during the NRA convention
a couple of weeks ago, when they accepted money from gun groups like
Grassroots North Carolina, then posted "No guns" signs. That was
despicable and put thousands of gun owners at legal risk under North
Carolina law.
The good news is that because of pressure from gun owners, led by
Grassroots North Carolina, Marriott is now removing their anti-gun
signs NATIONALLY!
Paul Valone is the President of Grassroots North Carolina (you will
