Hornady Tells State of New York to Pound Sand

Hornady stands up to State of New York

Today, the State of New York did one of the most despicable acts ever perpetrated by any state by asking New York banks, financial institutions and insurance companies to stop doing business with the gun and ammo industry.

While it may not make a difference to New York, Hornady will not knowingly allow our ammunition to be sold to the State of NY or any NY agencies. Their actions are a blatant and disgusting abuse of office and we won’t be associated with a government that acts like that. They should be ashamed.

-Steve Hornady, president of Hornady Manufacturing Company

Hopefully other ammunition manufacturers will follow suit. Also just because the State makes the request doesn't mean New York banks, financial institutions and insurance companies have to follow its demands. Be interesting to see what happens. Local law enforcement may have to restict themselves to harsh language rather than harsh language rather than firearms.
