Delta will just have to stay there and take it. Well played, Georgia.

Virginia should offer them some tax incentives to move to a more sensible location with a more educated workforce.

The level of investment (both time and money) that would be required to make that even close to feasible is not a wise investment for the Commonwealth.

Meh Amazon has already said they're sticking with the NRA so I'd say they're gooderly with State of Georgia's stance on knee jerk reactions on the part of businesses.

Delta lost $38 million a year in tax breaks on jet fuel.

I just love Delta's quote:
Delta did not respond to a request on Thursday for comment about the Georgia tax bill. In a statement on Saturday, the carrier said it supports the Second Amendment, which grants Americans the right to bear arms, and that it wished to stay neutral in the emotionally charged debate.
Well too late now buttercups you already stepped in it.

haha, great back peddling. Too late, Dicks missed out on a Plano box purchase tonight and will miss out on another one tomorrow. Don't just, I just had a batch of custom lures come in and need somewhere to put them. 1 Plano just wasn't enough.

Yeah, pissing off their customers on both sides of the issue over 13 people (no, really) who used the NRA discount sounds brilliant.

Hope the chick in front of you on your $89 Jet Blue flight into RVA to see your kin folk doesn't recline her seat into your knees. :lol:

Airlines today are no different than a greyhound bus - the only difference is that you don't get groped by an obese TSA agent before you get on a greyhound.

Yep. Because those rednecks can afford a $1500 rifle, $800 scope, and $400 case, which they carry around in their $50,000 pickup truck.

But they can't afford a $350 airplane ticket.

Maybe you should do a little research before making asinine proclamations.
