How to Bypass Woke Companies Putting Politics Before Business

By Tom McHale|2024-06-17T21:34:41-04:00February 25th, 2024|

I had an interesting conversation with Dusty Wunderluch of Credova while at SHOT Show 2024. Dusty is in the business of... doing business. Yes, that's precisely what I mean. Lots of folks are becoming sick and tired of companies more concerned with political missions and forcing their social views on others and wondering, "Why can't companies just focus on their business instead of stepping into that mess?

Regulate This

By Tom McHale|2022-08-05T10:31:59-04:00August 5th, 2022|

Once again, the Second Amendment debate is front and center in the news. Whenever people violate the rules of human decency, exposing foundational flaws in our society even a turnip knows will never be fixed with some new law, people scream for action. “Just do something!”Predictably, the “do something” drumbeat points to proposed new gun laws and a challenge to the Second Amendment in principle.
