Here is a list of anti-Second Amendment Organizations.
Anti-Gun Companies and Organizations
This is a list National organizations and Companies that have taken an anti-gun stance either through statements or actions.
The list is not complete by any means and may be a bit dated. Still worth sharing though.
Some notable misses are Dick’s Sporting goods, Bank of America, Citibank, and other more recent occurrences.
ANTI-GUN NATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS
The following organizations have lent monetary, grassroots or some other type of direct support to anti-gun organizations. In many instances, these organizations lent their name in support of specific campaigns to pass anti-gun legislation such as the March 1995 HCI “Campaign to Protect Sane Gun Laws.” Many of these organizations were listed as “Campaign Partners,” for having pledged to fight any efforts to repeal the Brady Act and the Clinton “assault weapons” ban. All have officially endorsed anti-gun positions.
