Unfortunately, Senator, the lies and mistruths you tell your robotic Obama-voters, don’t work on the bottom line of business and their right to pursue that business making products that are affirmed under the second amendment.
When you infringe on their right, and the rights of individuals to make, own and keep arms by proposing universal background checks, licensing, registration, inspections, banning and confiscation they will take all actions still legal to change the environment.
You should also know that when the “all actions still legal” avenue is closed, you will reap the whirlwind.
I would make this estimate. By 2016, at least forty weapons-related companies (to include ammo companies)...will have made the move to Texas or Mississippi. To add enticement...if both statehouses would add a tax credit of $5k for each employee that the company wants to bring....it’d probably ensure a great deal of high-quality employees come along with the company.
My advice for all states. When you come to the high-stakes poker table....losing comes in various shapes and sizes. You may not contemplate the real losses until the game is over....you’ve gone home, and found the house gone, and only the dog-house remaining.
When you have a quiet little company doing five million a year in sales, and generating a fair amount of jobs, and taxable income for a state....the last you want to do...is challenge them to leave your state. Everyone loses in a case like this.
