As readers might imagine, the National Rifle Association keeps track of the powerful entities pitted against them in the fight over the right to keep and bear arms. The firearm owners advocacy organization has a specialized department called the Institute of Legislative Action. Recently, the NRA-ILA team compiled and released a list of almost 20 years of anti-gun supporters. If these brands, celebrities and associations want to fight American gun owners, then American gun owners deserve to know who they are.

As the NRA-ILA explains, these organizations and individuals have given money or other direct support to anti-gun organizations and their efforts. In some instances, the corporations simply lent the use of their brand names in a show of support for specific anti-gun campaigns. In one way or another, all have endorsed anti-gun positions.

The above list of anti-firearm individuals and organizations was produced by the NRA and published by The Daily Caller. We understand this list is far from complete and some of the entries are quite old.

Since Whiteout Press prides itself on having readers and subscribers from all walks of the political spectrum, we are publishing this list to inform everyone on both sides of the gun control issue which people, organizations and corporations actively support gun control.
