I had not realized that anti-NRA sentiment was rising so fast, as this mail from Color of Change demonstrates:
Chubb, the world’s largest publicly traded property and casualty insurance company has cut ties with the NRA!
This decision comes one month after Color Of Change partnered with Sybrina Fulton, Mother of Trayvon Martin, and Guns Down to launch our #MurderInsurance campaign demanding Chubb and Lockton Inc. to stop doing business as usual with the NRA’s Carry Guard insurance program. Chubb executives announced their divorce from the NRA in the wake of the tragic high school shooting in Parkland, Florida where 17 children were killed and hundreds more were traumatized.
I suspect it was more than moral outrage, as turning the United States into a virtual war zone would have negative consequences for most insurance companies. Still, kudos to Chubb for sending a message to the NRA – and its own clients.
