    I eat Dannon yogurt and have GEICO auto insurance...

    I think certain things trump ideology - like enjoying all natural yogurt and getting good rates on auto insurance - but thanks for the list.

    Unfortunately, the list is somewhat useless without specific citations as to why a particular organization or company is on the list.
    Safety is a good tool for tyrants; no one can be against safety.

    You should send them a couple letters:

    Dear Dannon,
    While at the range firing thousands of rounds of ammo from my collection of rifles, which includes but is not limited to (insert some evil rifles) I regularly enjoy a tasty, between mag change snack of your delicious all natural yogurt.
    Dear Geico,
    Thank you for saving me hundreds of dollars a year on my insurance. With the extra disposable income I now have because of you I am able to spend more time at the shooting range firing my (insert evil rifle). Were it not for you I may have been forced to sell my (insert evil rifle) to pay the higher premiums your competition charges.
    Please help my Baby Kitties and I avoid being homeless.

    Most of these companies donate money to anti gun legislation, If you wish to learn more about each one just look them up on google and read some of the information that is located about them.

    That is a good point. I appreciate the list. While I understand the desire to know more specifics about the organizations, I don't expect someone else to do everything. If it matters to you, take the time to investigate.

    Thanks for the effort!
