Why Publix Shouldn't Have Tried To Pander To Gun Control Protesters :: 06/04/2018

Publix is a Florida-based grocer known throughout the southeast. They treat their employees well, maintain a wholesome image, and sell what are known to us native Floridians as the best sub sandwiches on the planet. In late May, though, they found themselves arbitrarily thrust into a national gun debate in which they had no stake and seemed to want nothing to do with.

Some prominent Democrats have called for repealing the amendment, and magazine articles have offered elaborate justifications.
