Uber just endeared itself with scores of millions of gun owners.
Remember, over 5% of the American population has concealed carry licenses and millions more can carry legally without them in several states.
Concealed carry licensees are better educated, earn higher incomes and are certainly more law-abiding than the average person. But Uber doesn’t want their business.
In an announcement Friday, which they hoped would slide under the radar, they announced a ban on guns in Uber vehicles. Because, you know, that will stop crime!
(Breitbart) – On June 19, Uber announced it has banned both drivers and law-abiding passengers with concealed permits from having guns with them for self-defense while in Uber vehicles.
This announcement comes three months after an Uber driver with a concealed carry license thwarted an attempted mass shooting by pulling his own weapon and shooting a gunman who had opened fire in Chicago’s Logan Square.
…Uber says that “drivers or riders who violate the rule may lose access to the platform.”
