Costco stores in Citrus Heights, and Roseville, California, allegedly rejected a $500 donation for the Children’s Miracle Network because the donation came from a gun store.
Townhall.com reports that the donation was originally rejected by a Citrus Heights Costco, redirected to a Roseville Costco, then rejected by the Roseville location as well.
The donation came from the Sacramento Black Rifle (SBR) gun store. SBR “generously gives to the Children’s Miracle Network via the wholesale retailer” and “they get a banner in the store” in return. But this year’s donation to the Citrus Heights Costco was allegedly returned and the SBR banner was removed.
SBR manager Nick Armstrong said he was initially told problems arose after a Costco employee complained. He said he was later told it was a “customer complaint.”

Where is the logic in this world anymore. It’s a donation from a business! Take it and shut the hell up and keep your PC mouths shut because it is getting old fast. If there are not clear and concise rules dictating who can donate or not then keep the damn donation.
SHAME on Costco...
Well, then they won't be wanting a donation from me, either. In fact, the majority of us own and shoot guns, so they just lost a huge donation base.
I guess they have now made "enough" money!
