[QUOTE="Uncle Jimbo, post: 249531, member: 3880"] I can't and won't try to dispute that. It's been several years since Benchmade has donated to Republicans. However, in your posted example, Martin Heinrich of NM is a hunter and has been a staunch supporter of hunters and public land access in New Mexico via the HUNT Act. He also worked with Ryan Zinke of the Trump administration and has worked with Richard Burr (Republican) from North Carolina on similar sportsman issues. Doesn't seem like an anti gun or anti hunting politician to me and that may be why Benchmade would want to support someone like him who promotes and protects our rights to hunt and fish.

Not all Reps are good and not all Dems are bad. Political parties and the blind loyalty to each party is destroying this country. Very few look beyond the R or the D and usually suffer confirmation bias when seeking information. Both parties can and will screw us if we blindly follow. I've been screwed too many times by blindly following the Reps so now I put my faith in God and not any one political party. [/QUOTE]
