    Good for S&W, I'm sure that $125 million went a lot further in TN than it would have in the Northeast.
    Article started off fairly, then predictably, trailed off to useless bilge. So 5 of the biggest arms manufacturers took in a billion dollars between them, over a ten year period, and the tone of the article suggests we should be alarmed.
    What was Nvidia's intake last week? How 'bout Amazon, Microsoft, or Apple?
    I would suggest that any of these corporations are capable of inflicting much greater harm on civilization than a quintet of gunmakers.

    The writers just can't keep their bias from creeping into everything they produce, even an innocuous blip about a company opening a new plant.

    Just sucks our state doesn't go after the gun manufacturers to relocate here
    Manufacturers tend to build plants/factorys where there already is a good core base of employable people living close by.
    Hence like the new can plant in Muncie or the battery plant being built in Kokomo.
    And citys like Alexandria that have a few hundred acre business park that has nothing but corn and beans being produced on it.
