True that, but lighters are good for many things from campfires to barbecues. I have a zippo anyway just because of the durability. That and I like to support a company that is here in PA.

I checked on snopes.com and on truthorfiction.com, and I could find nothing to support or discount the claim.

It sounds a little hokey to me.

Hey everyone, I got an email back from bic on this subject. This is what they wrote:

We have received your e-mail.

Despite what you might have heard, BIC has not been an active party in the backing of any type of gun control legislation.

We hope we have been of some help to you in this matter.

Sounds cool to me. I guess I kinda answered my own question on this one.
