True, but lets not pretend this is a legal question. Given that UPS will ship 8 pound jugs of gunpowder to unlicensed individuals every day of the week and twice on Sunday, I have a hard time believing they have some sort of philosophical objection to guns. (I have personally shipped a gun legally via UPS).

So I'm going to conclude the real issue is fear. Fear of governmental overreach and all the hassles it can bring.

Fair enough. It's their prerogative. Now if they can only find the courage to be honest about that.
