Dick's Sporting Goods loses firearms businesses after gun control push

So are the gun owners. BTW how did Occupy Wall Street work out for you?

 

Good, sell your product there if you wish

 

Most serious people here have something within easy reach in their kayak or canoe. While it may be in a dry bag in a yak, that don't hold true in a canoe. Even some cyclists pack here (hit me I'm gonna hit back).

 

they are doing just fine

 

how did the tea party work out for you?

 

many do, don't sell your stuff there if your upset they are not selling ar-15's to 18 year olds

 

I think that was the basis of the story

 

nah, jus ta bunch of gun nutters upset ar-a5's not sold to teenagers anymore there

 

Dick's can easily make up lost revenue selling Prius batteries and Birkenstocks.

 

Note to Balto. Dicks still sells assault style compound bows and arrows with very pointy ends. The kind that people use to shoot deer and other furry woodland creatures and bring them home for dinner.
Then you can step two counters over and pick up a great hunting knife to skin them with and make a fur coat and hat for your husband/wife/alphabet or significant other.
See, the gun makers may cause them trouble in the short run but over time, nobody licks our Dick's.

 

It was about gun manufacturers pulling their product out of Dick's.
You're welcome

 

Where's Hillary again?
Pennsylvania ave?

 

Legally recognized adults.

 

that need ar-a5's at 18 years old? why do they need to get them so easy, why not complain they do not sell them at walmart? or heck... Amazon.com

just like machine guns and dynamite, ar-a15's should be harder to get

and not doing business with a place cause they wont sell ar-15's is just silly

 

tea party had nothing to do with Hillary, the tea party is no more, have not seen one tea party recently, they went back into the hole they came out of

 

They set the stage, even if they've since been coopted by whoring neocon progressives

 

Simple semi auto action verses fully automatic and explosives? Hyperbole much?

 

the majority of mass shooting are more of what is a concern, not someone hunting, unless they are hunting endangered species



Trump has the GOP's tail



Trump coming for your guns, only the rich should have guns I guess

 

The free market speaks again!

 

SANE people are paying close attention to how close this country is to a civil war. SANE
people know the corrupt socialist democrats are very close to taking over this country especially due to having established laws that don't apply to them. SANE people know they're striving to remove the 1st and 2nd amendments only giving voice to THEIR party and silencing speech of all others. SANE people know they control nearly all media agencies who are biased reporting only the BS propaganda they want people to hear. SANE people know our founding fathers created the 2nd amendment for the sole purpose of citizens defending themselves in case the government goes rogue. SANE people know bringing a handgun to a fight where automatic rifles are used by gangs or rogue government forces would be akin to wielding a butter knife. Lastly, SANE people know if not automatic rifles, cars, bombs, poisons, and several other catalysts could be used to kill mass amounts of people because it isn't the tool used but rather the motive behind it.

 

the tea party was a fake movement, some far right republicans fell for it

 

that it does, Dick's is doing fine and they are free to sell or not sell ar-15s if they want too

 

It's disingenuous to claim an AR-15 is a "simple auto action" without acknowledging the destructive aspect the .223/5.56 cartridge has on living tissue.

And no, I do not believe an 18 year old needs that kind of firepower just because he's an "adult".

 

The only element of the government I see trying to limit the 1st amendment, and the freedom it grants the press, is the President of the United States of America.

Strike One.

And yet, Fox News remains the most watched "news" network in the country.

Strike Two.

Emphasis mine.

This is patently false. The 2nd amendment was designed to ensure that absent a standing army, this nation could defend itself in the event of an invasion by a hostile army, all of which would be armed.

Strike Three.

 

Destructive aspect? Such as? Is there a cartridge that doesn't have a destructive aspect on living flesh? Maybe you'd prefer people switch to the AR-10 and shoot 7.62 instead?
