Oh boy. If there is anyone dumb enough to have not dumped their stock in this company already, this might be the kick in the butt they need.

I wonder if they have any idea at all how many pissed off customers will never shop in their stores again. Dick’s was my go to place for golf supplies. No more.

Socially Sick. And a management very damaging to the company. ( and destroying inventory ? Very wasteful, illegally so imho, Of shareholders’ assets. Far far far far better to donate it to schools so that More students may get good firearms operating and safety training and participate in shooting sports and competitions 😁and at least get the tax deductions for the merchandise)

Went in one of those stores once a long time ago and didn’t go back. The atmosphere was too queer.

I’ve already not purchased two items from there. Many more to come. They are dead to me.

The guns belong to those people. They are free do what with them as they wish.

And I am free to think those people are ignorant, hypocritical a$$holes for destroying them.

It’s a private company. They can run the thing into the ground.

I’m sure if the government confiscates all citizens’ guns, they will do just as good a job at keeping illegal guns from flooding the border as they did keeping booze out during Prohibition, illegal drugs from crossing the border, and even illegal aliens from crossing.

I wandered in to a "Field and Stream" store ... was going to buy some gun stuff until I realized that it was simply an extension of the "Dicks" store next door.

Walked out.

Did not buy.

Eff 'em.

Cabelas and Bass Pro are not coming down with the stupids.

I still think some shareholders should file suit to stop them. They’ve destroying profits that would benefit shareholders.

We generally don’t consider it duplicate if more than 4 hours have gone by. Especially if there is activity on the thread.

Don’t got one, better get one. Won’t take but a couple more incidents and they’ll no longer be available.

How does a FReeper who just logged on to catch up on the news, search for an article/ news story that they have no prior knowledge of?

>>>”I wonder how shareholders feel about their investment dollars being destroyed?”
