Is this even legal? Can a business ignore state law?

It’s time to start a class action lawsuit - These companies are NOT acting independently to violate our civil rights they are falling in line with an organized attack on America.

They need to be punished. HARD.

No shock that businesses are forced to sell the abortion pill to 13 year old girls without a prescription or adult’s approval.

IMHo, all the places other than Walmart making this sort of announcement aren't making a lot of money from gun sales anyway.

Walmart is the one who may well regret this if they actually have significant gun sales. When Trump gets the changes he wants and sends out boxes of food rather than just ladles of cash Walmart won't have as much coming in every month on the EBT gravy train.

It really depends on what sort of profits Walmart is making from gun sales now and what they lose. Personally, I hope their gun sales go dead in the water and don't recover. One of the few categories of independent businesses still doing well seems to be gun shops.

Watch for Walmart to fight the change over to sending out food rather than sloshing out ladles full of cash.

JMHo & random thoughts

I investigated a bit, and apparently they do sell a few rifles out of one store.

Was kind of surprised that they did it even there, they having made a decision 30 years ago or so, to sell overpriced pseudo-sporting clothes and pseudo-outdoor equipment to Yuppies, rather than high quality stuff to real sportsmen as they did in the early days.

But, of course, the sissies at LL Bean don’t mind living under the blanket of freedom that 18-20 year-olds who serve in the military or as policemen or firefighters provide them. LL Bean can KMA.

How soon until these companies are sued, and by ACLU?

The Freeport, Maine store.

Definitely not a New Jersey store!

I have 2 LL Bean rifle cases and I even have an LL Bean pistol rug (the latter purchased at the Freeport store from their closeout bin -- 30 years ago!) I haven't ever seen LL Bean sell pistol cases in their catalog or website -- ever. They have been virtue signaling since before it became fashionable.

From what I can find, car rental companies in 49 states can refuse to rent to drivers younger than 25 (the single exception is New York). So I don't know why a store couldn't refuse to sell a gun to someone because of their age.

Idiots.

Qx posted a couple of tweets zinging them for their stupidity. History has shown that rising tyranny always kills their earliest supporters FIRST after rising to power. They realize that such useful idiots are too stupid and too trustworthy to support the new regime.

And to think, I bought my first rifle
at the age of 12, from a Sears&Roebuck
catalog.

There is allegedly a rape epidemic on college campuses, and the Left is disarming college-age adult women.

One can make a MUCH STRONGER CASE that age discrimination falls under federal civil rights statues than what gender a dickhead decides to identify with on a particular day.

I say GO FOR IT!
