Dicks to stop selling that nasty AR.

Posted on 02/28/2018 5:10:01 AM PST by Slingwing

Did Dicks make the corporate decision to stop selling the dreaded AR, high capacity mags and change the age to sell a firearm to 21 on their own or were they pressured? At any rate I will not be shopping at Dicks any longer over their stupid heart string tug decision. The AR has never killed a sole or creature without the assistance of a human to make the interaction function as designed.

Oh really? I guess that applies to Field and Stream too, since F&S is owned by Dick’s. Yet another company with no spine knee-jerking to the Left. Let’s see how much camouflage clothing, fishing gear, camping gear, etc., they sell to young Mr. Hogg and his fellow snowflakes.

Let’s see. Dick’s is expected to be intimidated into doing something bold.

Breep fizzle spark. Computer broke.

I hope some 19 year old Sues their asses off.

IF a Gay couple can force a Christian Baker to make a cake for queers, a Citizen of Legal age would be descriminated against if they refused the sale.

NRA should put out a tweet for all NRA members to "call your broker and sell DKS if they hold it. For those risk takers, short it".

It would be nice to see SportsSouth, RSR, Zanders, and other distributors band together and say, "we won't supply you with ANY firearms or supplies".

THAT would shake some big box FFLs up.

I just recently learned that Massachusetts has banned ownership of the AR.Given several recent SCOTUS decisions...*particularly* Caetano v Massachusetts (which was a 9-0 vote striking down a Massachusetts gun law)...I am *very* tempted,as a Massachusetts resident,to try to challenge this law in the Federal Courts.

Of course I don't have the money to pay lawyers tens of thousands so I'd need some help.Perhaps I can sign on with some NRA-affiliated organization and lend my name to an action brought by such an entity.

Do any lawyers out there have any thoughts on my idea?

Dicks can’t stop selling something they never sold in the first place.

Dicks is where the Subaru fags and lesbians go to buy their kayaks. It is certainly not a place to go buy guns and other scary things.

I heard the CEO interviewed on CNN this morning. I knew right away he was a lib.

Dick’s will go the way of Gander Mt. It’s only a matter of time.

Being covered on Varney now. Dick’s also is stopping sales of certain magazines, too. (I think that’s the lingo; I’m not an expert on it.)

Who goes to Dick’s?

They already are being boycotted by patriots, I thought, from the last go around of this crap. So it should only be progressives who have been getting their camping, fishing and boating gear from them and firearm sales should have been nonexistent.

Not just selling.
Dicks is getting on the ban-wagon.
They want to instate another “assault weapons ban” and magazine ban.

They need to hear from us.

I would think you could buy an AR-15 cheaper everywhere else. Dicks is very expensive just buying golf balls. Can’t imagine the upcharge on a weapon.

Our Dicks stopped carrying firearms at all several years ago. No reason for me to go to Dicks anymore.

Dicks should stop selling AR-15’s three times a week. They’d get a lot more news coverage that way.
