Dick’s Sporting Goods has reportedly retained several lobbyists to urge lawmakers to take action on gun control, months after restricting gun sales in its stores.
The sporting-goods chain is working with three lobbyists from the Glover Park Group to take on the topic, Bloomberg reported Thursday, citing a disclosure form filed late last month.

I wouldn’t spend a dime in this store. This should cause a full on boycott of Dicks sporting goods.

The “blue wave” is the wave of liberal stupidity against the Constitution.
Maybe Dick’s can sell enough soccer balls to survive, LOL.

Agreed, selling overpriced polyester work-out gear to liberals is not a good business model.

I bought a lot of exercise equipment and a couple of kayaks from them, back before all of this. I’m done.

Dicks Sporting Goods is on the fast-track to nothing.
Maybe they can sell camo-braclets for a buck to the SJW’s.
If I had DSG stock, I’m selling now.
