anybody still supporting these morons........

The first law of holes, sometimes attributed to cowboy philosopher Will Rogers, suggests, ?If you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.? In other words, don't make a bad decision worse by expanding it, with the hope that you will eventually extricate yourself. The hole will just get deeper. Somebody may want to mention this to #####?s Sporting Goods.

After the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School tragedy, the retailer caved in to pressure from the gun-ban community and began to enact a number of anti-gun policies at both #####?s Sporting Goods and Field & Stream stores. The most egregious of these new policies was the refusal to recognize the Second Amendment rights of adults aged 18-20 by refusing to sell them firearms.

#####?s then doubled down by announcing it would not just remove certain types of semi-automatic rifles from its stores, but would actually destroy its entire stock of these commonly-owned firearms, along with their accessories. Yes, you read that right. #####?s will destroy firearms.

But if anyone who supports our Right to Keep and Bear Arms was still confused about #####?s position on our firearms freedom, a recent article at theFederalist.com should remove all doubt.

The Federalist reports that #####?s Sporting Goods has hired three new federal lobbyists to promote gun control in Congress. Evidently, #####?s has cut ties with a lobbying firm it had used for a number of years to protect its business interests on issues like tax reform, cybersecurity, and patent litigation reform. New lobbyist registration documents state the new lobbyists were hired for ?[l]obbying related to gun control.?

Considering this development, perhaps encouraging #####?s to stop digging is pointless. It's entirely possible that the chain realizes it has irrevocably damaged its image among the pro-freedom community, especially with those who take part in outdoor activities. That is a reasonable assumption, given this latest development. If this is the case, as it appears to be, #####?s new lobbying venture is likely meant to fully embrace anti-gun advocacy at all levels and through whatever means necessary.

So as #####?s continues to develop its anti-gun bona fides by fully embracing a gun control agenda, we note that the retailer continues to stock small shovels and trenching tools in most of its locations. We can't verify whether they outsource the heavier implements needed for the major excavation at corporate headquarters in Pennsylvania.

You'll have to spell it "D1cks Sporting Goods" on this site.

Personally I will never enter one of their stores again.
 
RE: anybody still supporting these morons........

Nope , refuse to shop there for anything ! Which is no big loss to me but really really stupid on their part.

Bought a Easton hybrid Z baseball bat for my 12 year old son from them the other day. Their decision to stop selling any particular model of gun or their decision to destroy inventory had no bearing either way on my decision to buy sporting goods from a sporting goods store.
 
RE: anybody still supporting these morons........

Jeez when I clicked on the link this is what I saw. My first thought was DW has flipped his lid. My second thought was oh what irony. :)

D!cks never has had anything I wanted to buy and I wouldn't go there now. I can honestly say I've never spent a penny there.

Way to support and help finance a company trying to destroy our 2nd amendment rights. That baseball bat is now jinxed. It will destroy your son's baseball career and he will never hit a home run with it. Put a little thought into your future purchases.
 
RE: anybody still supporting these morons........

Too late. He hit a homer his first at bat this season. I'll let you know how he does tonight
 
RE: anybody still supporting these morons........

I make a point to not shop where my values are different than the companys. Put it this way i will never eat HEINZ ketchup again because Al Gores inlaws own it. Dicks sucks in the 1st place let alone their stupid a@@ policys....plus they are way overpriced.
 
RE: anybody still supporting these morons........

I don't want that showing up on my credit card statement.
 
RE: anybody still supporting these morons........

Right after D!cks announcement I took a local 'LL team to buy bats, mitts and helmets. Most wanted to go to Dicks but since I was paying the bill we went to Big 5 instead. $$chingching. Eff D!cks.
