So the guy says “Well I think it’s definitely a factor, and it’s nothing that we didn’t anticipate,”

Really, he anticipated they would end up closing stores but did it anyway? These guys are way too smart for me.

I refuse to enter their store.
They oppose what I am, so I oppose them withholding dollars.
It may take a while but consumers are always right.
Dick’s needs to rethink gun policy and no matter what they wish corporately there are people who spend money on their favorite gun hobby, so Dick’s is a loser ultimately.

Local box store Fred Meyer (WA area) quit selling guns because of, you know, LV and all those other shootings. They figure they don’t want to add to the carnage - they were always high priced anyway. Did away with ammunition too.

Don’t make stupid business decisions that alienate your customer base.

They don’t deserve to stay in business. There are plenty of other places to go for outdoor stuff.

Runnings is a GREAT replacement.

Didn’t shop there often, but will never shop there again.
Oh I did buy a shotgun there.

You have many options to shop at. Bass Pro, Cabellas or Academy Sports. Dick’s really shot themselves in the foot😆.

Shareholders should be able to sue management, they are making personal decisions and not the best decisions on behalf of the owners.

Only time I’ve bought from them was about 6 or 7 years ago when they had a sale on .22 bricks. Haven’t been back since.

"Moral of the story: Don't be a dick."

I also think it could be said: don't be a Jeb {Bush!}

In case you don't know, it was Jeb Bush, who raised over $ 150,055,000 million dollar's, and actually said he didn't need the base of the Republican party. Gee, I wonder just how that worked out for old Jeb.

See: http://time.com/money/4231669/election-2016-money-spent/ Presidential hopeful Jeb Bush, the former Florida governor, suspended his campaign Saturday night (February 20th, 2016) after a crippling defeat in the South Carolina primary.

Bush had raised more than $118 million through the Right to Rise Super PAC and about $32 million directly through his campaign, ... An additional $55,000 came from Millennials Rising, another conservative super PAC.

$118 million+$32Million+$55,000.00 =$150,055,000 million dollars = LOSER.

I boycott the Dicks entirely since they knuckled under to the Commies, and I buy enough to notice.
