Dick’s has a huge store in the Richmond area, which is closing.

If there was no other place around to buy guns, Dicks might get away with some of their negative 2A rules...but, there are plenty of places to buy guns.

Commercial outlets - who depend on the public to survive - seem to think they are an arm of some socialist government, and can dictate policy and rearrange the Constitution.

Dicks...you’re not THAT famous, you’re NOT the government, and you’re NOT going to be selling near as many guns as you might have in the past.

Boycott them.

Cabella’s sells UA geared towards hunting. How have their sales been, Dick’s?

Perhaps they’ll go out of business?

"back in the 1950s kids did target practice with rifles and arrows and mass murder in school hardly ever happened. Wonder why?"

I went to a two room country school, back in the 50s. We had a strict gun policy: Anyone bringing a gun to school had to unload it, and leave it in the coat room. Part of the reason for this was because there were some in the school who could only get meat for supper if they shot it on the way home.

No one dared to shoot up a school then - there were too many who would shoot back.

You’d think Dick’s Sporting Goods would have learned the lesson of Target, who is only now finally starting to recover from their bathroom policy PR fiasco, only because the improved US economy is driving more customers into their stores in the first place.

This is what happens when afer a generation of children are given "participation trophies" for losing, i.e. they don't know how to cope with and overcome failure ...

Love Under Armour for my boys. Durable clothes that last the entire school year and still look good. Buy them from the direct outlet store.

Dicks can stuff it. Used to buy a lot of things there. Haven’t been back since they made their announcement.

“I haven’t been in a Dicks store in several years and have no intention to go in one in the future, ever....”...…….

Well I have NEVER been in a “Dick’s” store and have the same intentions...…..I DID drive past one though.

Dick's is reaping the rewards of their CEO wading into politics on the side of the leftists. Let them wallow in it. I hope they go bankrupt.

Since they jumped on the Gun Grabber bandwagon I sent them a note telling them MY new policy is that I will never do business with them ever again.

Being Dicks to your customers has consequences.

Dickies, don’t forget your contributions to fund lobbying against the 2nd amendment. Haven’t darkened your door since I learned about that . . . and won’t. This country is better off without you.

Well, well. They’ve finally been forced to admit it.

(Don’t forget the kneeling NFL cretins too. The average Dick’s store is stuffed to the rafters with NFL logo apparel and merchandise.)

Dick's is dead. They don't want our business, hence they don't deserve our business.

Have fun going broke.
