I haven't for some time (and not for political reasons, they just don't have much I'd be needing), but now....

I saw an interview Wolf Blitzer of CNN was having with some lawyer over this issue of Dick's decision to no longer sell AR-15's.
The lawyer answered Wolf without hesitation, and said he had no problem with Dick's implementing a business decision about what products they chose to sell or not sell. Wolf seemed happy to hear that.
Then he immediately went on to cite Citizen's United and other legal free speech decisions, and said it was no different than Baker's deciding what kind of wedding cakes they choose to sell.
You could see the blood drain out of Wolf Blitzer's face, because he realized that if Dick's could choose to refuse to sell AR-15's, then a Bakery could refuse to sell a wedding cake with two grooms on top. Just another free speech business decision.
Voting for anti-gun Democrats is dumber than giving treats to a dog that shits on a Persian Rug

Only for fishing lures...
Also I live in an area that has a "Field and Stream", which is Dick's version of Cabelas. I'm not sure how many stores they have thus far, but I only know of that one. Great fishing section...

Never did any business with them. Academy Sports is just a few miles away from Dick's, and much more deserving of my business, IMO.

To get to Dick's I have to pass Academy Sports - never make it to Dick's.

As i recall, they pulled the same lame PR stunt after Newtown and it did not last long before they were right back to selling.
Just another corporate slimechain that is liberal to the core.

I may stop at Dick's tomorrow and see if they have closeout prices on AR-15s or AK-47s. I'm sure it will be like the bump stock situation. Sorry, out of stock.

I too seem to remember Dicks doing this anti-assault rifle thing before. Walmart is doing the same. Is it obviously a marketing ploy of some sort? Anyway, they probably have the right to do it. BUT! Do they have the right to not sell guns to 18 and 19 year-olds? That's age discrimination, isn't it? I think that is against the law.
