jOe likely has had a new straight jacket fitted. Hasn�t had time to wiggle out of it just yet.

Oh,oh

Well, this thread took a predictable turn. There have been over 40 posts made since there has been any mention of the original topic of locking guns and prohibiting function checks at Cabelas/Bass Pro Shops. But remember, some say I am the one who is the cause of the majority of thread diversions here.

It started with dla's(sic) silly conjectures intended to use everything but facts to convince folks that it wasn't Liberalism that was behind Dick's decision to stop selling AR15's first, and now all hunting gear.

The later assertion by someone else that AR15's were probably not profitable and were probably on the chopping block long before is just as silly. The decision was made while Obama was in office, and AR15's were selling like air conditioners in a heat wave. Manufacturers couldn't meet demand and semi-autos and the ammunition to feed them was selling out everywhere at inflated prices. This situation got even worse, (or better for manufacturers and sellers), after Liberal Democrats threatened new gun restrictions after Newtown.

Dick's Sporting Goods has been in business since 1948, and has sold guns and hunting gear since the beginning. Isn't it funny that it took all these years, up until the 2013 Newtown shooting, to discover that guns and ammunition and hunting gear is not as profitable as clothing? Hunting has always been more seasonable, with higher sales in the fall and winter months. But guys who came to Dick's for guns and gear before and during hunting seasons then were more likely to come back and buy golf clubs, fishing lures, and tennis balls in spring and summer. I'd also bet that Chinese golf shirts are more profitable and move faster than expensive clubs. But the observations that kids just don't participate in any outdoor activities anymore should mean that Dick's and Cabelas would be much smarter to stop selling golf gear or tennis racquets, and just start selling Nintendo's, PlayStation's, cell phones, and virtual reality goggles.

Actually, when you enact a Liberal Left policy to stop selling certain guns, and shooters and hunters realize that you don't really like them, they begin to shop elsewhere. The natural result is that they also no longer buy your shotguns, bolt action rifles, ammunition, duck calls, or hunting coats. Some here would have us all forget that many sportsmen started to boycott Dick's after their Liberal CEO decided to stop selling AR15's. I haven't set foot in a Dick's Store since then, and never will. Shooting and hunting was a profitable part of Dick's game since 1948. They literally shot themselves in the foot by enacting a Liberal policy. Whether they can prosper after driving away many of their former customers remains to be seen. I won't help them win.

I noticed jOe is no longer listed as a user here. Probably another short term suspension...Geo

Your right.

Then we have this foolishness:



King is still on his crusade to convince everyone that we must all remain as friends in one Big Tent of gun owners and shooters.

He wants everyone to forget that it is people like him that support the Liberal Left politicians who are the greatest threat to our guns and our sport.

None of you would hire a known pedophile to babysit your kids or grandkids. None of you would bring termites into a wood framed house. But King wants you all to believe that it is OK to support politicians with 100% anti-gun voting records. He wants you to embrace him and his kind so they can more easily stab us all in the backs. He wants you to say it is OK to vote for the man or woman who is most likely to gut the 2nd Amendment.

EDIT: New Zealand had Universal Background Checks and Universal Gun Registration. That didn't stop the mass shooting in Christchurch. Guess what's coming next for gun owner there? It won't be a repeal of ineffective Universal Gun Registration.

Right again keet. Not sure why anyone should post anything more on this thread as anyone else's comments are incorrect.
New 'off topics' titles should always end with....just give us the definitive answer keet
Not sure why Dave just doesn't give you your own forum, that way all of us here can just ask you the question... and you can give all of us the right answer.... eh?

dla(sic), do you see what you are doing, or are you too far gone?

As far as you are concerned, no matter what I post, it is wrong. Always have been, always will be wrong. Not only wrong, but mentally sick too. You even have your fictional Psychology prof and his students to back you up in that assertion.

So should we ask you the same question? Should Dave just give you and King your own forum to always give us the right answer, and lock that forum to any opposing thought? It seems like that's what you and the Libtards here all want... eh?

Like it or not, it isn't Republicans or Conservatism that is behind Cabela's/ Bass Pro Shop's policy to lock triggers and prohibit function testing of firearms. You were the one who brought up the Terminator scenario, and possibility of crippling lawsuits. It isn't Conservatives who wish to hold corporations responsible for the unpredictable acts of a mentally ill killer. That comes from Liberal Left anti-gunners.

But you and King can't stomach the truth.

Your right. Fictional.... no. You are a great internet specimen apparently.

Again you run away from my questions and the truth dla(sic).
