Dick's Sporting Goods

[Skeeter]

This isn't about politics to me. This is about humanity.

I think the government should stay out of people's lives. Marijuana being illegal is one of the dumbest laws ever.

 

[jontte]

Exactly. Someone is going to have a rude awakening some day. It may be a hurricane, tornado or something else, but you shouldn't rely on home delivery. Even the stores will be without within 3 days if no transit is running. He really will be eating all veggies then. Grass and weeds probably.

correct if I'm wrong,but during the last hurricane that hit Fl,wasn't there a whole lot of people,more or less screwed and angry 'cause Amazon or something similar couldn't deliver home,when they ordered some "hurrican preps" online?

MJ has to do what in this pow-wow??

 

[jontte]

....aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand suddenly we all lived happily ever after,all criminals went from bad to good,politicians actually started to do good for all of us,all weapons disappeared from the face of the earth and we took hands and sang kumbaya with some flowers in the hair

No idea

 

[Squirtgunsquirter]

The flowers will have to be taped to my head. Can I braid them into my beard?

 

[jontte]

that would look lovely you wouldn't look so intimidating with flowers when you hold hands,sing kumbaya and perhaps take a joint..and sing some more and
watch the beautiful future coming

 

[Squirtgunsquirter]

Yeah I could ride a unicorn under a rainbow drinking chai tea and playing a drum with my feet. Skroter and Tunto could give each other piggy back rides and eat granola while combing each others long flowing hair.

 

[jontte]

that would look lovely
you wouldn't look intimidating any more,when you sit down,hold hands,sing kumbaya,smoke a joint...sing some more..
and watch the beautiful future coming towards you,a future with peace, love, understanding

 

[jontte]

double post,dang...first one went to bit heaven,only to come back later..but only after I re-wrote the darn thing

 

[Squirtgunsquirter]

lol I figured it was something like that.

 

[user 6493]

I don't need a gun to feel like a strong person.
Most gun lovers have a general feeling of powerlessness. They try to mask this feeling with guns. But that just masks the issue and doesn't solve it.

.

lol,,,is that what you think,well I have news for you most guns sit in a safe or gun cabinet most of the time,,,,,and if you think myself or anyone else here feel powerless maybe you should try saying that to our face,,,,just see what that gets you

I don't know of anyone life revolves around the gun here, we have more pressing matter I know I do, We have live stock that needs tending tomorrow and got to uncover the vehicles besides, the Wife been snowed out forced to stay in the house in town for a week due to avalanche issues, those are conversations at home in fact i don't remember the last we talked guns at home, they pretty much out of sight out of mind until target practice comes up then we get the range. I'd had the grandkids out i think early last month. Now i am thinking fishing...

Powerless without a firearm? you would be mistaking and not a small mistake at that though I do feel powerless without my Wife given I can't go and get her unfortunately, up here we are beholding to mother nature.

Edited: grammar

 

[TexasFreedom]

I think several here have the right idea. Skeeter is a liberal, juvenile troll just stirring trouble. Rather than talking, in a moment I will 'report' one of his posts as, well, just a troll. And I'll find the 'ignore' button one more time.

He will get tired of talking to himself. And we don't get that many newbies that he will mislead them. He hasn't done anything yet to get banned from the forum, but he definitely has proven that he is not here to learn and just wants to spout his snowflake SJW ignorance.

Please join me.

 

[Squirtgunsquirter]

Count me in.

 

[user 7704]

Me too, but I have no idea where the in ore button is. I'e never used it.

 

[Squirtgunsquirter]

click on his name anywhere you see it. A black box will pop up. Ignore will be on the top right.

Thanks

 

[user 7704]

Done

 

[Maverick]

Will, I'm an old dog wanting to learn new thing but any more the younger folks ain't wanting teach or have anything new to add to the place but to troll the forum :-/

 

[Proud Prepper]

I have never shopoed there and likely never will. I walked through one once while killing time.

 

[Gazrok]

But there always seems to he the loose cannon who either freak out or are just evil people and use their weapon when it's not actually necessary

Loose cannons will still exist regardless of what weapon is available for them to use. Just look at the mass knifing in China, or the numerous times someone drove a vehicle into a crowd. Outlawing a particular weapon isn't going to stop crazy.

Springfield Armory Severs Ties With Dick’s Sporting Goods Over Gun Control Lobbying

[DrHenley]

Dick's was the only big box sporting goods place in town, but...

Academy Sports is now opening up a new store a block away from Dick's.

Karma's a bitch! LOL

 

[Maverick]

Wish we had Academy Sports out this way, better firearm prices than Cabela's, Sportsman Warehouse and Dick's

I have an Academy about 65 miles away,,some day I am going to go there and check the place out

 

[Maverick]

I ordered online from Academy but they have no store front on the West coast, Cabela's, Bass Pro, Sportsman Warehouse and Dick's is all over out here with inflated prices and that included Gander Mountain when they were still in operations.

 

[DrHenley]

I buy waders and hip boots from Academy, but I have had to buy them en-route to Mississippi when I go there hunting.

I'm sure the tree hugger hikers and cyclists will still go to Dick's because that is apparently who they are pandering to. But hunters and fishermen will have no reason to go to Dick's anymore. Hunters and fishermen spend WAY more money than the hikers and cyclists. Besides, the hardcore cyclists, which are the ones that really spend money on it, go to bike shops anyhow. Hardcore golfers go to real pro shops.

 

[Otterbatcat]

Yeah, Academy must be pretty east based, never even heard of 'em.

I’m actually still fine with Dicks choice to stop selling AR’s. Just like I respect chick filet for their decision to not open on Sunday. The whole point of being in a democratic society is for being able to make your own choices. I may think some choices aren’t the best for profit for the company, but still support their right to decide for themselves.
