Their stock has lost around a 1/3 of its value since it started this silly anti-gun stance a few years ago. Retail sporting goods is a rough business now, they should've been quiet and taken the gun money. Soccer moms forget, gun people don't, they won't be shopping there much.

Exactly. Dick's has been trying to go to online selling because their retail business is taking it in the shorts, literally, lol. Nike and Underarmor are pushing more sales direct and this is what Dick's makes most money on. You can't sell ammo and guns directly online (you have to ship to a retail store) so this doesn't fit with their survival strategy.

Dick's will fade away, like most retail outlets in the online era. These SJW moves by their CEO are just for publicity. They have a lot bigger problems on the horizon.

They really took a stance alright, those trail-blazers of peace.  ::)

That will keep them out of the law-abiding, legally registering, customers hands.
Those Chicago gang-bangers are in trouble now, will need to go elsewhere for their guns & ammo.  ::)

When I was a kid, I wanted to buy all the cigarettes at the corner store when I grew up, to destroy them.

Fantastic 8-year-old logic, and would not result in more cigarettes being produced or anything.

Wish I owned a newspaper and a corner store where you grew up.
