Solar activity decreases over a few years, global temperatures decrease for a few years, atmospheric C02 remains steady... man caused global warming = man caused "not global-warming" (AKA "climate change")

Now another sales quarter has passed, and Dick’s continues to be hurt by its gun control stance. The Washington Examiner reported, “Sales at Dick’s Sporting Goods dropped in the past three months amid backlash against tighter gun-sale restrictions following a mass killing early this year at a Florida high school.”

The Examiner added, “Revenue dipped 4.5 percent to $1.86 billion amid challenges in the company’s hunting business during the quarter through Nov. 3. Sales at stores open at least 12 months – a key metric for the retail industry – fell 6.1 percent compared to the prior year.”

That is a ridiculous comment. What about the people in this area make a living working there? My guess is that you have a government job with full benefits, paid vacation, employer funded pension all funded by the hard working taxpayers. You have absolutely no idea how the private sector works.

Make no mistake, the anti's knew this, talked Dicks into changing their stance and would gladly sell Dicks out knowing our side would push back and this would happen.

Unfortunately, Dicks and some of these other companies could have just said after the FL shooting "we are reviewing our policies and will make a decision in the future." And then let it blow over.

You have every right to spend your money where you like. As long as you don't tell me where to spend or not to spend mine. You guys sure blow a lot of hot air.
