No one should be shopping at Dick's.   Why support a business that hates you and your values?

Shame!

X2 We need to stop patronizing  those liberal corporations that hate conservatives and the 2nd amendment as well as all our other conservative values. They understand $'s and the things that effect their bottom line,
especially when when that effect is negative.

X3.  I won't set foot in Dick's either. 

Just to clarify why, about 2 years before Dick's stopped selling guns and ammo all together, their CEO and Board of Directors decided they were going to institute a policy that you had to be 21 to buy a gun at their stores.  Our local Dick's store had a young man, that was 20 years old, working in their guns and ammo section.  He couldn't buy a gun at the store but corporate policy allowed him to sell guns and ammo and process the necessary paperwork for what Dick's sold in that store.  He immediately resigned and went to work for a local outdoor outfitter 2 blocks away.  Since they have completely done away with their hunting related products, I say Good Riddens!

They were the only place I could find a pouch I wanted, I still did not buy it from them. I had a guy try to tell me it was only two stores that no longer sell the AR-15's and that did the anti gun stuff, I do not believe that from all I read and think he was just saying that because his wife was a higher up for Dick's Sporting Goods.

Won't catch me in that store or buying anything online. They don't much care for people like us.

Dicks in Waterloo Iowa sells NO hunting equipment and NO fishing equipment.
No reason for me to shop there.

Don't forget that field and stream is the same store under a different name and they will receive no business from me.

Interesting, i was not aware that Cabelas/Bass Pro is boycott worthy. 

Dick's went over to the dark side no question but as far as i know, Cabelas/Bass Pro still support the Bill of Rights.

I would stop shopping there, but that means I would have actually had to start shopping there.    So I figure I was just ahead of the game.

It's funny the same people talking all this crap will gladly log on to Google or any liberal owned social media and give them ad revenue every day.

I never liked Dick's to begin with, but I do like their online flash sales on trail cameras. Thanks for sharing the deal

Sorry 3bailyey3 for your being called anything derogatory on this forum.  This is a great forum and we all need to get along. I know you were just trying to pass along good information to your fellow OG members. Maybe I made a mistake getting this whole thing started but I am very passionate about the 2nd Amendment and cannot tolerate any individual or corporation who wishes to abolish or diminish it in any way. I believe in the right of all American citizens to own firearms in order to protect themselves, their families, their property as well as their God given rights as American citizens, 

Just so the gentleman who wrote the post above knows, I have deleted every goggle related account I have on all my internet devices and have never had nor will I have a social media account and I will not knowingly support individuals or corporations who want to take away my firearms.

I personally appreciate the info Bailey and I didn't appreciate the name calling either.  My intention was to DRAW attention to a LEFTIST company that doesn't want or need our support and inform people of their policies.  I do my best to frequent businesses, media and programs that have conservative values that don't try to absolve our Bill of Rights and Christian values.  I am building a pretty good list.  I am not a MEDIA guy and I despise Pro Sports lately.  NO SUPER BOWL or watching any PRO sports for me.  Thanks for your post.

I was considering posting about being anti Dick's sporting goods but had not decided if the 20 posters in front of me saying it was sufficient or not, guess it was. 

Thanks for the tip, guess it is hard these days to just pass something rather than comment, look at what I am doing.  ;D

Post by: Tom007 on January 29, 2021, 08:24:34 AM
I definitely feel Bailey was just trying to pass on info to our members, trying not to create any controversy here. He is a fine member, thanks for offering your info. Be safe, best of luck to all this spring....

After what the country just experienced, and where we are heading, those who like the rule of law, and the Constitution, The Bill of Rights, free speech, and personal freedom, are pretty worked up and short fused at the moment. I'm afraid some of that frustration got siphoned off onto the OP as per his unfortunate decision to shop at Dick's.

I get it 100%. We all as a fraternity need to stick together, through thick and thin. This forum has educated me on a lot of great things, we have to keep passing on our info. The hunting fraternity is shrinking in our country, we can't afford to lose members in our sport, actually we have to concentrate on adding members to keep this all going. The passion on this forum is what attracted me in becoming a member. Be safe, be well...

There's a Dick's less than a two-minute drive from my house.  It opened about fifteen years ago, as I recall.  I went in to take a look when it opened, looked at the hunting/fishing department, and said to myself,..."no need to ever come back in here again",...and I have not. 

Nonetheless, I do appreciate folks here giving a heads-up on potential opportunities for buying stuff we might all be interested in.  So, kudos to you Bailey for doing that!   :icon_thumright:

Nothing towards you at all 3bailey3.   I'm sure everyone was just expressing their views on the mentioned company.   We appreciate the heads up, keep them coming.  And as far as being called a Fag just consider the source and wear it as a badge of honor.   If my comments came across as unappreciative, that wasn't my intent and I apologize.

The controversy about Dick's on this forum , has been expressed several times. I don't feel that the replies are against your at all 3bailey3 . If someone called you names , i feel sorry for that person. Also as members of this forum, we have to remember, WE start seeing a influx of people to the forum, that usually only show up about 2 months out of the year. I agree with some of the others , we need to protect our right's more than ever now..

I certainly meant no disrespect whatsoever to sbailey3.  I did mean it to Dick's though.  As I don't believe in shopping there is my right, I believe anyone can chose whatever they elect to do and certainly don't need to answer to me.  I'm sorry if I came off ugly, especially to the OP.

As far as the insult, ignore is your friend. I never saw it!

My apologies if you thought I was trying to insult you. I was just trying to have some fun with the thread title.

Glad I am not the only one that feels this way about Dicks. I will also remember the pro athletes, actors , musicians who took a giant crap on our Country. I won't be using Amazon for anything either.
