Companies caving to lib whiners

Interesting thing pointed out about the Dicks decision...if they refuse to sell firearms to people 18-20 (where such sales would be legal), but do sell to people 21+, that's actually age discrimination, which is illegal in many states (not CO, apparently).

Good point.

For what it is worth, I spend about $8-10K a year at Hertz. Whether that means anything to them is debatable, but here is what I sent them on their last survey:

I am profoundly disappointed with the Hertz corporation's recent decision to publically drop the NRA marketing agreement. I am not a member of the NRA, but I am disgusted by your calculated corporate cowardice. Whatever the NRA and/or it's membership may be guilty of, they certainly aren't the ones to engage in criminal acts in Parkland, nor to my knowledge has an NRA member been the perpetrator of any school shooting. You have signaled a clear willingness to take sides in a divisive social issue and publically stigmatize a large group of people. I don't believe my opinion matters to you, but I am certain my dollars do. I will be thinking very carefully about how I choose to spend those dollars when next I rent a vehicle.

I don't shop at Dick's anyway so I can't "affect" their bottom line. However, I did contact and them (and the other entities that are distancing themselves from the NRA) by email stating that I could no longer in good faith support any company that disregards the constitutional rights of the individual for political reasons.

Should just name your entry point devices "Gun Room", "NRA Members-Only Guest Room", etc.

I think it's just a matter of time before someone 18-20 files suit as to being denied their rights protected by the 2A.

The kind of 18-20 year-old with the kind of money to file suit probably isn't buying guns.

Would be nice if someone did bring a lawsuit, won, and then used the winnings to buy a bunch of guns and ammo.

If refusing to bake someone a cake because they take it up the pooper is seen as some sort of discrimination then certainly refusing to sell something to someone based solely on their age has to be discrimination.
