I remember Eli Wallach's line in The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. He was sitting in a bubble bath listening to a litany of threats from some man pointing a gun at him. Suddenly, Eli shoots through the bubbles, kills him, then says; "If you're going to talk, talk, if you're going to shoot, shoot."

If Dick's is going into politics, or worse, trying to persuade the left to like them, then go into politics. If they want to sell desirable products, then do so. Never expect your ex-customers to buy from you after you aggravate them. Read Dale Carnegie, it's quite simple.

The left will always hate them no matter what they do. They sound like the Republican hierarchy trying to make the media and their partners, the Democrats, like them by angering their base.

I hope Citibank suffers the same results for ignoring common sense business and selling practices, not to mention insulting patriotic, freedom loving Americans. There are other banks and credit cards.

There won't be rent a rabble, scraggly bums outside these businesses protesting their policy because gun owners, and others who oppose such anti-American ideas have jobs and must work. Our efforts will never be reported by the drive-by media. No, we just quietly avoid those businesses that are bad for our country and for our God given rights.

Mr. Flynn, that was a good post and reflected a good bit of wisdom IMHO...Geo
