If there's money to be made in selling them, they will continue to do so.

I bet they do. I suspect the revenue is little to none in perspective to their pathetic trash consumer. It would be up to the board and I can see the liability outweighing the trash revenue.
Another retail box stores appearing to be good community stewards in the eyes of their shareholders and the government. We all know where all this is heading. |

Last time I actually bothered to go there all they had was marlin lever actions and model 60's. This was after they "quit selling firearms" in my locale but changed their mind when enough Fudds complained. Fuck WM.

But will continue to sell prescription drugs like suboxone.
I think it's a pretty good analogy, imperfect but still pretty close. |

Guys that is not what he said at all. In fact even when she said "semi autos" he said that has been a big part of out history and we will continue to serve those customers and have a great sporting goods department.

If there's money to be made in selling them, they will continue to do so. As they should. It's their responsibility to make money for the stockholders... they've already gone dangerously out on a limb with the across the board pay raises - that will cut into profit. If they stop selling firearms and ammo just because of political opinion, WMT will lose a lot of customers, and even more profit. |

It'd be interesting to me to calculate the amount of money I have not spent at walmart cause I never go for .22 anymore. It's probably in the thousands if not more. I'd go for a couple bricks of .22 and buy 100 dollars worth of other crap.
we get that stuff at other places that are closer now cause I don't need to pikc up the .22 there anymore. |

The "age of politicized CEOs and the use (abuse?) of their companies to push agendas.
Aren't most, of not all, those companies taking "political stands" considering themselves apolitical and even fire employees who make political statements on social media? Don't they have strict HR rules that prohibit that? Now add this the mix: isn't the IRS being used politically (and illegally) by this current federal administration? So, now add to the mix that those companies are likely getting tax kickbacks (and their CEOs either) to take "political stances". 
Thoughts? |
