Bowing to the left Publix has pulled all gun related magazines from its stores. Interestingly in my local store it replaced the magazines with several promoting Oprah as a great potential presidential candidate. I plan to try shopping at Publix's competition.

Im surprised its taken this long honestly. AFter Sandy Hook, i figured all print that had anything to do with guns would be yanked off the shelves...

I was around for 1994, and I've never seen so many businesses go so retarded.

Only mags they sell are at the checkstand...People..Enquirer...
Virtue signalling. Plenty of ads in Hunting and Fishing mags. |
|
For a moment I was thinking how awesome it was that a supermarket sold magazines.. as in.. ammo feeding devices.
|

OOH! Publix DID something!
Hey! Look at us, we DID something! Squirt of piss. |
|
NRA members should leave their old copies of American Rifleman in the magazine section at Publix.
|
|
would they be mad if i brought my own gun mags in and set them up on their shelves?
|
|
Was there about 1:30 this afternoon, still had all the gun rags on display.
|
|
i forgot to check Walmart today to see if they still had Recoil and G&A's AR-15
|
|

Hmm, not sure what my response will be, we use Publix for about 35% of our grocery needs.
Of course I have never bought any magazine there. |

People read magazines? But seriously the day when the interwebs is swept clean of gun sites by liberal cock gobbling CEOS will be a bad day.
I fully understand that a company may do what it wants and this isn't a violation of the 1st amendment. However, it is high time we took a page from the liberal playbook (the gay cake baking one) and demand that it is illegal for web hosts that use a PUBLIC entity (the internet) to block free speech. There is precedent there too. A private Mardi Gras krewe is free to keep out black members, but isn't allowed to use public roads. "In 1991 the New Orleans City Council, led by Democrat Dorothy Mae Taylor, passed an ordinance that required social organizations, including Mardi Gras Krewes, to certify publicly that they did not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, gender, disability, or sexual orientation, in order to obtain parade permits and other public licensure." So if a company wants to use public space, whether literal or electronic, they cannot discriminate against free speech. FGoogle FTwitter FFbook |

Publix, in an of itself, doesn't matter. But this is all cumulative. We are being steamrolled.

Was just in a Publix this morning. They had plenty of gun mags in the magazine aisle.

where was this announced? Publix is a republican doner View Quote The attack by leftists on FedEx wasn't about guns, it was about some of their execs being Republican donors. This isn't about guns, it's about hard leftists using a wedge and going after anyone they feel the need to destroy. |

I was in Publix this afternoon, and the gun rags were plentiful.

I'm not surprised by the Barnett family.
It's easy when you're worth billionaires and can afford 24/7 armed security for you and all your shit children. |

Where’d you see/hear that OP?
As of about an hour ago the Publix in Tequesta still had the usual gun ad rags. |
|
who buys magazines anyways?
one day we trash talk gun rags the next day were supposed to fight for them? |

Like I've seen before it's probably a manager that over-stepped his bounds.....he meant well....

What if companies just started outright lying when they virtue signal?
"ConHugeCo responds to MediaHogg tweet by saying 'we agree wholeheartedly and will get those evil black rifles off our shelves because your feels are important to us'" ConHugeCo sale "All Evil Black Rifles 30% Off!" |

If there’s one thing that is not responsible for any issues of late it is print media.
You won’t find a copy of field and stream in the book bag of the latest shooter. |

This smells like fake news provided by an ultra low post count "member".

I was around for 1994, and I've never seen so many businesses go so retarded. View Quote You now know who to never spend your money with again. They can cave to protests on social media by people who never shop with them and are targeting them to further an agenda, but they have just potentially lost a lifetime of business from a large chunk of people who have never attacked them in such a way and will now quietly just take their business elsewhere. |

That's fine, Winn Dixie is closer, nicer, and cheaper anyways.
Fuck them. |

That's weird, because I was just in there a couple of days ago and happened to go by the magazine rack, and I noticed that at least a quarter of the magazines were gun rags.

Who reads magazines anymore anyways?! View Quote A dead tree can be read by candlelight. A computer/smartphone/internet router with no power is a brick. And, yes, I read books, too, and don't own a Kindle. Nothing like sitting down with a good book, a good cigar, and a good beer. |
