        This is so dumb. But I’m sure small gun shops are stoked. If they were truly going to ban assault weapons then they need to ban knives, bows, arrows, crossbows, bats, etc. This is strictly a PR move and does nothing to help save a life or protect one.

        A company that puts customers' lives & well-being before profits from weapons of war deserves our patronage. What a courageous step to take in this era of @NRA political influence & soaring profit. Retailer leading the way over gutless Congress.

        We're liberals and we just have so much feels about people not being allowed to defend themselves. Liberals looooove giving up their rights.

        No one's talking about taking away anyone's rights. As long as you're eligible to legally purchase a firearm go ahead. Only talking about weapons/ammo of war. Nobody's trying to take away/overturn 2A just have common sense gun laws. Not about politics just public safety. 🇺🇸💪

        Nothing common sense about gun control. The Left is very vocal that their ultimate aim is to destroy the 2nd Amendment and make owning guns illegal. You are being disingenuous.

        We'll agree to disagree about common sense. No one's trying to take away your gun or overturn 2A. It's disingenuous for you to spread that falsehood regardless of politics. You don't know me personally sir, I'm not judging you for your differing opinion. Good day. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

        It'll be a very good day when liberals stop braying about disarming innocent and law abiding citizens and give up on their unattainable socialist utopia fantasies.

        It's sad that adults can ignore printed words and project their illogical and untrue conclusions. Civil discourse is beyond your dark world view. Others prefer light and truth. Good night and God bless.
