        I’m confident that I could find a magazine cover that would support any position. I know of no man or woman, having used a long gun to conduct an assault, that would call an AR 15 an assault rifle.

        Thank you for sharing. I agree that something needs to be done just not certain that taking a rifle away from thousands of responsible gun owners is the answer.

        What do they consider "assault weapons?" So are they going to stop selling all hunting rifles?

        I think they mean just semi-automatic, hunting goods still account for a good chunk of Dick's business

        You do realize that 90% of weapons are semi-automatic... right? Even hunting rifles? Even small, single-stack handguns?

        Yes, and you do realize that semi-auto guns are not assault rifles right?

        No such thing as assault-type weapons.

        Thank you, seeing that term used just drives me insane. And so many people just mindlessly repeat it. Scare tactics at their finest.

        Since when can a corporation violate the constitutional rights of their customers? I understand their right not to sell an ar-15. Restricting sales will not survive legal challenges.

        There is nothing in the Constitution that says Assault Rifles are a right of 2nd amendment. They had F’g muskets when the 2nd amendment was written. Wake the f’k up. U can still buy anything else u want

        Nothing in the constitution specifically said you can use offensive language towards me either. But the Supreme Court has still supported Amendment 1 and 2 for you and me....

        No problem. I have the mouth of a sailor in person. Studies indicate it is a sign of the most honest people in the world......

        Actually studies indicate it's a sign of laziness to use cuss words rather than other words. Expand your vocabulary. There's words for everything.
