I don't mean to undermine what any of these companies are doing. It is wonderful! But, we need to do better.

Isn't this age discrimination if there isn't a law preventing the sale?
-
It is. The under 21 crowd is not a protected class. We discriminate against them all the time - mostly for sexual stuff, but also violent stuff (games, movies, etc). We also discriminate against our smallest citizens. I mean, I couldn't even get on the rollercoaster til 9.

Nineteen states do have laws against age discrimination in public accommodations. http://www.ncsl.org/research/civil-and-criminal-justice/state-public-accommodation-laws.aspx …

Erik, "Public Accommodations" are hotels, motels, & inns. The laws you linked to are about renting rooms to people.
-
Yes, that's why I said "in public accommodations."
-
A store is not a "public accommodation" by any stretch. Walmart isn't going to rent you a bed, no matter how old you are. These stores are changing their store policies. The laws don't state one MUST sell hand guns to 21yo & rifles to 18yo. Just they have to be a min that age.

“Public accommodation” has a much broader legal definition than that. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_accommodations …

C’mon John, Wikipedia isn’t a reliable scholarly source

Good for them, and Dick’s, and Walmart. Let’s sincerely hope this movement against irrational NRA-type paranoia (i.e., selfish so-called 2nd Amendment “gun rights”) gains some sane/rational traction.

Buying a gun at LL Bean might be the whitest thing you could do

I had LL Bean as number 2, Eddie Bauer would be number number 1

I don’t understand the under 21 argument. Most of the worst mass shooting were by people over 21. They should stop selling to men.
