Dick’s Sporting Goods is taking a lot of flak for its decision to stop selling the number one sporting rifle in America, the AR-15. Rather than carrying out its mission to supply its customers with the goods that they want and expect, Dick’s has decided that it will be a full-blown social justice mouthpiece for the gun-grabbing lobby. Well, as the saying goes these days, “Get woke, go broke!”
The Crossroads Pawn and Audio Shop in South Carolina decided to poke a stick at Dick’s with some epic storefront trolling. The pawn shop put up a new sign with a message for its customers — call it some effective marketing to highlight their advantage over their competitors, if you will.
The pawn shop released a statement to the public after it received a lot of feedback from customers, both positive and negative. One nice thing about Crossroads’ statement is that the shop points out a truth that is painful for leftists: The AR-15 is not a combat weapon or a tactical assault rifle. Sorry, liberals! Although it is the most popular deer hunting rifle in many states, the AR-15 is, for all intents and purposes, a glorified squirrel rifle and not a military weapon intended for combat use. It’s just too small.
At any rate, check out the video below to see what the sign in the front of the Crossroads Pawn and Audio Shop says. It’s a great lesson in how to trigger SJWs like the management at Dick’s Sporting Goods!
