[QUOTE="Aries, post: 3262274, member: 44328"] I'm not really big on boycotts, at least in an absolute sense. I'm very reluctant to shop at Dick's (and in fact have only been in their store once since they announced they were destroying their AR-15 inventory). I prefer Lowes over Home Depot because of some of the political causes HD supports. But the truth is, the owners/managers/stockholders of Lowes are probably into some crap I wouldn't be favor of too. So you could be boycotting someone's vice, while supporting someone else's. That's just me though. I will say that much of the time I would RATHER buy from one place than another, due to political views, but it has to be pretty extreme for me to refuse to buy from them. As far as Walmart, I wish their CEO wasn't soft on an AWB, but I appreciate they aren't caving to pressure to stop firearm/ammo sales. So it's kind of mixed feelings. Otherwise, I like Walmart but I get frustrated by people that shop there. Same thing happens at gun shows sometimes, though. [/QUOTE]
