How have they not stood up for the constitution? Does it state somewhere in the constitution that all retail stores are required to sell guns?

Haven't spent a penny there since they came out as left wing nutjob extremists and I won't ever again.
So the right wing nut job extremists won’t shop there. Their profits are fine.

"Sport" does not have to take muscle and sweat. Shooting is an Olympic sport. If you can play hockey without a hockey stick, you can shoot without a gun too.

When you say “gun nuts,” do you also include cops, the military, and the entire U.S government? Or is your pejorative only for individuals exercising their property rights?

I'm as far from left-wing as you can possibly get and I have no problem with the free market doing what it does.

They can get jobs in a more in-demand field.
