    To all the mentioned companies in this thread, I will not buy from, only exception is Wal-mart. While Wal-mart did do away with open carry, they didn't do away with carry all together. While this may upset a lot of folk, I think it was a good middle ground decision. There are also a lot of local places I will not support, wife gets mad at me when she wants to go in a look at what they have, well that's to bad.

    When I was younger, I boycotted if it was convenient. As I got older, I now boycott out of sheer principle. I realize my kids are watching decisions I make and I need them to grow up to be principled and firm in their decisions.

    However, I JUST LOVE using paypal to buy gun shit because they just HATE that I'm doing that. Do they know? NOPE. Just the thought that they don't want it and I'm doing it anyway makes every dollar I spend feel like a blow job.

    The couple of Walmarts I have been in do not have 30.07 posted.

    No Gillete, Walmart, Nike,Starbucks, Levi's, Dicks, Springfield, RRA, Benchmade. I also try to stay away from companies from California and New York. My list is growing. I'm sure I left some out.

    Have not bought Levi's since they shut off the Boy Scouts back in the 90s(?)
    Now I have no use for the Boy Scouts. I guess they (Levi's) won that one over time. My oldest used to have his Eagle Scout stuff proudly displayed. Last time I was at his place it was gone.
    Target, Panera Bread, Dick's(less), Nike, Starbucks, can all kiss my butt. Never will spend another dime on their products. Do not care about boycotts. Do not even care that they all decided not to like / sell guns or gun stuff. That is their right. JUST DO NOT LECTURE ME ABOUT MY RIGHTS AND MY BELIEFS BUTT HEADS!!!!!

    OH and Gillette, which is all I ever used, can bite me. Went with Harry's

    My issue with Walmart isn’t the 30.07 that isn’t posted or their decision not to sell certain firearms and ammo, its their charter membership to every town USA. Soros’s rapidly growing anti-gun consortium.

    And not every Walmart is telling customers open carrying too leave. I'm still carrying and shopping.

    I haven't gone to El Paso, but here in Odessa, even though we had gone through our own active shooter situation not too long ago, same signs as before and no issue for open carry.

    First, please don’t assume the identity of my ‘cotts

    In addition to boycotts already mentioned:
    Some entertainers
    Pseudo political-news outlets

    I’m fine with Walmart.

    Boycotts very rarely have any impact.

    Especially when it's conservatives boycotting liberal businesses.......too many pantie waist pukes out there who will still support them.

    While it may not be enough to collapse a company it does hurt them , just look at Gillettes profits since their anti-man ads. The main reason I do it is for me though. It makes me feel better.
