It's ironic that Dicks Sporting Goods is dropping Scentblocker, because something stinks and it smells like liberals.
Scentblocker has started including a tag with a Christian outreach message on it among the tags that come on its clothing. Someone at Dicks ( probably one idiot--it almost always is just one or two) freaked out and asked them to remove the tag. Scentblocker, to their everlasting credit, refused and Dicks dropped them.
Dicks
Now most of my friends are Christians or at least non-hostile toward religion. But of the Atheists or irreligious types I know, I can think of none who would so insecure as to be bothered by this tag. They would simply ignore it.
First the AR's and now Jesus-bashing. Are they going to stop carrying Buck knives? Buck has a little section in their paperwork where they talk about God being their "senior partner" at the company. We can't have that, can we?
Political Correctness run amok. I found a comment section on their website and wrote this:
"Just a quick note to tell you that since your company is persecuting Christians, I will not go in your store or order from you again. As if dropping AR's wasn't evidence enough of liberal contagion, banning a line of hunting wear because of a removable "gospel card" is the final proof that something stinks at the top. If I thought that you would also ban a company that printed a verse from the Quran, maybe I'd see your point. We both know that would never happen, however. I will now be dropping by one of the largest outdoor internet forums in Indiana to let them know about this. Enjoy bankruptcy."
