Invest
10 minutes to help save your guns

K-Mart has just announced that they will be phasing out
ammunition sales in their stores nation wide within the next 90 days. The
move was prompted by pressure from gun control advocates.
If
you care about your Second Amendment rights, It is important that you take a few
minutes to tell K-Mart what you think of their new policy. A 10-minute FREE
phone call could make all the difference in the world. Just dial
1-800-247-0200
(Press 1 after being
connected.)
and ask for
clarification on their "no ammunition" policy. Follow up with a
statement to the effect that you've been a K-Mart customer, but will no longer
be one unless the policy is immediately and publicly reversed.
Be polite!
This should be a
death of a million cuts!
The thousands of
people who read this page alone, all calling K-Mart, spending just 10 minutes
each to express disapproval - will have K-Mart spending man-months (if not
man-years) just answering the phone! Add in similar responses from other lists,
and we can MELT K-Mart's phone lines. TELL YOUR FRIENDS!
If K-Mart follows
the adage that for every complaint there are 100 people who aren't happy about
the problem, we'll see an immediate reversal of policy. (Sweet!) Well, get busy
dialing! We cannot do it without you!
It's important
that you make K-Mart explain their policy because it forces them to go through
the process with each individual. Ask follow up questions, like,
- Are you saying
you think your customers are criminals?
- Do you really
think that by not selling ammunition you are affecting anything but your own
bottom line and your reputation as an anti-Constitutional merchant?
- Why do you
want to undermine the right of the people to bear arms?
- Have you
considered that no matter how unprofitable you may consider ammunition
sales, since K-Mart still bears the stigma of being anti-Second Amendment
(thanks to Rosie O'Donnell) any move in this direction will give millions of
gun owners the nudge they need to shop elsewhere?
Cite your own
personal intentions. I just told them that when Rosie came out with her
statement that all gun owners should be in jail, and K-Mart didn't fire her, I
dropped K-Mart, not setting foot in a K-Mart for more than a year and a half.
When Rosie was canned, I started shopping at K-Mart again. With K-Mart's new
policy, I will never set foot in a K-Mart again... except perhaps to scarf up
some bargains at their bankruptcy clearance sale.
No need to be
acrimonious. Just state the simple facts.
And keep them on
the line as long as possible.
Your call will be
just one drop in a torrent of disapproval, but our strength is in numbers. If
K-Mart sees their decision washing away their bottom line, there will be an
abrupt reversal. And that REALLY matters.
Why?
If K-Mart is
forced to do an about face (again), after their former embarrassment on this
issue, it will keep many other merchants from making the same mistake. Think
about the Smith & Wesson capitulation to government pressure. Other gun
manufacturers were thinking, "Maybe we should take the deal too." Only
the fact that gun owners CRUSHED S&W in a true grass roots rejection of
their decision has prevented any other gun manufacturer from even considering
similar foolishness. And S&W, as you may know, was recently sold by its
former owners at bargain basement prices.
It's time to
bring pressure to bear. This won't cost you anything but a few minutes of your
time.
