Lets see what city you will be flying in from when the day comes. See if we can pick something special to bring with you.

Well if they want to loose even more money just to be virtue signaling, that's their choice.
Burning money just to try to please the PC mob that wouldn't give them extra kudos anyways.

wtf is wrong with companies such as these? there are millions of ar-15's out there in the hands of very responsible owners, and a tiny, tiny fraction get used for bad, and they are going to melt down their inventory vs sell it to law-abiding citizens? just hard to comprehend the stupidity and ignorance.

maybe all the booze and cell phone stores will burn their inventories and get out of that business to reduce drunk and distracted driving?

They should destroy these, too:

I don't care a single iota what a private company or individual does with their private property that they spent their own money on.

DSG, however, isn't a private company but rather a publicly traded corporation. If I was a shareholder, and the company was going to destroy inventory that the BoD has chosen not to sell as a matter of policy rather than sell that inventory to another retailer, I would be PISSED.

Reality is the loss probably won't amount to much more than a couple million dollars, but C-level management and the BoD has a fiduciary responsibility to shareholders that willfully destroying legal inventory seems to run counter to.
