Russ Hearter sent a message to Edward W. Stack Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Dicks Sporting Goods Email Address that said:
Dear Sir:
I am sure you have received numerous emails regarding your decision to stop selling the "Assault Rifles" and increase the purchase age to 21. I have been a long term customer of Dicks at the Wyomissing, Pa store. Your decision has disturbed me greatly. No longer will I purchase any more firearms, hunting supplies, ammo or sports equipment from your company. I have always had the choice of several stores in our area including Cabelas and Bass Pro. I was a regular customer and although it is your right it was a poor decision on your part. Where will your company be in the near future financially?
