Now, don't get me wrong. I take no pleasure in people losing their jobs, or investors losing their investments.
However, I strongly believe in the free market, I think that bad management deserves to be replaced, and I think that significant corporate stockholders deserve to lose money when they retain bad management.
And, Kmart's management has acted despicably regarding the RKBA. Remember the absurd kowtowing to Michael Moore, and their decision to quit selling sidearm ammunition? Also, wasn't it the patriotically-challenged Kmart management who quit selling firearms and ammunition on September 11? And, lest we forget, these bozos employed the brilliant, political genius Rosie O'Donnell as a pitch woman. Other than those little details, I suppose Kmart's management has been just ducky regarding fundamental American liberties ...
So, frankly, I'm not at all troubled to see this weak-kneed, poorly-managed dinosaur slouching towards extinction.
As a matter of fact, I'll be a little plainer ... Kmart can go to H-E-double hockey sticks, as the kids say.
Now, I have no idea how much this disgusting poltical behavior has cost Kmart, but I will say this ... life and business are competitive enough these days without ticking off millions of gun owners. Very, very stupid for Kmart's management to get themselves unnecessariliy embroiled in such controversy. And, hopefully this will serve as a good example for other large firms, even if the RKBA effect is vague and easily overstated.
Businesses should stick to their knitting ... and that means stay out of politics, especially when it comes to supporting leftists.
Anyone else out there NOT missing that old blue light special?
