[QUOTE="rlongnt, post: 3088652, member: 665"] [URL]https://www.foxbusiness.com/features/dicks-sporting-goods-violating-civil-rights-laws[/URL] Judge Andrew Napolitano said Dick’s Sporting Goods may be within its legal rights to sell firearms to whomever it chooses to — regardless of age. The company, one of the nation’s largest sport retailers, said Wednesday it will stop selling assault-style weapons in its stores and will no longer allow a person under the age of 21 to purchase a gun, regardless of what the local laws are. “We have civil rights laws that prohibit discrimination on certain basis,” Napolitano told FOX Business’ Stuart Varney on “Varney & Co.” “Race, color, creed, gender, and in New Jersey, age.” Federal law currently protects people age 40 and older, but under some state laws, for example in New Jersey where Dick’s has multiple stores, you cannot be subject to age discrimination if you are more than 18 years old. “Can they refuse to sell a gun to a person who is immature and is going to harm themselves or others? Absolutely,” the judge said. [/QUOTE]
