    CCW Fashion Show Cancelled by Bass Pro

    It was sold out. The people that organized it did an amazing job. Everything was ready to go. Bass Pro caved 2 days before the event because of the tiniest amount of push back from some anonymous SJWs.

    CCW Fashion Show - Presented by GOAL and Massachusetts Women Gun Owners

    Join us for a great night of fun, Friday March 9, 2018 at the Bass Pro Shop in Foxborough.

    Tickets are limited, so be sure to get yours today, you don't want to miss this event!

    Location: Bass Pro Shops 1 Bass Pro Drive, Foxborough, Ma

    Time/Date: Friday, March 9th, 6:00 PM- 9:00 PM, with cocktail hr starting at 6pm, Show starts at 7pm.

    Presented by: GOAL and Massachusetts Women Gun Owners

    Cost: $45/ticket before Feb. 26th, after that $56/person
    Don't they understand that the SJWs hate their business, don't spend money there, and would like nothing more than to shut them down?

    Now it's our turn to push back!

    It was well on it's way to being a successful fundraiser for local gun rights organizations. Something new to me too, but a good idea, as it did sell out.

    I'm sure many of the models were women, as they have special purses, etc. (see flyer). Many couples planned date nights around this—some even booking hotel rooms—and Bass Pro pulled the plug in the 11th hour.

    Yes. I'm not privy to all the details, but lawyers are working on it as we post.

    It's bigger than that, though. If Bass Pro, a company that makes a lot of money off gun owners, is going to act like Dick's Sporting Goods and Walmart, that takes this fight to a whole new level.

    This event was a fund raiser for an organization called Massachusetts Women Gun Owners.

    Today is International Women's Day 2018.

    Another business I don't do business with which I won't do business with as a result of this business.
    There's nothing civil about this war.

    Thanks, Guys.

    Please don't forget, Bass Pro owns Cabela's too!

    I agree that it matters, Tom.

    According to the email I received from Gun Owner's Action League (the local NRA chapter), they specifically state they were just informed of the cancellation "by the corporate office of Bass Pro Shops" and "Bass Pro HQ informed us that this was due to 'unforeseen circumstances'." No other official reasons were offered.

    People around here are mobilizing against both corporate and all the local Bass Pro and Cabela's stores and hoping to make a national issue of it.
