Dicks had a meltdown, for good reason.

Kudos to Dicks Sporting Goods for doing the right thing despite losing money. Instead of sending spray weapons back to the makers, they sold them to scrap metal companies to be destroyed rather than risk them ending up on the streets.

And while they took a short term hit, they are not hurting now, and they've gotten lots of support for doing the right thing.

My cousins are swearing they won't spend any of the money they make producing meth at Dick's from now on. That should show them!

You did tell them that Breaking Bad was just a TV show and not a documentary?

It was a documentary. Disguised as a TV show.

Sorry, you took a right at Albuquerque. I'm saying that the cousins are livin' the Breaking Bad dream. They watch(ed) that show with far more attention than they paid to their homeschool lessons.
