Dick's Sporting Goods is warning investors that its decision to remove certain "assault-style" weapons from its Field & Stream stores cost it dearly and may limit its future gains.

The sporting goods retailer was forced to confront angry shareholders late last week after its stocks tanked more than 4.5% and financial conglomerate J.P. Morgan Chase downgraded Dick's shares, saying the company was "overweight."

MIAMI — A man was shot to death outside a Billiards in Coral Springs early Sunday after police say he showed up with a machete.

According to Coral Springs police, the unidentified man was kicked out of the Premier Billiards & Sports Club — 9120 Wiles Road — at around 2 a.m. A few minutes later, he showed up with a machete and that's when someone from outside the bar shot him.

"He brandished a machete and went after a group of people," said Coral Springs spokesman Chris Swinson. "A subject that was there shot him."

The victim was transported to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead.

California’s Background Check Law Had No Impact on Gun Deaths, Johns Hopkins Study Finds

The findings—which run counter to the conventional wisdom that gun control saves lives—have received almost no media attention.

We Should Judge by Outcomes, Not Intentions


Alas, the experts are behaving exactly as expected.

More than a decade ago, the writer Louis Menand, in a New Yorker article, explained the rationalizations experts make when their theories fail to hold up in our real-world laboratory:

When they’re wrong, [experts are] rarely held accountable, and they rarely admit it, either. They insist that they were just off on timing, or blindsided by an improbable event, or almost right, or wrong for the right reasons. They have the same repertoire of self-justifications that everyone has, and are no more inclined than anyone else to revise their beliefs about the way the world works, or ought to work, just because they made a mistake.

California’s failed gun control law appears to be yet another example of experts, to paraphrase the great Milton Friedman, judging “policies and programs by their intentions rather than their results.”

Despite the dismal record of gun control, expect the media and “experts” to use a repertoire of self-justifications rather than modify their beliefs—regardless of what the evidence shows.

Why would people be against background checks for gun purchasers?
