Sign outside of business causing a boom in customers

Riley Gunnoe says business is booming at his tool store in St. Albans. He says it's because of a sign outside.

Gunnoe told me he didn't know what was going to happen when he put this phrase on it, "If you are for Obama's policies, please keep your dumba$$ out of this store."

Gunnoe says he didn't know what was going to happen when he put the sign up. "I didn't care. But it really has doubled my business since I put it up so I'm glad I did now!"

Some people in the community say it makes them question whether they would do business with Riley.

Thomas Snyder of Charleston said, "Who knows in the future if I was going to buy tools and my friends referred me to them, but now, why would I want to go there?"

[Morgana]

I'm lovin it.

[Morgana]

“If anyone was stupid enough to believe in Obama’s policies, then I think they’re too dumb to own a tool. They’ll probably get hurt on it,” said Gunnoe.

The economy is so bad MSNBC had to lay off 300 Obama spokesmen Leno

[Brad’s Gramma]

Another...different state, different business. :)

Thomas, Thomas, Thomas why would the likes of you need a tool?

Tools are what makers use, not takers.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Yeppers. Democrat Obama worshippers don’t know which end of a hammer to pick up.

"He said business had declined significantly since Obama took office."

I'm guessing that he needs to add ammo and guns to his inventory.

[3Fingas]

I can’t make out the words on the sign. Did msnbc purposely blur them out? It wouldn’t surprise me if they did. In fact, I surprised that they are reporting on this peaceful bit of protest at all.

[SandRat]

LOL

Now aint that sweet. Wonder how many more there will be.

[Brad’s Gramma]

I’m hoping it’s the beginning of a trend.

[azishot]

Makes ya proud to live in AZ doesn’t it?!?!

[annieokie]

"Who knows in the future if I was going to buy tools"""...

That statement tells me that THOMAS does not buy any tools ever. Words are Cheap...rofl.

This guys business would boom if he also had a WEBSITE, people would order from that.

Good for him, that's the American spirit...........

Looks like the TEA PARTY has found another way...love it.

[Brad’s Gramma]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh yes, you have NO idea!!! :)

[Last of the Mohicans]

I liked this one.

[annieokie]

ME TOO. THE TEA PARTY REVOLT IS ON.......

So Thomas, you didn't buy anything and weren't going to buy anything. But now you won't buy what you weren't going to just to show 'em?

Go screw big guy...

[azishot]

Betcha I do. ;)

[annieokie]

AWE come on Mr. Gunnoe, at least sell them a SKY HOOK, you may even have a left handed hoe laying around somewhere.

[Morgana]

“This guys business would boom if he also had a WEBSITE, people would order from that. “

You mean like this one?

[Brad’s Gramma]

Yeah... ;)

[goodnesswins]

YEP....I found it interesting to note where the “O” signs were in our neighborhood, also....told me where the dummies live. Our Russian neighbor actually confronted one with the question....”Why would you vote for that Socialist?”

[annieokie]

Well alright now. Thanks. Hope he succeeds BIG TIME.

[Morgana]

Considering he is NOT an obozo voter, he probably will.

There was a business in my general neighborhood that had a life-size cardboard cutout of BO in the window prior to the “election.” It has since been removed (to their back room, I guess). I’ve never patronized that particular business and now have even less reason for doing so.

[EandH Dad]

I know a guy that needs a seat cover for a wheelbarrow.

[sport]

Mark for later.

[Revolting cat!]

My uncle has this sign in his store:

[doorgunner69]

Don’t forget to tell them to stock up on pneumatic fluid and prop wash if they need it..........

[Repeat Offender]

Or some muffler bearings for the lawnmower.

[erikm88]

Or maybe a gallon or two of radar paint..

[GeronL]

lolz

[Marcella]

“This guys business would boom if he also had a WEBSITE, people would order from that.”

That is exactly what I thought. I would buy something.

[annieokie]

LOL, these are getting good.........ROFL

Paging Mr. Thomas Snyder, your order is ready, on isle (post) #18, 19,20,21,22 and so on....

Lots of useful items to pick from, and just your style too. Bargain prices...........

[nomad]

If they`re dumb enough to believe Obozo they ARE a TOOL!

[publius911]

We have become a nation of fools.
This man had the courage to state a position, his business has doubled, and the only thing the "reporter" could conclude from it all that was of any value, is that "some" ( two or three?) would wonder if they ever would want to shop there.

After all it is pmsnbc reporting. They are clueless. They are not normal ‘buy your tools at Riley’s’ kind of people.

"This guys business would boom if he also had a WEBSITE, people would order from that. "

You betcha!

I need a circular saw. TS Irene ate mine and I still haven't replaced it.

Right now I plan to buy "made in china" items ('cos of unions) from any American Patriot.

[rawcatslyentist]

Wanna bet it cuts down on his shoplifting losses too?

[1_Rain_Drop]

That website doesn’t sell anything.

[bigbob]

“dumba$$” is a curse word??

These libs and their tender little feelings...they get *offended* so very easily...poor things.

Meanwhile, I feel a need to buy tools.

[ThomasThomas]

Who is this Thomas, Thomas, Thomas guy you talk about?

[S.O.S121.500]

Sorry Claire, its time to shun them until you can shoot ‘em.

[freekitty]

Me too. Of course, MSNBC says some people with no explanation of who these people are question if they will do business with him. Who the hell cares. It’s a made up lie.

No relation, I trust?
