The Economic Influence of Gun Owners: Stamp Your Cash!
Concealed Carry Magazine ^ | August 4, 2014 | Kevin Michalowski

Posted on 08/05/2014 8:47:38 AM PDT by ChildOfThe60s

It’s time to let the world know how much economic influence gun owners really have. I spent $9 on a little rubber stamp that says “gun owner” and now I stamp all my currency. Don’t worry, it’s legal.

How many billions of dollars do you think gun owners put into the marketplace? Enough to make people take notice?

Here is the deal: If 1,000 people email a request for one of these stamps, we at Concealed Carry Magazine will get to work to find a supplier and see if we can start a money-stamping, pro-gun economic movement. If you would be willing to join in send an email with the words “Money Stamp” in the subject line to editor@usconcealedcarry.com.

If you flood me with emails, maybe we can flood the market with currency that shows how much influence gun owners have on the economy.

Gun owners put a lot of money into this economy. Let’s show the world just how much we actually spend!

By stamping our cash, we can show the world how much money we put into the economy. Let’s make an impact. A million here and a million there, pretty soon we are talking about real money.


TOPICS: Business/Economy
KEYWORDS: banglist; guns; money
Short video at link. I get a warm & fuzzy feeling thinking about how much liberal heartburn this would (will?) cause.

Imagine a store owner refusing your money because you are using money stamped like this. You'd know where you should no longer shop.

Maybe it is just me, but I think it would be more effective if you posed a website: gunowner.com or whatever. It would provide an additional opportunity to educate and spread the word.

Imagine being a libtard and receiving change that has “gun owner” stamped on it. They’d have a fit.

Someone on facebook just posted a diatribe about how everyone should immediately leave a business if someone comes in carrying. It said that even if you are at a restaurant in the middle of a meal, just leave without paying.

Here’s the meme accompanied by a picture of a holstered gun....
“A good solution to open carry idiots. My proposal is as follows.. we should all leave. Leave the food on the table in restaurants. Leave the groceries in the cart, in the aisle. Stop talking or engaging in the exchange. Just leave, unceremoniously, and fast.

But here is the key part, don’t pay. Stopping to pay in the presence of a person with a gun means risking your life and your loved one’s lives. Money shouldn’t trump this. It doesn’t matter if you ate the meal. It doesn’t mean if you received food from the deli counter that can’t be resold. It doesn’t matter if you just got a haircut. Leave. If the business loses money, so be it. They can make the activists pay.” Professor Jack Russell Weinstein (put out by daily koss)

Pfft! Almost every liberal I know espouses the “virtue” of virtual money and a “cashless society.” Most of them want to do away with physical cash. When asked about their intentions, they state that it’s wasteful while ignoring the capabilities of agencies to track everything you do and buy through the use of virtual money. Then the old trope, “I have nothing to hide, let them track me!” is bandied about.

Does this mean the liberals are going to immediately leave all of the states that allow open carry and concealed carry? I hope they like Canada.

Sad.

More of it than you think out there. Besides, once you saturate it with the message it will show up even for infrequent cash users.

So Larry LibTard only drops a few ones and fives every week. Think of his consternation if these bills showed up when he does?

Remember, it doesn’t take much to push these people into abject hysteria. Witness Pelosi this week. She committed a significant breach of protocol, looked damn foolish, and what the pubbie said was outright benign compared to the slime the Dems spout every day on the House floor.

That is a tactic that can work both ways. Don’t buy, read or cite any of the media’s fairy tales. Don’t patronize gun-free zone establishments. Let’s see who suffers more.

Especially if it's a *gun free* zone and the person with the gun looks like Obama's [mythical] son.

I already know people who do not enter establishments that do not allow concealed carry. I know someone who will drive miles around states that do not allow conceal carry.

This idiot “professor” is just trying to get out of paying his restaurant bill.

John Birch, an Illinois gun rights activist in the late ‘90s, did exactly the same thing. I still have the “Gun Owner Dollar” stamp he sold.

Funny. Imagine how they’d feel when they had to spend the same bill!
