To: Psalm 144

Well I was messing with you, giving you a hard time for advising a business owner to be a wimp and just shut up, go along, to get along. That is the net result of your advice by the way.

BUT - I don’t think this stupid sign, that does not even appear to be official government signage, changes the Constitution. There are pockets in this country where businesses have lost the ablity to refuse service, but such is not the law of the land. Businesses, by and large, do reserve the right to refuse service. If we capitulate on that, we will certainly lose it totally one day however.

Anyone can be sued for anything at any time. If you live in fear of that, you are a sheep.

“Anyone can be sued for anything at any time. If you live in fear of that, you are a sheep”

And if you shove your hand into a grinder you are a fool.

I don’t know what the store owner’s profits are, or what the particular burdens are to sell guns, and whether that ability is a ‘right’ or a ‘privilege’, but law suits are expensive things, and administrative law is a tyrannical thing, and this guy is courting the loss of his business from a couple of angles.

As for ‘wimp’, ‘fear’ and so on, the Celts thought that body armor was an indicator of cowardice. Romans did not. The results which followed demonstrated some doctrinal deficiencies on the part of the Gauls. I am with Patton. The point of the exercise is to make the other son of a bitch die for his country, not throw oneself on a theatrical sword.
