Owner of S.C. Pub Insults Gun Owners Across America With This Outrageous Sign

“NO CONCEALED WEAPONS ALLOWED. If you are such a loser that you feel a need to carry a gun with you when you go out, I do not want your business. Douchebag.”

That’s the message Backstreets Pub & Deli recently sent to gun owners with a sign posted in its store window. The backlash against the establishment, located in Clemson, S.C., was swift after the conservative website Twitchy posted several photos of the sign from Twitter.

The Washington Times reports that the pub has a one-star rating out of five on Yelp.com, “with pages upon pages of negative comments and reviews by Second Amendment supporters.”

Please name your business and cite its location, so those who carry concealed may oblige your desires.

I often miss those silly little signs businesses post.

Yo, staytrue, you stepped in it and it won't just wipe off.

Why no answer to these gun carriers that want to oblige your request? Where is your business and why don't you want law abiding citizens and their business?

Shouldn’t gun owners sue since he is denying business to gun owners? I mean, if gays can do it to Christian businesses, shouldn’t we do it?

So according to the sign, no CONCEALED carry, does that mean that one can wear “open carry” and tell this douchebag he is a lump-o-crap magnet?

I personally don’t want people packing in my house or in my business either. I would not call them names though.

So, you're willing to take absolute liability for their personal safety? Big of you.

I go out of my way to frequent a small gas station here in St. Louis - they have a large sign with a picture of a pistol and the words “CONCEALED CARRY ENCOURAGED” in green letters.

I like being welcome.

according to my $600 progressive bifocals

Man, unless money is no object you need to shop around. Mine are well under $200 from an independent lab in this area.

Anyone that I don't trust with a gun, I don't want in my house at all.

The second part, of course, is answering their question of "why does anyone need an 'assault weapon' or a high-capacity magazine? with "the same reason the police need them."

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BTdhVxva5KU

At 3:18 in the video:

Governor Cuomo and Mayor Bloomberg said that "assault weapons" are "weapons of war", and don't belong on the streets of America.

If that's true, why do the police need them? Who are the police at war with?

Who, indeed?

More from the article: “The owner of the pub, who identified to himself only as Pete, is already backpedaling. He said the sign was only temporary and that he regrets using the rude language.

“It just came out wrong because I was frustrated,” he said.”

Let’s be honest, the owner of the pub let his true opinion be known and now that he sees the risk to his business, he is regretting letting down the veil! In other words, just another selfish democrat leftist that bases his political preferences on emotions and then learns by experience that his preferences are wrongheaded.

I doubt that he will learn from this experience and begin to consider policies based on logic, reason and history. Instead, he will deflect blame to those that stand “in political opposition to him.”

“I would like to tell him and all anti-2nd Amendment thinkers:

If someone is willing to break the law and murder you do you really think they would be willing to obey the law and not use a gun?”

Well, here is the answer from one Obama hat wearing anti-gun protester: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FgcrT0enCA

Reporter, “What if someone wanted to kill you.”

Moron, “Well, then they just hafta be kill me!”
