It was reported over the weekend that the owner of a gun store in Arizona is telling Pres. Obama's supporters he doesn't want their business.
Cope Reynolds, the owner of Southwest Shooting Authority, a gun store located in Pinetop, Arizona, took out a full page ad in a local newspaper that read: "If you voted for Barack Obama your business is not welcome."
The New York Daily News reports that Mr. Reynolds also posted a sign on the store's front door:
"If you voted for Obama, please turn around and leave! You have proven you are not responsible enough to own a firearm."
It is not known how Reynolds will identify Obama supporters and it doesn't seem likely that one would admit to having voted to reelect the president if they wish to purchase a gun at his store.
In an emailed statement, Reynolds wrote: "Obviously, this is nothing more than a political statement. Of course, it would be impossible to enforce. If they don't say anything, we'll never know. They could purchase whatever they wanted, and they would probably get a big kick out of thinking they are rubbing it in our face as they walk out the door."
Despite Mr. Reynold's personal attempt at "gun control," it has been widely reported that gun sales are on the rise though the reason behind demand varies from source to source. One theory suggests that citizens are stockpiling arms out of concern that President Barack Obama will tighten regulations on assault weapons, even ban them outright in his second term.

This sounds unnecessary to me. None would want to.
If a Democrat buys a gun, does it then get inspired to go make drive by shootings, rob banks, etc.?
So far the gloating and smirking is a dead giveaway.
See the sign

That's a brilliant turn of phrase and a rallying cry, which is now my tagline. Thanks Migraine.
These freeloaders are bleeding us dry. If you don't pay income tax, you don't have the right to vote for politicians that spend taxpayers' money.
Excellent post!

If thats what you really believe you don’t know much (maybe anything) about liberals/liberalism. Most liberals are gun owners. Certainly there’s a segment that isn’t, held up by the media for public consumption to perpetrate the myth. In the liberal mind gun ownership isn’t the question — its that you’re allowed. Liberals view themselves as morally and intellectually superior, above reproach, Mary Poppins in every way. You OTOH will never pass muster for ideological reasons. In their eyes you’re second class in need of a ruler to rein in your baser tendencies toward self sufficiency etc. Therefore, guns should be banned. When they say banned they mean for you not them. Like OCare once guns are sufficiently banned there will be waivers to go around to liberals only.
As a sort of corollary liberals have no problem with shooting people who oppose their views. They see it as perfectly right...think of Hitler, Pol Pot, Stalin etc etc.
Self ping for later read.
You’re welcome. I am honored.
