Most of the private owners of independent bookstores on the West Coast are vile left wing maggots. They hire people like themselves to be clerks.

When I tried to by Rush Limbaugh's book, I was literally made fun of by the three independents and one chain store in my town. My older son at that time lived in Bend, Oregon, a conservative town. He bought 3 copies for me. I photo copied the bill and sent a copy to the three local owners and the manager of the chain.

The Black Advenger came out with his book and it was Deja Vue again. I went on Amazon.com and bought a couple of his books and sent copies to the lib book store owners and the chain manager.

That pattern has been repeated on every conservative book from Dr Lott's book "More guns, less crime!" to the latest books.

Two of the three independents have closed their doors and blamed the chains, Walmart and Costco for their demise. The surviving independent is really hurting. That store and the chain place all fishing and hunting magazines on the lower shelf behind every other magazine. If you wanted one, you had to get on your knees. Their Peta Creeps posing as clerks just laughed.

Our local fishing and hunting supply store now carries all of these magazines and they laid out on the checkout counter to buy with no pain. This store will order any fishing or hunting book and get it within days if they don't stock it. The PETA driven left wing stores would take forever and then say they couldn't get the books.

Thanks to competition on the internet, Walmart and Costco and our local hunting and fishing store, I haven't bought a book or magazine in about 5 years from these local left wing book stores.

Right on, Grandpa Dave; Don't get the least bit worked up by these folks; let the market take care of them. If they only want to sell to a narrow audience, so be it. If they don't want to carry topics that they dislike, instead of trying to maximize revenues, they'll simply go out of business.

Good for you! And your assessment of West Coast independent bookstores is right on the money. Their tunnel-vision will be their downfall though. More people like yourself will go elsewhere for books and the liberals will continue to go out of business. Good Riddance!
