Gun Store: Obama Voters Not Welcome (weapons, election, elect, state)

[Darkatt]

I don't agree, but I still find it kinda funny. I have several friends who own guns, and voted for Obama. While I don't agree with their choice for president, it doesn't mean I think they are irresponsible and should not own a gun.

The owner of an Arizona gun store said he will not sell weapons to customers who voted for President Obama because “you have proven that you are not responsible enough to own a firearm.”

I would call the owner bitter, but if he wants to lose the business, that's his right.

A business that turns away customers for something petty like this probably won't last very long.

Uh huh. And he'll KNOW this info how exactly?

Every time a story like this pops up it only highlights the ignorance of the people coming up with these ideas

LOL! Another 15 minutes of fame for our amusement. It's sad that some people's lives are so empty.

“If we lose the whole business it doesn’t matter,” he said. “The bottom line is — my values.”

Gotta give the man credit for standing up for his values even if it costs him his business.

If everybody who voted in America was as dedicated to the values they hold dear as this man is, the election results may have looked quite different.

It also highlights the ignorance of people who respect him for standing up for his values when he's obviously unable to do any such thing. Talk is cheap, and clearly impresses the easily impressed.

"I'm taking my marbles and going home" is a value? Maybe to a spoiled 10 year old, but not to a thinking adult.

Not sure about that. The qwner is counting on increased sales among conservatives to make up for any loss among the few gun toting Obama voting fools.

Agreed. Most of the hate this guy is going to receive is going to come from people or groups that not only live out of the area (or out of the entire state), but people who would never purchase guns or ammo to begin with.
