People who are offended needn't shop there. There's no reason to threaten violence over it.
Violence maybe the only option especially since they can't get no one fired.

OK, so a billboard is making light of an issue and in poor taste. Then, Democrats/Liberals/Left-wingers should protest every billboard in that town that has ever made light of an issue.

The people protesting the billboard are idiots. And I have voted "D" in every Presidential election since 1988.
You are the type of Democrat I would hang out with vs. an SJW liberal one.

On Yelp and Google Reviews, lefties are giving the establishment 1 star, while those on the right and those that believe in free speech are giving the establishment 5 stars. Yet neither sides have yet to visit the establishment. I hope Google and Yelp steps in and shut down the reviews section of the establishment until this situation clears and the left looks for a new victim to terrorize in the name of sexism and racism.
