Arizona gun dealer refuses business from ‘Obama voters’

Arizona gun dealer refuses business from ‘Obama voters’



A firearms dealer in a small east-central Arizona community is warning people who voted for Barack Obama that he does not want their business, and he is doing it rather bluntly.

Cope Reynolds, proprietor at Southwest Shooting Authority in Pinetop, Ariz., told TGM that he is he does not care if it costs him money. He’s making a political statement that may have wide-ranging reverberations.

...

Prior to the election, a sign that was posted outside of his store announced an “Obama bin Biden” sale, which brought criticism from pro-Obama residents in his community, according to a newspaper article.

...

To up the ante in his backlash business move, Reynolds purchased advertising space in the local newspaper. The advertisement reads, “Effective immediately, if you voted for Obama, your money is no good here. You have proven beyond a doubt that you are not responsible enough to own a firearm. We have just put a sign up on the front door to save you the trouble of walking all the way in here….”

Will be interesting to see if he loses any business from this action.

Wouldn't it be more accurately-

See, I'd have to walk in wearing an Obama shirt and buy something there.

That's what we used to call DITTO machines in the 60's.  Ah, the 60's.  We still had drop-and-cover, Civil Defense drills and patrols, hot teachers that looked like Laugh-In actors, and napalm.

We called them mimeos when I was in elementary school. I use that as the signature line when I'm posting from my phone, instead of the standard Tapatalk line about what model phone is being used.

I love the smell of mimeographed tests in the morning.
