This is a good start. Businesses should require prospective patrons to swear under penalty of perjury that they will support a progressive agenda and reject the loathsome views of the republicans. Monitor customers' social media accounts and file criminal charges for perjury, trespass, and theft of services (by deception) against these ultra-rightist enemies of humankind. Shame, Shame! On the enemies of love and science!

The distinction between responsible gun owners and irresponsible gun owners is a distinction with only a modest difference. People are responsible until they aren't and then any guns that are around are used intentionally or unintentionally to kill kids, spouses, and the person holding the gun. We are all capable of momentary lapses in judgment, periods of mind altering depression, and mindless fits of rage. All of these things are more likely than encountering a person who means you harm and susccessfully dispatching them with a gun without hurting innocents. Police officers and soldiers can't reliably Accomplish that and it's their job.

In the face of so much inaction on issues I strongly support, including banning assault weapons, I have begun using my pock book to support like-minded business owners. First, as someone who vacationed in NC, I cancelled my plans once the anti-LGBT law was passed. I try and keep current on political stances and supporthe those who share my beliefs. My choice.
And for those idiots who say she is discriminating against assault weapons owners illegally, get a grip. There are no anti-discrimination laws protecting gun owners. Unlike LGBT people, disabled, women, and POC, the laws don't apply. Although, in certain backward states, I expect legislation soon. (Also places I wouldn't spend my hard-earned dollars.)
Economics is power. Those of us who share beliefs about guns and other human rights issues can use our power for good.

I don't feel safe around people with guns, and I know I'm not alone. What are our rights?
A few weeks ago, driving down a tranquil street in my neighborhood, I saw police activity. By the time I realized they weren't there for a bad traffic accident it was too late. They were there because a guy was in the street with what looked like a gun (it wasn't). That had not happened in this neighborhood since the early '90s. What if it had been a real gun and a stray bullet had hit me as I drove by? What kind of weapon would have stopped a stray bullet and allowed me to arrive home safely?

Thank you, Anne Verrill. The next time I am in Maine, I will make it a point to stop over in Portland to dine at your restaurant.
I have never owned a gun and never will. I loathe the gun culture & violence in America and wonder what has happened to the collective sanity of this country. Are guns really necessary in 2016?!?
As a mother of three children, I am horrified to think of the millions of pistol-packin' half-wits roaming around everywhere. Now their guns are even legal on college campuses.
God help us.

If an adult male “identifies” as a woman we must accept that he is a woman, but if an adult male "identifies" as an ISIS jihadist and murders dozens of homosexuals that does not make him an ISIS jihadist homophobe, it makes him a right-wing extremist gun-nut.
The first thing I do when I sit down at a restaurant is put my .357 on the table and ask to see the menu.
difference between liberals and conservatives...
liberals like to force the business to serve them with the threat of government guns.
conservatives like to boycott the business and watch their business go tits up into bankruptcy for poor decisions .
She's right. If she doesn't want to give food to armed refugees, that's a good call. I mean, look what happened in Paris. I love Paris, so let me tell you, it's no good when you're having your dinner with your family and getting shot by armed terrorists. It's the right thing to do. Why would one go to a restaurant with a weapon if not for killing people as ISIS is calling out for?
all the CC people will be outraged. IF i dont like how a business does soemthing i just dont do business with them. unless its like ATT and Sprint and shit because they all suck and i have to have a fucking phone for work.
