[QUOTE="JB Books, post: 2367788, member: 6889"] No not really. I am not Spock and you are not McCoy and we are not weighing the life of Captain Kirk against the lives of the Enterprise crew. (I'll send a gift card to whomever correctly identifies this episode. Come on you damn nerds!) It is the dude's business. He owns it. He either bought it or built it. It is his. He can refuse service for any reason other than discriminating against a protected class. People who carry guns are not a protected class. Damn, this is not rocket science. Now, allow me to address some anticipated responses. Someone will bring up the gays and the bakery. The gay couple should not sue the bakery. They should go someplace else. Why force someone to take your money? Hell, do what you guys do here when you don't like a car dealership...put the SOBs on blast and hope to hurt them with negative publicity. As for the war memorial, people need to come to terms with our past, and he fact that societal standards were different. Leave the damn memorials in place. Revisionist historians of any kind (not just Nazi apologists) are the cancers of truth. [/QUOTE]
