Gun Store Owner Bans Obama Supporters: Not Responsible Enough to Own a Gun
Repost This Article
A week after Cope Reynolds, the owner of Arizona’s Southwest Shooting Authority, took out an ad in the local paper and posted a sign at his store banning Obama supporters from entering, Cope says that business is booming due to the attention his business has received from his anti-Obama promotion.
Mr. Reynolds says he has had hundreds of calls and emails from news organizations and supporters as well as the occasional fire breathing liberal – and yes, even the rare death threat – but that the proof of his genius business promotion can be found in his cash register:
“People are saying that I’ve alienated half of our customers,” Reynolds said, laughing. “No, I haven’t. I haven’t alienated any of my customers, because the people who voted for Obama don’t buy guns here. They don’t come here at all. I haven’t alienated. I’ve improved things. I have packages sitting on my desk to be shipped to places like Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, Idaho, Nevada and California.”
But can the gun store owner actually enforce his new partisan rule? According to Reynolds he won’t be giving litmus test’s, but says he is considering giving discounts to non-democrat registered voters. Furthermore, Reynolds says that if Obama supporters want to break his rule and purchase a gun from him without revealing their political affiliations, he’ll make room, somehow, for their cash in his already bulging register.
Reynolds fears that the re-election of President Obama is a near guarantee of bad things to come for American gun laws and his fears are mirrored among conservatives nationwide, due largely to the U.N. Gun Treaty/Small Arms Treaty, which the Obama administration conveniently stepped away from just a few short months prior to Election 2012. It’s nearly certain that the treaty will be picked back up and talks resumed now that Obama has won a second term – and with it what appears to be a dwindling of republican backbone to resist his agenda on many issues.

There was a foolish little bird that, thinking he would be taken care of, did not bother to fly south for the winter. With winter came bad times. Getting no help from the gov. and not knowing how to protect himself, the bird sat on the icy ground and was freezing to death. A cow happened by and PLOP! right on top of the bird. The warm cow pie warmed the bird. With the promise of better times, he began to mindlessly sing. A fox came by, heard the bird, dug him out of the cow pie and ate him! Moral- everyone who PLOPs on you is not your enemy. Everyone who digs you out of a cow pie is not your friend. If you are warm and happy in your little pile of PLOP, keep your mouth shut. You only prove that Mr. Reynolds is correct.

Smart marketer, this man.
LOVE his easy-to-remember phone number!
Hmmm. Federal law is on the store’s side. If a licensed dealer is transferring a firearm but becomes suspicious of the transaction for any reason, he is required to kill the deal. His suspicion need not be justified. The idea is that if, say, he overhears the potential customers talking about a gang rubout they’re planning to commit, he can keep them disarmed by refusing to sell them the guns they’re interested in. He doesn’t have to prove that the customers are indeed gangsters or are planning a hit. Similarly, if a customer seems to be unable to handle a firearm safely, he’s legally required to refuse to transfer the firearm. In this case, if the store owner has decided that Obama support is prima facie an indication of mental incapacity – an opinion which may be right or wrong but is at least arguable – then the Feds say he can’t sell Obama supporters guns. Q.E.D.
I have sold firearms in six different states over the years (wife and I are former military, moved quite a bit) and was always told by management, if I had ANY reason to doubt the buyer, they’d back me up on not selling the firearm.
In almost 30 years in the trade, BATF investigated only 2 of my buyers.
Owning a firearm is protected by the 2nd Amendment, but I don’t have to sell you one.
What? There are still republicans in America? I thought they all fled the country with the rest of the cowards and traitors. Huh, interesting.
Well….obviously the baby died and the afterbirth lived the day your mother gave birth to you.
The welfare checks are still clearing so there must be at least few republicans left behind.
Except that the welfare rolls are saturated with Obama-voting minorities.

Twisted backwards like only a true liberal would do.
Well, if there were no Republicans no one would be paying the bills.
re. The dipshit who commented on republicans leaving the country….hey asshole know one would be here to pay for your obama sponsored hyper welfare state…….get out of your mothers basement and at least appear to be lookning for a job
Cowards and traitors, quite interesting labels coming from a lib. Even though lib’s act like and think like juveniles they are responsible for denying our children the true historical education of the birth of our constitution & country.
They burden today’s youth with selfish spending, which will turn into a lifetime of oppressive debt for them as they struggle to raise their own children.
And if they fail to corrupt the children with those tactics then they can always snuff out their indefensible lives in the guise of “convenience”.
Seems to me the the labels “traitor” and “coward” are being applied to the wrong side.
