Wouldn't it make more sense to prove yours is correct? Or, is it correct because you found it on the
internet.


At this point I think I have lost track of what Kevin is trying to
prove, other than that he is right about something, whatever it is.


wiggle wiggle wiggle.....

Even worse. I had Walmart pizza for lunch.
Didn't know that many businesses bar firearms in SC.
Now it's Starbucks, but they're only "suggesting" you keep your
firearms
at home.
Though I don't go to Starbucks, I understand they're a big outfit.
Their "suggesting" reminds me of how it went with cigarettes.
Started with something like "We appreciate if you don't smoke here."
We'll see if the NRA responds. Maybe they figure they should keep
their
traps shut on this one.




Maybe Starbucks wants to try to avoid a massacre like that one the gun
nut committed in Seattle a few years ago at Cafe Racer.

-------------------------------

The whole thing is stupid. Let's assume some nutcase decides he's
going to shoot up a bunch of people. He decides Starbucks would be a
good place because it's always crowded. Maybe he's even a ****ed off
former employee of Starbucks. So, he gathers his gun, drives to the
local Starbucks, gets to the door and ..... Damm! He can't go in.
They don't allow guns.


Kind of like the guy who shot up the theater in Colorado. Oops, he picked a theather that
specifically didn't allow guns. Kind of proves the theory that those who are rendered
defenseless are easy targets.

Perhaps the NRA doesn't give a **** one way or the other.


Just don't seem right letting NRA members, and honest, upright gun-
owners be treated like smokers.
Just don't seem right.
If the NRA won't stand up for the right for a legal and upright gun
owner to have a cup of coffee with his legal gun on his hip, who will?
Treating a gun-owner like you would a smoker! Disgraceful!
It ain't right, I'm telling you, it just ain't right.
What if somebody comes in to shoot the place up, and kill everybody?
Hell, that just happened in that DC Navy yard.
But I'm willing to give the NRA a chance here. It's still early.


Private businesses have the right to deny service to anyone they want.


No they don't! You would still see Whites Only signs in Maryland.


They would be most prominent in the county in which Harry resides.

How is a diner involved in interstate commerce?


I suppose someone could take the 1964 civil rights act to the SCOTUS
but it hasn't happened yet.


The Democrats are reaching back to an 1884 law to justify regulation of tax preparers.

Restaurants are covered under the Public Accommodations section of the
Civil Rights Law of 1964. That would be the law that drove the southern
white Democratic racists out of that party and into the waiting arms of
the GOP, where they and their descendents still reside.


If someone, anyone, came into the restaurant and started to make other customers uneasy
through their actions then that someone could be asked to leave.
