There is a lot of confusion / debate/ perhaps misunderstanding, regarding the Cake shop owner, Chic-fil-A and business that post No Firearms.
It's been asked by a few, How can you support business X's beliefs but not Business Y??
For me it is easy.
Even though i despise the places that post No Firearms I respect their right to do so
The Cake maker and CFA same thing. They made a decision to Not support a group they do not agree with.
THE DIFFERENCES BEING
With me When it comes to not patronizing a business
I call, Write letters, send E-mail and sometimes FAX my concerns and why i no longer do business with them.
NOW the Left (as they shall be called) Do it differently
Instead of peaceful means what they do is
Throw a temper tantrum, get hysterical and generally (SOP) get as many other hysterical people to throw a temper tantrum.
Since they more than likely do not work they have the time to do this. They target a place they do not agree with and make their life miserable until some form of compensation is given. Then they go away.
Imagine if like minded folks like us cried like a child and did the same thing?? It would not work because we for one reason or another have basic principles we live by
Group Lefty has
TOLERANCE AND DIVERSITY Which they do not tolerate any opinion which differs or conflicts with their's
You choose which side of the fence to sit on. Myself, agree or not with anyone here, know where i sit.
ETA: No matter how much we / I detest something i unlike the DU "lefty crowd" will not smash windows of innocent business owners, burn cars to the ground or assault citizens and LE's just because i can. After all there is another 2 weeks before my monthly trust fund check gets deposited in the account, oddly enough of the bank i am outside screaming at.
That is what separates the men from the boys.

Thanks, was surfing till 2am and had a brief moment of clarity right after i turned laptop off. the fact i still remember what i was going to post is, Halleluiah, a miracle of it self. Now back to my meds.
Protest can be successful with out burning a place to the ground.
You're spot on Jim. We hold the same views on this topic.
The Left has no principles, the ends justify the means for them. Childishness, selfishness, and intolerance are their standards of conduct. They prove it every day of their miserable lives.
I agree Jim...
AHHH Hypocrisy! It makes my head hurt! [Bang]

Protest at World summit and Big 8 or what ever it's called. In seattle and other places around the world. The DU and anarchist groups start peacefully then once the crowd gets big enough, bam out come the torches.
There is an alleged suspect who "allegedly" torched a building in Ft Collins

Another Peaceful Protester who may or may not have gone to far.
Do any of you follow current events or too busy in mom's basement??
Jesus, y'all be too much for me sometimes
Just curious, outside of "Denver University" what does DU stand for? I know BB (Brady Bunch) but I guess now I'm confused as to what DU means... I take it it's a lefty organization we want not a single thing to do with...
Nah...Jim and Ronin are best buddies [Tooth]

Point 1: The DU folks are nuts, and should be arrested and prosecuted for any illegal acts.
Point 2: regarding conservative behavior to dissenting opinions. See "Dixie Chicks Boycott 2003".

Not the best example... Country music is a conservative dominated music genre. That was more them instigating more than anything, not conservative behavior going out of control. That would be like going to an NRA meeting and screaming all gun owners are dumb hick rednecks that murder people, you should have known better.

That wasn't conservative behavior out of control? Talk about rationalizing infantile behavior. I'm of the opinion that folks are responsible for their own actions, and the widespread boycott and destruction of albums can't be excused by "they instigated it". Sheesh.
Damn it ronin, don't you have a computer? Look it up, haven't you been paying attention?[ROFL1]
Next time just post a link for "let me google that for you". haha
As for staying on topic, I'm with you Jim. The behavior of a lot of these minority and special interest groups, is extremely unbecoming. I have a very hard time feeling sorry for anyone who behaves so childishly en-masse, even if they might have a point to their complaints.
If they can't get a grip, grow up, and create positive dialog, then I don't want to have anything to do with them.
Your point about respecting the right of anti-2A businesses is absolutely perfect and we really should be referencing this kind of analogy more often.
The next moron that hotlinks to DU gets a time out.
You hotlink to them, they follow it back, Then I have too deal with them.

Sheesh, it was a link to let me google that for you, not them. I'm sorry I hit a nerve. Others be warned.

I'm not a computer guy, so just asking. What does this mean? "You hotlink to them, they follow it back, Then I have too deal with them." Not trying to be a Dick, I really don't know.
