    Obama Voters No Longer Allowed at Pinetop Gun Store -- "Effective Immediately"

    If you're one of the 736 people in Pinetop who voted for President Obama last week, let it be known that you are no longer welcome inside one of the town's gun shops.

    At least, that's according to the Southwest Shooting Authority's owner, and the advertisement (pictured to the right) that he took out in the local paper, the White Mountain Independent.

    We called the store today -- at 928-367-AK47 -- to try to ask to the owner, Cope Reynolds, how he's going to identify Obama voters who try to sneak in, but no one picked up the phone. We also sent an e-mail, so we'll let you know if he gets back to us.

    UPDATE: Reynolds explained how the ban will be enforced. Click here to read the details.

    However, here's the explanation he sent over to AmmoLand:

    To Whom it May Concern:

    I thought you all might be interested in this.

    We will try to demonstrate once again that the bottom line for our business is principle, not money.

    Yes, it has been damaging at times but our values are intact.

    Effective immediately, if you voted for Obama, your money is no good here. You have proven beyond a doubt that you are not responsible enough to own a firearm. We have just put a sign up on the front door to save you the trouble of walking all the way in here...

    I took this ad out in our local paper. It will come out in the White Mountain Independent tomorrow, 9 November

    Sincerely,
    Cope Reynolds

    We can also see from Reynolds' social-media accounts that he's joining the secession talk, and isn't a big fan of "Libtards."

    Below, see the sign posted on the front door -- "to save you the trouble of walking all the way in here" -- followed by the full newspaper ad from Southwest Shooting Authority.

    Where do these Arizona -- excuse us, "Colt Single-Action Army Revolver State" -- gun-nut stereotypes even come from?

    This is nothing more than petty sour grapes (like when Alec Baldwin and Barbara Streisand said they were going to leave the country if GWB was elected). As the link says,

    However, Reynolds sent us the following e-mail explaining the situation:

    Obviously, this is nothing more than a political statement. Of course, it would be impossible to enforce. If they don't say anything, we'll never know. They could purchase whatever they wanted, and they would probably get a big kick out of thinking that they are rubbing it in our face as they walk out the door. Some folks are easily amused that way.

    However, if they own up to it, we will not serve them. This goes way beyond gun control, which many think is why we did this. I should have as much right to post a sign on my door as those that post "No Guns" on their doors.

    Sincerely,
    Cope Reynolds

    So if you voted for the president and you want to buy a gun from this store, just don't say you voted for him. Unless you're looking to make headlines yourself.

    Basically. At least he probably won't have to cut his employees' hours or lay anyone off to pay for "Obamacare" because his business is under the threshold.

    The boohoo acting out has been ridiculous. Even worse than the empty "I'm gonna move to _____" BS we've heard from both sides in the past.

    I think it's hilarious, and kind of true. If you voted for Obama, you probably aren't responsible enough to own a gun. lol Besides, why would an Obama supporter want something they wanna make illegal anyway? We should ban them from getting 16 oz. + drinks too. Razz

    There is NO WAY I am defriending him... i have to keep my eye on this guy! LOL

    There are many more out there like my coworker and this gun shop owner.. scary

    I have a guy who went to my high school like this. I keep him on FB just to see exactly what he is going to do or say next. He's so into getting to carry his concealed weapon and is all about guns. I don't think he's crazy but he says and does some extreme shit.

    They think their snubbing will shame or insult people, but this hurts absolutely nothing or no one but their own business. Obama voters, and some unpetty Romney supporters, will simply take their business elsewhere and not give it a second thought.
