Careful, the mind police may be on patrol. An owner of restaurants in Maine posted on her Facebook page that if you own an AR-15, or even just think it's OK to own one, you're not welcome in her two restaurants. Not carrying one, just thinking they're OK.
She was subject to withering comments on her Facebook page and took the comments down. She's now back peddling, saying she respects gun owners, just doesn't think they should own "weapons of war".
Supposedly the restaurants are among of the finest in Portland, but many locals say they're boycotting, though she denies business is down.
So what say you, would you entertain patronizing a business that attempts to police your thought process? Forget the gun aspect for a moment, just substitute any subject you might disagree with a shop keeper on. "If you even think it's OK to put catsup on my prime steaks....."
