boycott banner outside of antiGun establishments?
jFader:
With several recent announcements of national chains not allowing FireArms any longer per corporate policy......I have been thinking more about where I spend my money! Which is all fine & dandy but the majority of Americans & I would guess even the majority of gun owners don't put much thought into it...
Let me start by saying that I don't even know if I think this is a good idea or not! Just a brainstorm or maybe a brainFart.....
What do you think the reaction of the average casual gun owner would be if they walked up to chilotle for lunch & there were 2 guys holding a large banner that read something to the effect of 'chipotle doesn't support your 2nd amendment right to protect your family while dining here'.?
Or something like that....I don't really know how effective it would be, would it turn people away or make them think twice before spending money with that business?
I realize that there is the 'business owners right's.....but there is also the right to self protection!
I don't really know. Just looking for some feedback or other ideas
.
Obviously this one costs money to make a banner & man it!

You might be confused for a member of Westboro Baptist :) And if it was Chipotle, I would ignore said banner and carry in compliance with Nebraska state statute as I do now.....because its so good....
I am busting your chops a little on my first comment....

I would go to Qudoba where the food is better! Even though the one I go to is in the mall.... :laugh:
Do I think that it would effect there business? Possibly. I think that a lot of people that choose how to spend there money based on the companies firearms policy keep tabs on situations like this and keep a personal non friendly list. Joe blow that doesn't care about if he can about what companies do are going to comply and eat his burrito.

"God Hates People Who Hate Guns" ..... BwaHaHAHA!
I'm just wishing that there was a way that we could make their decisions hurt them financially because I just don't think they will take notice if I don't eat at Chipotle ever again!
I asked the plumber on the job site I'm working on today to check Chipotle (177th & Center) for a sign....apparently it remains unposted!
Maybe a better target would be posted businesses &/Or shopping centers! & maybe a better technique would be to go after them online/social media rather than buying a bunch of banners....if I had the answers I'd let everyone know!
