Clemson, SC business Backstreets Pub posts ignorant sign and feels the wrath of the 2A crowd. Now they can't kill their social media presence fast enough to keep up with the backlash. This will be a fun one to follow.



Facebook Page

EDIT: They pulled their page down already  BUT, you can still find them here as well:

Yelp Page

Twitter (@backstreetspub)

Trip Advisor

Head over and tell these jackasses what you you think about their sign. You can't leave comments on their wall, but you can comment on their posts AND leave a message on their website. Give them a piece of your mind.


Hat tip Say No To Gun Bans for the image.

An 8.5 x 11 piece of paper in a window would carry no legal authority in my AO.






But anyway, these tards deserve all the criticism coming their way.

I've got news for them, that signage does not meet our ccw signage requirements in this State.

Oh, and they picked the wrong locale to post signage liks that, lol.

I have been there many a time.  Not surprised by the sign as that place is a favorite for the small hippy crowd in Clemson....and grad students.  It was always a welcomed change to the over crowded Frat heavy bars, more mature crowd sometimes.  Anyway, I have not been in years and it looks like I will not be returning.

I agree, I got a laugh.  Some people went way overboard while others were quite intelligent about their posts.  The contrast made it funny.

As it turns out, it is perfectly legal to carry in that establishment because their signage does not meet no-carry sign requirements under state law.

Meh ... I don't care.

At least he's honest about it.

Having said that ... I would do everything in my power to make sure I can divert all the business I can from that establishment and celebrate his business failing and his family going hungry.

I have driven by that place on the way to games, but never stopped in.  Can gladly say I never will.  It always looked to me like one of those places where the owner was trying to forever be a "college frat boy".

Actually, I'd stop in and get a couple of waters while I looked at the menu for 30-45 minutes, then I'd let them know why I'm not buying anything on the way out.

Why is this such a foreign concept to so many? Why on earth would a gun owner WANT to spend money at an establishment that is anti-gun rights?

Review from the Yelp page. LOL

"Lousy food lousy service.  Overall a very douchy atmosphere.

There is no point in eating at a place that clearly hates America so much.  

Excerpt from the menu:
"Putin Pie
Communist fries
Obama Omelette
Mao's Macaroni"

Douchy.  Very douchy."

1 star after 200+





I wouldn't even click through to read the reviews from my phone.





Yelp is going to make a killing offering to resolve those negative reviews.

 



Each star is worth a nearly 10% increase in sales...



As a result, businesses are suing over bad reviews on yelp. If you lie - I would at the very least expect a letter from their lawyers. The cost of the letter is worth it considering what a negative yelp review means in dollars and cents.
