Excluding Obama Voters from your Place of Business
We've had our discussions of "No Weapons" and gun-buster signs before, and I've pretty much come around to Guy's perspective that if the sign is not specificly excluding the person as opposed to the inanimate object, then it has no force of law. However, these have been stories about the Southwest Shooting Authority in Pinetop, AZ posting a sign which reads, “If you voted for Obama, please turn around and leave! You have proven that you are not responsible enough to own a firearm!”
While this is far from an absolute exclusion, I could imagine such a sign properly worded would be.
"All persons who voted for Barack Hussein Obama for President in 2008 or 2012, and their dependents, are excluded from these premises under penalty of Criminal Trespass (IC 35-43-2-2(b)(2))."
Add any flowery language, such as not being trustworthy, whether with firearms or otherwise, you like.
Would this notice have legal weight?
