BET NOT ! Regardless of who wins , they should be responsible for getting them up , if not , then fine the campaign after a certain time , they just looks like hell
Here in Indiana the person runing for office is responcible for getting all signs removed and cleaned up within 5 working days - - - then there are substantial fines involved.

Since this was passed the cleanup is normally done in about 2 days!

That they do. I've been using them for years. Tape a target to it then jam it in the ground.

The campaign signs around here are cheap trash and not good for anything.

So there is a new privately owned sporting goods store nearby. I stopped in when they were closed on a Monday a few weeks ago. Ok, fine, I'll be back another day. I stopped two more times during the advertised open hours, and they were closed. I decided that was strike two.

Today I stopped in again. Lights on inside. I get out of my car and noticed the door said no loaded firearms beyond this point. Not a state or county issued sign, but nicely done lettered on the door. I stepped inside (while ccw'ing) and asked if a licensed ccw was ok. He said no way, if you want to come in here you will have to leave your gun in your car. So I got in my car and left.

I didn't get enough sleep last night, so maybe I'm a bit grumpy. But, I voted, no ccw allowed there. I stopped at a gas station I've never been to, no ccw there. I gave blood and donated $ to the storm victims at the red cross, no ccw there. Then of all places a gun store.

Keep in mind he also advertises ccw class training. Is there any legitimate reason he would not allow ccw licence bearers that right? Or am I missing something?

No, it's him. He is in the wrong business. Being flighty about being opened during posted hours, maybe he shouldn't be in any business. I feel pretty confident it will work out and a better business person will occupy that shop when this asshat looks for second year capital.

Hell we get to chamber rounds at my lil local shop , well that is if your a regular and you dont or have not ever swept every one in the room with yours or a display .

I dont like being swept by pink rugers

Oh and yea , I forgot . Ben Franklin can take his day light savings and shove it up his decomposed ass . For me it means , kids go to bed LATER and then they wake up EARLIER ! Man this sucks , use to be fun back in the bar days when you got a extra hour to throw down and pick up chicks but when you have kids ......

Yup! In a MS firearms forum i have visited, there is a specific stickified thread to list all the traitors to the 2A. Maybe that would be a good idea in the individual state forums?
