    Probably no one outside of Willoughby ever heard of this guy or his store but attack the president and you are a hero among some folks.

    Disappointed but not surprised the news played along with this stunt.

      Dumb but it is his business. This is just for show. You can't avoid receiving money that may have come from or passed through the hands of someone who disagrees with you politically. This is silly.

        This is considered attacking the president?

          Well yes but it's more a stunt like I call it originally. It's not a physical attack or a threat on his life if that's your typical Woody angle. This twat probably thinks, maybe correctly, that a lot of kids and musicians consider themselves left-wing firebrands and will think that it's cool. (I doubt he carries much at his store that an adult musician with purchase there)

          Like the people who would buy Nike shoes with Kaepernick's picture on the ad. I actually noticed it from Nickers on Facebook because he's been to the store and says the guys at dick otherwise.

            By the way his mealy-mouthed backpedaling stated that he wasn't Banning and a trump supporters he just preferred they shopped elsewhere. Sort of like putting up a sign saying we prefer not to serve Negroes or homosexuals or Michigan graduates. We will but we really don't want to so please...

                Skin color and sexual orientation aren't choices

                Political affiliation and college choice are

                        I feel unclean and dirty... I'd rather starve and go out of business than to take money from you? That's not an attack on Trump?

                        If you really believe it's not an attack you're an idiot. If you're just saying you don't think it's an attack to be contrary (if I can coin a phrase), it's typical Woody.

                          Yeah I don't know if I agree that's it's really a choice where your values align. I'd probably choose to be a Democrat like I was when I was young if that were true. Then I could sit around and circle jerk about how great I was with the rest of them. 

                          Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind...

                              How about a non-responsive whiny little swing and a miss? As usual.

                              But of course in your little brain making the statement he'd rather starve to death than take money that came from a supporter of a particular person is not meant as an attack, not at all. Idiot. ?

                                This is considered attacking the president?

                                Clearly he's a Trump hater is he not?

                                So what difference at this point does it make? I don't understand the purpose of nit picking over whether the store owners actions was an attack on the prez or not, unless your intention was to deflect from the real story here and go after Steve.

                                  Non responsive? I literally responded right below that.

                                    Well (name of previous poster), I'm not a big fan of constant exaggerated language. 

                                    There is also nothing to deflect from. The guy can do what he wants and get whatever consequences that entails.

                                      Probably no one outside of Willoughby ever heard of this guy or his store but attack the president and you are a hero among some folks.

                                      Disappointed but not surprised the news played along with this stunt.

                                      The sad part is it will probably stir up trouble, there is nothing good that can come from doing this.

                                        I'm guessing that some of these lefties, who had never heard of them before this it was a stunt , will go to the store buy some strings or picks or some other accessories.

                                          I guess he was going to lose his business, and figured lefties from all over would come there and start buying, yep, like Steve said.
