I guess they want it in your face that they support scumney and if you don't like it they don't need your business. Because that's the chance they take. People may refuse to do business with them if they disagree with all that scumney stands for and in turn what the business owner believes.

I see a fair number of businesses, like plumbing, or A/C service, or handyman, or what-have-you, incorporating that Christian-fish into their logo or signage, and with faith-based named themes, like Grace Plumbing, etc.

I realize that's probably not the same downside, since I'm guessing there are very few people like me who would be actively put-off by that kind of display. But it's a funny trend. I'm pretty sure I never saw anything like that when I was a kid.

Partly because it's insulting to me and partly because I believe they'd rip you off quicker than others would. It's as if they have a god-given right to be unethical. Self-righteous jerks, all of them.

And I see contractor trucks with scumney bumper stickers and back in 2008 McCain/Palin. I always found that a bad business practice because there are people who will avoid them because of it.

When they answer, or hang up, or on their voice message.

No, thanks. If I wanted to be 'blessed' I would select what religious organization I go to. A business that inflicts that on me will not get my money!

Saw a nice looking place and headed that way. Then I saw a tea party flag.

We found another restaurant.

If the asshole had kept his politics to himself, he's have had four more customers that day.

That probably isn't a big deal out here in christian conservative land and their business will not suffer. But if someone were truly put off by that, they may choose another photography company.

I really think, stupidly, some of these businesses don't want your business or care if they lose your business if you don't support their views. Haven't we read things over the years where some conservative businesses have refused to serve people who don't have the same views and beliefs?

I wonder if these places realize that they lose customers by declaring their political affiliation...and I'm sure it's the same whether the business supports republicans or democrats. This country is soooo polarized I fear it will crack.

you ask for it, isn't the special time.

"Oh, that's only for happy hour or only for lunch, or only for carryout, or only M-TH, or...."

Then the consumers just may reciprocate..


Thanks to information revealed from DU, I will no longer do business with Papa Johns, Home Depot, Chik Filet, etc.

Their businesses fail. Or they get laid off.

Who knows where this guy got the capital to start the business, too.

And the government does not take care of anybody. They act like it's either/or, full time on public programs or never.

I've seen several businesses that have the "I built this" or "small businesses need Romney" signs around my area. They won't be getting my business anymore. They can vote however they like but those signs scream "I don't want to serve Obama supporters" to me. So I will abide and not give them that distasteful task. When they do go under they can self-righteously blame Obama rather than their own arrogance. If they don't understand public relations 101 then it is a wonder they stayed in business so long as they have.

do they have any clue as to what the Mormon "religion" preaches?

It sure isn't the Judeao Christian bible.

It's a shame, I remember one of the early ones in Alexandria Va.

Now if Ledo Pizza did something like this, I don't want to know, lol. I will say that Ledo has gone downhill since they franchised it. They have a consistency problem.
