Re: How to deal effectively with businesses with 30.06 signs

The focus here seems to be the best way to convince businesses to change their position based on attempting to explain to them why their choice is wrong and the threat of taking business away. I know the corporate chains are a black hole, but what about talking to the owner/manager of local places that put up signs to find out what their motivation is? knowing that, it seems it'd be easier to construct a campaign that would be effective. If the reasoning is that it's a reaction to the feedback they've gotten then it seems like a surmountable issue. if it's because the owner hates guns and gun people, probably not surmountable with any campaign.

I've also thought about trying a positive approach to the pro-carry business card idea. using the whataburger case as an example, I suspect that most will still patronize a place they want to patronize, and go CC to do it. how about pointing out to the business owner that you're pro-OC and would like the business to be pro-OC - as a part of actually patronizing the business. I was thinking about a card that says this and leave it when I sign the tab, or hand it to the cashiers for the manager, etc. I'm spending money in your business and I want you to know my position. Someone here said in another thread that the antis are likely actively voicing their opinion (and in a negative, threatening way) while the pros are likely silently present. I would hope that this would leave them with the positive view that these guys are pro gun, and spending money here.
