They are around a dozen. all clothes hand made, no TV's, playing cards are evil, absolutely no meat. So my bad, I did not mean to include every SDA. Regarding the Mennonites, I was referring to their lifestyles, not beliefs.

Good thing he doesn't own a donut shop!!!!

SDA's are health nuts. no meat, mostly organic home grown veggies. No TV, etc. They are sorta like Mennonites.


They are very anti-gun though

For sake of clarity....I would like to state that the above is largely untrue.

SDA's do have a health message....and many practice good dietary habits, but roughly half of the world membership eat meat...there is no prohibition as a point of doctrine.

I do not personally know of any Adventists that do not have a TV or do not watch it. (Not on Sabbath except religious content)...but otherwise yes. Where do you think they get their news?

I will be happy to show you hundreds of Adventists who not only support your 2nd amendment rights, but own and shoot guns on a regular basis.

The link you posted is in reference to warring factions in the Solomon Islands, and has nothing to do with any position the church may have about firearms.

Lastly, they are really not anything like the Mennonite's. But that should get a good laugh at church this weekend.

Just wanted to make this clear.....I know its a bit off topic.

How about: "Do you have a warrant or are you here on official business? If not, I'm asking you to leave."

Nothing to do with firearms....

BTW, I'm not supporting this. If I owned a business, I'd want LEOs as customers. Money is green and it's free security!! And I like cops....

Of course, there is the other problem with this logic. If the officer refuses to leave, what are you going to do about it?

You cannot legally arrest him and you won't allow police on the property so they can. Could be an interesting dilemma.

BTW, I support the property owner's right to ban weapons, even with LEO's. I don't know how he can differentiate between on duty and off or official business or not, but if he can figure it out, go for it.
