I think I would check to see if their prohibition on firearms was in place when they began the contest.  If it wasn't, they are disqualifying people they don't like after the fact.  Ought to be good for a lawsuit, which might bring the gun store more than the $5000 they were hoping to win.

Even if I had a need for office supplies, even if there was a Staples in my area, I still wouldn't patronize them.

Bravery and stupidity are often synonymous.  So are cowardice and intelligence.

"We Americans have been a rebellious band of freedom loving vagabonds from the very beginning. Our freedom from the crown and tyranny would not exist had it not been for the gun. That's a tradition we like to hold on to.  The same can't be said for the rest of you 'Subjects of the Queen'."--said to a Canadian friend who just doesn't get it.
