Staples office supply stores are running a contest. I'm OK with that.
Staples gets an entry from a guy who runs a gun shop.
Staples then denies the entry from the gun shop because Staples lumps LEGAL GUNS into the same category as ILLEGAL DRUGS. Also lumped in with ILLEGAL drugs are tobacco (I smoke the occasional cigar at the cigar lounge) and alcohol (been known to drink an adult beverage).
So if you want a Beer at the Baseball game then STAPLES doesn't like you.
If you want to pass out a Cigar when you have a new baby, then STAPLES doesn't like you.
And if you own a gun, be it for hunting or personal protection, then STAPLES doesn't like you.
Well, I tend to avoid the places where I am not welcome.

So ILLEGAL DRUGS are just like guns? Just like the occasional cigar I smoke? Just like drinking wine with dinner? WTF!?!
