Oh god!

And this is not a race thing, I'm black and no one I know voted for Obama and WE DO NOT support him, whatsoever.

Impeach Obama.... I agree.

This is not a mall I support if they kick people out for being conservative!

Here in liberal california I have literally been "attacked" before for openly showing my views about Obama.. I grew up in and LOVE CA though I have just as much right to be here as liberals!

People have even accused me of being racist! LOL! Yeah idiots, I hate my own people, you got me! *sigh*

Spivack has a right to free speech just as everyone else. However, a private corporate entity, such as a mall in this case, has a right to management. They are not in anyway encroaching upon his First Amendment rights, they're simply not allowing him to peddle his wares upon their property. He is free to open up shop in another venue and continue his business.

You may not like it, but the corporation is well within their rights to do so.

My neighbors are black too, and they are cool as hell. They are totally with you and myself here!

We were all against Bush, and now against Obama.

My black neighbor Rob, he said "Bush and Obama are the exact same, fascists". And I was like "dude, your so freaking awesome!"

The media lies about us all the time to try to make us fight. When in reality they know we are joining forces against their agenda to destroy our beautiful nation.

And I am glad that they have no chance turning us against each other. Because without each other, we may not stand a chance in hell at gaining power back for the People. Black Asian Latino White, we are the People and we want only 1 thing.

Justice and Equality for all!

So a local mall has the right to put up a sign that says, "No Conservatives/Liberals/Other Party" allowed?

I do not think so, that is political discrimination. If this is legal, well the law needs to change!

My thoughts exactly, dude! They are just puppets and EVIL to the core, imo. Doesn't matter what color they are.

And yep the media are attempting to create more of a divide between the races and they are trying to paint anyone who doesnt like Obama as a "racist". Its rediculous.

Luckily more people are waking up and seeing this!

It's not just a local mall, but the biggest mall in North Carolina. I lived next to this mall just a few months ago. Interesting though the support the shop owner is getting from the community.

This is what gets me about this whole situation. His lease is about to be up and they are essentially kicking him out, by not renewing his lease.

So the mall is within it's rights by not renewing the lease, but the thing about it is they sell pro-Obama paraphernalia in the same mall. So they just got lucky by his lease running out. Because there is no legal recourse for the mall to kick them out.

Good news is some other malls in the area have offered him a place to set up his Kiosk. I do feel he could have a lawsuit possible, but there isn't a very good chance of him winning even though it is obvious that the mall is not renewing his lease because of political ideologies.

Oh yea, he same owner of this mall property, Simon (something or another) is the same company(person) that revoked the license from the people in Atlanta that were having a Tea Party protest, on Simon's property.

I have shopped at this mall as well, and you can darned sure bet I'll not shop there again.

I wonder what would happen if I wrote a letter to one of the local malls and complained that the vendor that sells Obama merchandise is offensive. Hey...I think I will. Bet you nothing except a letter (if that) dismissing it.

I saw this man inteviewed on TV.

He is not a nut job.

He's just a business man who sell politically oriented material--a lot of it humourous.

He said the Impeach Obama bumper stickers were meant as a joke. They went on sale the day after Obama was elected or took office, I'm not sure.

At any rate, the whole thing stemmed from one complaint from one woman who was working at another store in the mall.

It is just an example of how intolerant the tolerant left can be.

People confuse freedom of speech and think it means you can say what you like and have no consequences. Just because you have a freedom to say something doesn't mean others need to stand by it and support you. In the private sector the owner can do what he feels will be best for the business and if he feels a certain store will cause him to get less patrons then he should kick them out.

Last time I checked there are many more people for Obama then against.

Now, if he was asked to remove his conservative bumper stickers, then you might have a point. But they didn't. He was asked to vacate the premises, instead. There is no breach of the First Amendment.

Technically, you're right. The mall is private property, but the man is being punished and his business jeopardized for selling material that offended one person, or at least only one person who complained.

I would bet a dollar to a donut that without much trouble that you can find some retailer in that same mall who sells something with profanity on it.
