Knitting Store Owner Tells Women’s March Supporters To Buy Their Yarn Elsewhere
The Huffington Post ^ | 1/26/2017 | Rebecca Shapiro

Posted on 01/26/2017 7:55:39 AM PST by knittnmom

Things don’t seem so joyful over at The Joy of Knitting. Elizabeth Poe, the owner of the Franklin, Tennessee shop, published a post on her store’s Facebook page earlier this week that asked customers shopping for yarn in support of the Women’s March to take their business elsewhere. “The vulgarity, vile and evilness of this movement is absolutely despicable,” Poe wrote in a post that was shared over 5,000 times and attracted more than 7,000 comments. She added, “As the owner of this business and a Christian, I have a duty to my customers and my community to promote values of mutual respect, love, compassion, understanding, and integrity.”

“The women’s movement is counterproductive to unity of family, friends, community, and nation.”

I agree. I keep asking these supporters ‘what rights are they fighting for.?’ They can’t answer. They keep going back to how women fought for the rights we have now. I ask again, what rights are you fighting for Now? What equal rights do women not have now?

They can’t answer the question. Not one.

ME either, but it was worth it. Note that there was not a single mention of Pres. Trump, or politics, in her post.

She's the kind of lady that the protesters wish that they were.

She is getting slammed on her store’s Facebook page.

Yes, she is. The unhinged left-wingers are trying to destroy her business, leaving thousands of 1-star reviews. If you're on Facebook, take a moment and give her page a like. She's going through hell just for standing up for what's right.

Maybe someone can make this into a link for me? Thanks.

“”engaging in the reproductive act and refusing to reproduce.””

I’ve been saying for years what good are reproductive organs if they rely so much on abortions?

What you just posted says it the best I’ve ever seen - NOW if only I can remember it!!!

I don’t belong to Facebook. But I do knit. I should call her up and order something.

“”A sign on the door stating “We have wonderful customers of all different backgrounds, religions, and political opinions. This is a politics-free store” might do the trick.””

Don’t think that would do it. Wouldn’t she still be bound to sell to those degenerates when her principles remain the same?

That kind of sign would probably have the same impact as “BEWARD OF DOG” signs when you are admitting you have a vicious dog on the property - according to the law!

Hide all the pink yarn in the back until this hooey is over.

Thanks. :) Make the same analogy with any other organ system and you see how ridiculous contraception is.

“I want the pleasure of eating food but not the actual digestion.” That’s bulimia.

“I want the pleasure of breathing but not the actual respiration.” That’s asphyxiation.

“I want the pleasure of going to the bathroom but not the actual excretion”. Not sure what that is....intentional jaundice?

Pleasure is not an end in itself but a reward your brain gives you for fulfilling a biological duty.

Sorry liberal ladies. You don’t have Obama’s Dept. of JustUs any longer to persecute this good woman out of business.

Easy fix. Clear the shop out of all pink yarns and fabric. If you don’t have it to seek, you can’t be sued.

Simply add a 200% upcharge on all pink yarn purchases due to "scarcity" and "increased charges" from yarn suppliers.
Even pretend to support their totally absurd silliness while clobbering them with completely outrageous yarn prices. LOL.
