I think he’s going to have major problems with Apple too considering he’s using their company logo on his store and Facebook page. Copywright infringement......

Sounds like the Williams guy is a Loyalist.

While the implied analogy is valid - refusing to serve based on politics is bad business, note that Republicans in Northern Ireland have absolutely no correlation to the Republicans in the US.

For one, all the parties are socialist. There are basically four, differing only on their degree of acceptance of British rule: Republicans = Brits Out, Nationalists = moderate republicans, Unionists = moderate loyalists, Loyalists = kill Republicans.

Loyalist groups originated in response to Republican violence, i.e., IRA derived groups.

Uhhh ... I think this took place in the U.S. not in Ireland ... New Hampshire, I think. It was posted in the Lawrence, Massachusetts Eagle Tribune.

LOL! My bad.

My first thought when I see “Derry” and “Republican” together is the IRA.

Thanks for correcting!

i’ve said all along that this guy was simply singing a sick swan song to get his free 15 minutes, knowing he was never going to go back in business anyway, and so he never had anything at risk to lose ...

Not a problem. That was MY first reaction on seeing the headline as well.

Guess he was hoping that blue wave of new customers would save his failed business.

Not the best business plan, apparently.
