Snort. That pretty much sums it up, but here is some background: Why does Backstreets Pub & Grill in Clemson, S.C., “suck at life”?
@BackstreetsPub I corrected your sign for you.@jlhowe @RichardShiller @TwitchyTeam #2Ahttp://t.co/rtU7s81r2C . pic.twitter.com/pRaSKACzjc

Boom. You see, that sneering sign was posted at Backstreets Pub & Grill. The owner then doubled and tripled down on Facebook. A righteous backlash swiftly erupted.

@BackstreetsPub an apology goes a long way, and is free.

The bar owner did not apologize and instead posted thanks to alleged supporters.
Thanks to all the locals and friends of backstreets that have overwhelming supported me today.

Yep. The Facebook page has now been made private, so it cannot be accessed. However, evidently Backstreets forgot to de-link it from its Twitter feed. Genius!

Some of his best friends are guns, guys! For serious. Plus, military and stuff. Get it now, “mouth breathers”?
Attempt at backpedaling? FAILED.

@BackstreetsPub I assume you are a douchebag also since you are a concealed carry holder or are you excluded? Hypocrite maybe?

@BackstreetsPub Insulting legal gun owners and propagandizing for the illogical gun-control useful-idiots? …matters.
— ZeelandCap (@ZeelandCap) March 20, 2014
@BackstreetsPub doesn't matter how many guns you own. It's the sign you posted on your window that shows the true intent of your heart.

@BackstreetsPub No, after calling such a large majority of Americans "douchebags" it really doesn't matter.

Ding, ding, ding! But, hey, keep digging and spewing your nonsense. We “douchebags” totally support free speech. Speak! Speak like the wind! We love it.
We’ll end with a pointed question for the media:

We won’t hold our breath for an answer.
