KATY, TX (KTRK) — Once a sign for
advertisement, a Katy business uses its marquee as a sign of the times, echoing
America’s divided political views.
And nothing
makes a statement more than politics.
Tactical firearms in Katy is known for igniting intense
debate. Currently on the sign outside the business is a message that reads, ‘I
like my guns like Obama likes his voters. Undocumented.’
The store gained national attention last year when its owner
discussed gun rights with rocker Ted Nugent and Texas politicians. People who
live near the store on Mason Road make it a point to check out its sign.
It’s known for
its catchy phrases that appear every Wednesday.“ I think that so much is going
on in the government that we need to speak up and say what we believe,” said
Katy resident Nancy Newbrough.
The phrases are
apparently a team effort. Employees at the gun shop get together and come up
with an eye-catching statement each week.“Political statement, yes.
Freedom of
speech? Yeah,” said Katy resident Jason Wilfon. “Some people might not like it,
some will.” ABC Local
