Oregon businessman allegedly slapped over anti-Obama window sign - National Crime & Courts | Examiner.com

Kevin "The Geek" Kerwin, a business man who owns a computer shop in Lake Oswego, Oregon, said he was slapped by a woman over an anti-Obama sign in his window, Victoria Taft wrote Tuesday.

According to Taft, "Kerwin came to Oregon to get a fresh start after being wiped out by Hurricane Katrina."

She added that he started his business with the money he had in his pocket.

After President Obama said business owners did not get where they are on their own, Kerwin posted a sign in his window saying that he built his own business and Obama had nothing to do with it.

On Monday, Taft wrote, Kerwin was visited by an elderly woman from Dunthorpe, who reportedly berated him for his sign.

When he refused to remove it, she allegedly slapped him.

I would of bitch slapped her twice,once for slapping me and once for defending that sorry excuse for a president......

This man was also FORCED by the city to remove the original sign and make a smaller one.

Oregon has become contaminated with the same type of liberal parasites that destroyed California.

Where did you hear that?

The sign in the OP is the new sign. Here is what his shop window looks like now:

Rich progressives move here to escape the city, then tell us how we're supposed to do things.

Sadly, they outnumber us. They shut down the fishing and lumber industries, so all the natives have moved away, and we're stuck with nasty mockingbird/starling changeling citizens and UO potheads and academics. Blech.

Good for Kevin.

I like to see people exercising their rights...

Obama didn't say Obama had anything to do with his business.

We all use the same schools, roads, utilities, and water. You made a Post-It Note. He built a business. Dipshit.

Let me take a wild guess:

You're not an entrepreneur.



How'd I do?

Depends on if you consider buying a piece of real estate and renting it for profit to be an entrepreneurial activity.

I'm guessing the answer is "no" if I'm a liberal and "yes" if I'm a conservative.

EDIT: I should take credit for the paint job - which I did - and the plumbing repairs - which I did - but maybe while I'm at it I'll take personal credit for the road that leads to the house, and the cops that patrol the neighborhood?

Sure, if you consider a "slum" to be a rental property that is entirely up to code and in one of the better neighborhoods in the city.

Yep, and Romney would be smart to not waste a single campaign dollar anywhere on the west coast.
Complete lost cause.

She is free to slap him for it and he is free to press charges for assult if he wants to be like that about it.
