I doubt that any of this report is true. If the store had received a
threatening phone call, then a routine would be in place to trace any
additional calls. This statement would then warn the callers to not call.
It seems likely that the commie, nigger-loving store is seeking some free
publicity. I wonder if commie, nigger loving stores are franchisable -- I'd
like one too.
