Showing Original Post only (View all)Lauren Boebert may be forced to close her gun-themed restaurant after landlord yanks her lease [View all]
.
The Colorado Republican told The Daily Beast she and her husband were surprised last week to receive notice from their landlord, a cannabis retailer, that their lease for Shooters would not be renewed after the building's ownership changed hands last month, and the lawmaker said they would have to find another location or close for good.
"She didnt explain exactly why her business was being kicked out," the website reported. "A person familiar with the arrangement said the property manager felt he had a 'moral' imperative to close the business, and had planned to lease the space to another restaurant."
Milkin Enterprises, the company that owns the building, was formed days before buying it, according to Colorado business records, and the two men on its incorporation documents run the cannabis dispensary Rifle Remedies, which shared an address with Shooters until 2019, and Boebert said she had previously paid rent checks to the father of one of those men, who owned the building through Meskin Enterprises.

The Republican tenant eviction mantra: Shit happens.
I wonder if she supported landlords evicting their tenants prior to this.
Wait! Shit Happens! Isn't that the motto of her restaurant?

If I owned a cannabis dispensary, I wouldn't want armed, drunken yahoos next door

Yep. She could turn on them without a moment's notice and lie, like the man beaten to death.

I can't think of anything more appetizing than associating your restaurant with a turd emoji.
