This means we serve everyone including groups that are pro-family, pro-gun, pro-health freedom, pro-life, pro-Trump (and anti-Trump). We believe in serving our customers without bias and understand that this can make people a little uncomfortable at times. If your blood pressure rises at the thought of serving any of the above mentioned groups as part of our non-partisan platform, it may not be a great fit. If it’s not, that is totally okay! We understand and just ask that you let us know.”
