Then he would have wrote it off as a business expense, and the tax payers would have ended up paying for it anyway

All states have slight differences in their laws and this is Kali, but business' can refuse service to individuals. When O.J. was in town for the Derby a steak house refused service to him.

It's great that they are making a stand on this and calling him out.

Re: Gov. Schwarzenegger banned from Sacramento cigar shop

Good for them. Sure they lost his business, but its a great way to take a stand. Here in CA, every business has the right to refuse service to anyone!

It's nice when you can combine a principled stand with a bunch of free publicity.

I'm sure he will just find another store but good for the shop owner to to deny him!

Re: Gov. Schwarzenegger banned from Sacramento cigar shop

This is reminiscent of JFK's sending Pierre Salinger out to buy several hundred boxes of Havana cigars the day before he signed the Cuban trade embargo.

"Sorry, no more Cuban cigars for U.S. citizens. (I got mine...) Larry.

Re: Gov. Schwarzenegger banned from Sacramento cigar shop

Wow you guys are hardcore. I think its completely cool that he smokes and supports a tax on cigars. To a degree its irrelevent when you have Arnold money but I also don't consider SCHIP the worst of all possible worlds. After all it won't stop me from buying cigars, I'll just buy fewer of them.

Except that it's killing all of our local cigar shops because cigars online are a 1/3 the price.
