Nashville Flower Shop Refuses to Serve Republican Event After Christian School Shooting

Paul Bois 13 Apr 2023

A flower shop in Nashville refused to serve a Republican event and has urged other businesses to follow suit, citing the recent shooting at a Christian school.

Alex Vaughn and Quinn Kiesow, owners of FLWR Shop, said that they “immediately declined” to provide decorations to the Republican National Committee (RNC) fundraiser and encouraged “others in the Nashville event industry to say no to taking money or jobs from the Republican Party until they begin to make the changes to gun laws that most Americans are calling for.”

In a statement responding to the request, the owners said that while they respect their conservative customers, they felt that the speakers at the RNC event, which includes former President Donald Trump and former Vice President Mike Pence, go “beyond our comfort level.”

Citing the recent shooting at the Christian Covenant School, the owners said they “cannot ignore the work the RNC has done to create this tragedy and so many others like it.”

Bye-bye.  Plenty of other florists out there in the big wide world.

[LMAO]

I’m sure that they’re gonna get the same treatment as the bakery that refused to bake a cake for a gay wedding, right?

I hope it works out well for them.
