Or just station an officer with a "Drug Dog" on the PUBLIC sidewalk in front of his shop
That dog would always be stoned.

Free lovin' hippies. I wonder if he'll feel the same when his store is targeted by the same people he loves man. Why can't we all just smoke some pot and get along man. Then we wonder why our country is going down the crapper.

I bet you 5 bucks that I could go in that joint and mess the place up, the cops would not even respond. They could be standing outside going, "Don't throw those muffins!!! Put the coffee pot down! Stop kicking over those chairs!!!!" "Sorry, buddy, you told me I could not come in..."
The words...
"Say hello to my lil fren" come to mind then start what you described above while weilding a large bong.

I have no problem with him exercising his rights as a business owner even if his stance is lame. If the police officer is unintentionally driving away customers by frequenting the place, the owner should do what he feels is necessary to resolve it IMO.

That would be scary, especially if someone just burned down his wood pile.

He should be sued by the officer for discrimination. Put him out of business.
