The Public Divide
Reaction online has been polarized.
Supporters praised Scheunemann’s “courage” and “patriotism.” Many veterans and their families expressed gratitude, and some customers vowed to visit specifically to support the business. Commenters called it a “refreshing change from corporate neutrality” and applauded the owner for “standing up for tradition.”
Critics, however, argued the sign’s phrasing feels exclusionary. Some took issue with the term “politically incorrect,” interpreting it as a deliberate provocation. Others felt the combination of religious, nationalistic, and veteran-focused messaging could alienate customers who don’t share those specific beliefs or backgrounds.
“It’s not about Christmas or supporting veterans—most people agree with those things,” commented one social media user. “It’s about using ‘politically incorrect’ as a badge. That language sets a tone that feels intentionally divisive.”
