They stole this idea from the flintstones <| sep |> Also the supermarket there being closed in the lead up to Christmas would be a major blow to them . <| sep |> Barack Obama visited my aunt ' s bakery one morning for breakfast . As she tells it , about 30 mins before he arrived , Secret Service came in and told her he would be visiting . They searched the place for anything suspicious and then announced to everyone what would be happening . They said that once he arrived , nobody could enter or leave , so if it was going to make you late for something and you didn ' t care about meeting the President , then leave now . They locked the doors so nobody else could come in and then patted everybody down . One guy had a gun and concealcarry permit . They told him they ' d have to take his gun while the President was there and they ' d give it back at the end . He complied . Then Obama showed up , all smiles , and acted like he just randomly decided to get some doughnuts and coffee .
