Re: Nice store and new range
last time i was in there (before the range was built), the owner was really nasty with a customer that brought a gun in for sale (i patiently waited to purchase a holster while he tried to jew down the guy for over 5 minutes, he got nasty when the guy wouldnt sell it to him for the super lowball offer he made and told him to get out of there ), saw how he treated the guy, put the holster down and walked out, havent been back since. maybe hes changed, but prob not

I think you had better re-evaluate how you describe people with the phrase “Jew” down. Last time I heard someone use that phrase they needed a dentist. That is not an appropriate way to describe the situation. Govern yourself accordingly.

The morning I was there, the owner was just returning from vacation and wasn't active on the sales floor.
There were 4 others working the floor and setting people up for the range and all were nice, pleasant and helpful.
The man who waited on me said the range was starting to get busy as people learned they were open.

fotomaniac - This isn't HuffPo, we don't trample people for using outdated expressions like "jew down" or "Gypsy cab" or "paddy wagon" or "mother". We do, however, frown on punching people because you don't agree with their word choices.
pacomdiver - "Jew down" is an outdated expression that feeds off the myth that some Jews are good negotiators. Actually, maybe that's not a myth, Jews tend toward the upper side of the IQ Bell Curve and are not unknown in business success stories. Still, we try not to look like a chapter from a Klan pamphlet. And we do have strict rules about calling another member a "paper assholed snowflake".
The other mods will be discussing this, so there may be further consequences for each of you. Interim apologies wouldn't hurt your chances.

The media/politicians ruined everything. Growing up I hung out with all ethnicity's, jews, asians, italians, polish, greek, iranian, you name it.
We all had "a joke" about all our backgrounds, nobody got butthurt like they do today. One of my friends I grew up with is named chinko.
Hes asian/polish, hes in his 50s now, and he still goes by the name chinko.
I guess I dont offend easily, that stuff never really bothered me. I dont like racist "hate" talk though, that bothers me. If you are a hater of a certain people,
keep it to yourself, I dont need to know.
Sorry for the hijack... Back on topic..
Edit: What DID get me peeved about this thread, when the poster said he'd get hit for saying that (or something of the sort) that pissed me off.
If you get so offended you have to strike someone over it, you shouldn't legally be allowed to carry a firearm. That's some scary shit right there.

There is a distinct difference in doing that with people that you know personally than with some stranger on the street.
I believe Clint Eastwood illustrated that perfectly here.

Exactly the point*this is a public forum*decorum should always be the rule. And for the record, I never inferred that I was the one who actually struck anyone. YMMV
