We had a very scary experience a couple days ago. On Monday night Nov 10th, 2008 we went to eat at Sam the Clams 1303 Meriden Avenue. Southington, CT 06489. Phone: (860) 621-0522. While we were waiting for our food, one of the employees was talking with other customers about how they felt about our President Elect Barack Obama. Shortly after we got our food delivered to our table, the same employee began shouting out that he wished ""They never stopped burning and hanging black people..."" I should mention he began shouting this and many other comments towards our table after one of the customers pointed us out sitting nearby. Once he (the employee) took notice of us, he began getting even louder and apparently very agitated. He continued making further comments such as, ""I'd love to burn ""color'ds""... I'd burn them all and everyone with them..."" and many other violent comments. No one made him stop. Instead, other employees and customers engaged themselves in the behavior. It appeared as if the employee that was yelling out the violent comments was the restaurant?s bartender. There were 4 or 5 customers sitting at the bar, and I only noticed one other table of customers aside from us in the restaurant.
Pros: Blatently open discriminatory employees and customers
Cons: Blatently open discriminatory employees and customers
