I have known about Pappy's since I was a kid and have shopped there occasionally. I was on my way back home when I thought I would stop in since I hadn't been in for many years and wanted to check out some holsters. While browsing the store clerk and another customer were loudly discussing politics and how they hope Obama doesn't get reelected. I kind of expect this sort of rhetoric from a store like this so I tried to ignore it. But as much as I agree that people have the right to their own opinion I don't feel as a business owner or employee that its OK to use words like ""N--ger"" and ""Illegal Mexican"" in front of other customers. Just because the only two customers in the store at the time are white doesn't give you just cause to start spouting out racist remarks. I would think people who serve in the military would be less hostile to others races since those ""N--gers"" and ""Illegal Mexicans"", who probably aren't illegal in the first place, are some of the same soldiers who are watching your back so you don't come home in a body bag. My own opinions aside, the store had a pretty skimpy selection as the clerk said the owner was going to rent out the building and sale everything online. Maybe he was sore that he was losing his job, but he might want to change his attitude if he plans on trying to find another.
