Spanish music at Sportsman Warehouse in Springs

[libertyordeath]

Actually dude, I take offense at your comment and the request to have mine edited. I understand the forum and it's rules. Sportsman Warehouse is in the realm of the shooting sports and this thread is simply a relation to an experience I had. I found it odd, so I posted on it. Not that I should even have to justify the thread to begin with.

Easy, dude. He's messing with you.

You had the right free market response. If you don't like something about a vendor, then let them know by not buying their goods.

I have heard this in alot of places, and it struck me as odd too. I noticed it in the lobby of the Omni hotel in broomfield. Noticed it in GNC too... And it wasnt like it was just one song. they played a few songs in english, then in spanish, and back to english.

Because I saw it as odd can I be called a racist too?!?!

Dude, I prefaced the thread by stating that I was born, raised and educated on the border for over 30 years. How would I "be afraid of what I don't understand?" I AM the one who understands. Does anyone else?

I think i know what you are trying to say. Are you saying that music isn't suitable for typical retailers plays on the air?
For an example, if i goto Italian restaurant, it is kinda odd to hear Spanish music. If i goto Japanese restaurant, it is odd to hear Chinese (Mandarin) music.

If i goto McDonald and hear classic (for example at the Flatiron McDonald), it is little odd. I am so use to hearing fast pace music at a fastfood restaurant. Not in a level it bothers me, but I say "wow, this McDonald is playing classical! hehe"


Well, it is storemanager's and corporate's decision to put that music. Also, it was your decision not to hear that music and leave. Nothing wrong with that.

I could care less what they play in the store. I don't like the store! Nothing in stock and the gun monkeys behind the counter are too high on themselves with their all knowing endless knowledge. YOU WORK FOR CORPORATE AMERICA DUCHE for a buck over minimum wage! They could play Arabic music for all I care. They get nada $ from me.

I'm tired of people who care about what others think is "racial" The poster didn't say.....well I'll refrain from that. He simply stated he thought it odd to play "Spanish" note that he didn't say Mexican music in a store known to draw....say redneck types. Bunch of south of the border polka music anyways. Lots of treble and very little bass! There now get on me for my opinion! Lets be tolerable to all! Sounds like lib talk to me. I'd rather hear....lets embrace the country we now live in because its better than the one I left!

I'm with you Jumpstart. I hate it when I make a phone call and it starts off "if you want english press one". It should say "If you want to live in America LEARN ENGLISH!!!! I think they have the right to play spanish music if they want! I know I have the right to spend my money elsewhere and I would exercise that right.

[Colorado Luckydog]

Can you edit this as it might seem racist to some....

Please edit this statement to keep the poster from sounding like a liberal.

[rofl1]hahahahahahahahahah!

[GunTroll]

All joking aside he definitely is no lib!

In the final analysis my point is, you (we) are being led down a path.

Ustedes van a necesitar a escuchar a Obama. Aprendan espanol porque no estamos cuidando nuestro pais, nuestra frontera ni nuestra cultura. Esta fue mi punto. ?Me intienden todos?

No fair! I'm not bi-lingual unless you count drunken caucasian!
