I am so sorry for writing this as my first impression from the Gold Bug. I visited today with my pentax camera and did not notice that I cannot take the photo\r
there. However, the owner of the store did not tell me that people cannot take the photo there before asking me to leave the store right away and then, use his middle finger for that. I think he could not do that if the person is a Caucasian American. I felt such a horrible racism. I live the Old Town Pasadena so long even graduate my art school here and love the Mark Ryden's work (which was the store presents his works also.).\r
I understand that he might have a bad day but that behavior is not acceptable no matter what. I think he is pretty rich enough to do a person like me ( asian).
