I was attempting to give a description of the men and the small town atmosphere without being overly negative, or using unnecessarily derogatory terminology. I believed that if any terms would have raised hackles, it would have been the reference to the "Hippy Store." Then again, people will find any reason to be offended.
The trip did not bother me, this wasn't my first rodeo. I merely found it odd that where I expected negativity was acceptance, and vise versa.
