“…offer payday loans and accept guns…”

Sounds good to the Payday Pundt.   From the Las Vegas Sun

Cash America, parent company of SuperPawn, is seeking a business license from the city to relocate one of its stores to that site in the Cheyenne Fairways Business Center, said Jennifer Lazovich, a local attorney representing the company.

The store would offer payday loans and would accept guns without ammunition but will not sell them on site, Lazovich said.

Diane McCarthy, who said she represented a homeowner whose property backed the shopping center, worried the type of business would hurt the neighborhood.

“With foreclosures and property and everything going down, I don’t know what will happen to property values. People are already losing so much,” she said.

There is an empty building there.  Does she think it’s a good idea to leave it empty rather than turn it into a store that will pay rent, taxes, and do commerce?
