I was on my break in the walmart parkin lot when i heard the shot. my fiance and i did not know where it came from but we knew it was close. a co worker informed me later that the gun was fired at the red baron across th street.
REGARDING:
“I’m sure the shooter is a great guy, and I don’t want to judge him because I am not without sin and at the same time haven’t walked a mile in his shoes.”
Excellent!
You’ve gotten the mantra memorized.

“Alcohol, Idiots and guns don’t mix well”
And yet they are often found together.
David considering dangerous mixtures
I agree with most of what Ben Thar wrote.
My curiosity is this: calibre of the round (or type of weapon) and direction of travel with the obvious next question; do we really know if no one was struck?
To be clear, no criticism intended just curious.

I go there once in a while and it really isn’t a bad place.
The daytime crowd are night shift workers and just because they have a different schedule doesn’t make them bad people.
I also know who they’re lookin for from havin a scanner (The city got an APB too)
he already has drug and weapons charges.. go figure..
Now, I wasn’t there, so I don’t know the “whole story,” as they say.
But, I’m thinking 8:50 in the morning is a strange time to be getting into it at the lounge and package store.

Could this have been another love triangle gone bad? Rode by there while this was going on this morning. Also deputies had their guns on a suspect at a waffle house on 29 south, just north of W street about the same time.
Alcohol, Idiots and guns don’t mix well……..just saying….
