    You know, some idiot is going to get himself shot in the middle of a restaurant before all this is over.

      We're close to a boilover. And like LD keeps warning us, I think both sides will use that event to justify themselves and then we're off to the races.

      Please love yourself.

        a little forethought about how to react to those situations.

        I would end up in the hospital with my head bashed in.

        There is no way I could sit there, no way.

        I would find a weapon and start swinging it.

        And get my head bashed in.

        I expect a lot of people around this area could just use their gun for protection.

        Yes. Me too. I'd take 3 or 4 of them with me too..

          Like Copper, I think I would have started swinging. At that point you are an idiot’s decision away from being attacked, and I would refuse to wait until it’s too late to defend myself.

                There'd be zero chance of me joining in. As a "POC" do you think they'd ignore me and move on?

                  Depends on split decision of the mob. Coin toss. Best chance would be if they thought you didn’t understand English.

                    Perfect. Xenon could tell the mob he's from Slovenia.
                    Then see what happens.

                      I haven't heard any reason why this happened.

                      The priest sounded like he might think the attacker is just plain crazy. I didn't hear anything political or racial motivation.

                              I handled a claim once for a Denny's restaurant. A customer in the middle of a meal got up, flagged down a waitress, and asked for a steak knife.

                              Once armed, he stabbed a guy in another booth.

                                  Denny's, man.

                                  After my first shift at a late-night bakery, my co-workers took me out to the only diner still open. There were two cops behind us who were waiting on a table. The host was an old, bald black guy with a goofy multi-colored tie that said GRANDPA in yellow, Cooper Black font. Nice guy.

                                  Teenage miscreants were causing some shit in the corner when we were seated. I took one sip of coffee and watched Grandpa choke-slam the SHIT out of one of them. I'm talking he gripped the kid's throat, kid's feet left the ground, and he was slammed on the floor. Completely got the wind knocked out of him. He couldn't cough for a full minute.

                                  Cops did nothing. Actually yeah they did, they kicked the kids out on their ass after the one on the ground could get up.

                                  This incident pretty much set the stage for my entire time at that job. Multiple times a week there was shit like that.

                                  Oh the coffee was pretty good actually.

                                  Please love yourself.
