Look at this horseshite: the City is suing the owner of the gas-station for having an ‘unsafe’ workplace. This is what anarcho-tyranny looks like.

West Birmingham gas station to remain open as judge declines to deem public nuisance as requested in lawsuit…

The city of Birmingham is trying to sue the business and asking a judge to deem the place a public nuisance. Friday the judge told both sides to work it out together and come back next week.

The attorney of the shell gas station owner where the shooting happened in west Birmingham says his client is doing what he can to make sure his business is safe for everyone but says he can only do so much. Police say over 150 rounds were fired.

The attorney for the shell gas station didn’t mince words Friday. He said his client is taking safety very seriously, but they need more help from local law enforcement to curb the issues.

“3rd avenue shell and Mr. Nasher have worked diligently to try to make this a safe place for their patrons and they’re going to continue to try to do so,” says attorney Brett Bloomstone. “We’ve done all we can to ask for help. We’re not a police force, we’re a small business.”

“Now that they’ve punched us in the nose and we’ve punched them back, maybe we can hug it out,” the attorney says. “The city’s lawsuit was premature. If the city had known that we were working with local law enforcement as we were and the efforts that we made. I think it came out today that they were not aware of all the efforts that Mr. Nasher had tried to execute to make sure this is a safe place.”

According to the Bloomstone, the business has already been in the process of trying to make safety improvements, including installing cameras from the Jefferson county sheriff’s office and installing barrier polls to help combat crowding.

City officials declined to comment after Friday’s hearing. The Judge is asking both sides to come together and discuss a safety plan and they are expected back in court next Wednesday.
