Another thug put in the ground where he belongs.

quote:

Arlington police are still trying to process a horrific shooting scene that unfolded at a popular restaurant and bar. Police flooded the Zona Caliente Sports Bar at about 6:15 after receiving calls of an active shooter. Lt. Christopher Cook said two people were killed, including the alleged shooter. "We believe the shooter is one of those deceased who was killed by a customer in the location after the suspect shot and killed someone inside the restaurant," Cook said. James Jones, 48, and Cesar Perez, 37, were pronounced dead. Perez was a manager at the restaurant, and Jones has been identified as the first shooter.

quote:

The customer who shot Jones had a concealed weapon on him at the time of the incident and a concealed handgun license. He hasn't been identified, and police say no charges will be filed against him. Cook said it all began when Jones walked into the bar and approached Perez, a manager, who was standing at one end of the bar. The pair began arguing. “There was some type of altercation, things being said, and this man pulled out a gun and shot the employee and killed the employee," Cook said. After Perez was killed, Cook said the customer from the other end of the bar brought out his own handgun, then shot and killed Jones. “He made the decision to engage the shooter, fearing there would be other loss of life,” said Cook. A motive wasn't immediately clear, but police were interviewing dozens of potential witnesses that were inside as either customers or staff. They're also reviewing surveillance video. This comes after the rash of violent incidents across Texas in the past couple of weeks.

To my knowledge, yes, but I believe the place has to be a restaurant.

You wont see this in mainstream news. The sad thing is, this needs to be posted all over mainstream news. people need to see how guns in the hands of the good guys stops the bad guys with a gun. Things like this happen often, where a good citizen with his or her CC stops an active shooter but you never hear about it. I carry my CC firearm where ever I go.

I had a situation 2 years ago at the Amite race track where a AA man tried to get in my truck and threatening me and my wife to bring him where he wanted to go. He removed himself from my truck really fast when he was staring down the barrel of a 9mm weapon.

You can carry your weapon in a restaurant but not a bar in Louisiana. The slippery slope is for example, Applebees bar and grill. Is it a bar or a grill?

That seems like a very controversial issue

Maybe it depends if you're seated in the restaurant part instead of the bar

In Oklahoma, if 51% of the sales are alcohol, you cant carry. So Applebees is good.

If it is a bar and grill such as Applebee's or Chilis. As long as the food makes more money then the bar, you can carry your CW.

The need for a license to conceal is bullshite. The criminals are carrying concealed regardless.

It's the sales numbers that determine if the establishment is a bar or restaurant not where you sit.

Also, if you are concealed carrying your alcohol level can't be above .05

This is what the waitresses wear.

It's almost reminiscent of the Twin Peaks fiasco, and another reason why I no longer go to any breastaurants
