Since when is Twin Peaks a family restaurant? It's all about the men, and this particular franchisee just lost his franchise because the owner is accustomed to this kind of behavior.

Okay well where most of us live there aren't gunfights in restaurants on Sunday afternoon, so WE are surprised. Obviously you live somewhere where this is a normal Sunday, my apologies.

The good news is that these thugs only killed other thugs.

To bad they didn't go out into the desert and completely eliminate themselves.

I'm saying this place was known for that kind of thing, on any given day. But I'm sure you know that. Continue your argument with the closest doorknob...

Yes indeed.

It's a fine example of the folly of gun control. i.e.
  • Criminals use guns to break laws.
  • So let's create more laws to stop the criminals.
Even Hollywood wouldn't accept a script with that kind of nonsense.

Bandidos Motorcycle Club - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I didn't add it.... Just cut and pasted the first paragraph!

Now consider Wikipedia is user generated and being this is a current event it would be ideal to hack the Banditos wiki page as a prank..... I suspect that is what happened before wiki corrected it and locked the page.

How on earth would I know that? It looked like a mall place, and the people they interviewed who had been eating there looked like regular mom and dad and grandma type people. It didnt look any different than a Chickies and Petes, TGI Fridays, etc

I'd hardly call a Hooters knock-off a family restaurant.

Sons of Anarchy. What a joke. Making heroes out of thugs may be good TV but it sure isn't good for the Public when IDIOTS imitate them. I just hope there weren't any innocent bystanders hurt. I would have liked the outcome better if the death toll was ALL of the outlaw bikers.
