@3onyourside Chicago doesn’t allow permitless carry-people are dying in the streets by the hundreds. The criminals who are committing gun related crimes ALREADY do not qualify for permitless carry. Under 18, felony charges and convictions, etc… Criminals don’t care - they carry anyway.
Yes!! @ShelbyCountyDA let’s start holding parents accountable NOW!!! It’s exactly where the problem lies. No parenting and no accountability for their children shooting innocent people. Every day in Memphis.
A Michigan jury convicted a school shooter’s mother of involuntary manslaughter Tuesday in a first-of-its-kind trial to determine whether she had any responsibility in the deaths of four students in 2021. https://t.co/8glSq8PJi2
NEW: Starbucks *fires* heroic barista who subdued and protected a co-worker from robbers after getting pistol-whipped in the head.
I can't emphasis this enough: Starbucks is trash.
20-year old Michael Harrison, who was working through paramedic school, was fired after he fought off two criminals who tried robbing the store.
The incident happened at a downtown Starbucks in St. Louis.
The men rushed into the store with guns and told everyone to get on the floor. Harrison was instructed to open the cash register which he couldn't because he didn't have credentials.
As the men went through Harrison's pockets, he was pistol-whipped in the head.
A co-worker believed the gun was fake so he started fighting off the robbers. Harrison jumped into action to help him.
Harrison was able to subdue Joshua Noe who was later arrested. The police officers thanked Harrison and his co-worker for their bravery.
The other assailant, Marquise Porter-Doyle, was arrested nearby.
Harrison was praised by local media but Starbucks was not thankful for his actions.
They were then placed on paid leave for two weeks. After the two weeks was up, Harrison and his co-worker were fired for "violating company policy."
"In situations like this, our training and protocols guide our partners to comply and de-escalate, not just for their safety but for the safety of all in the store," Starbucks said.
"That job was helping me pay for college," Harrison said. "I just don’t understand it. I thought it was the right thing to do."
This man should have gotten a raise. Instead, he was fired.
Insane.
@GregWarren I’m at Memphis airport. Flight scheduled for 4:15, adjusted to 4:17 “on the monitor”. Looking out the window- no plane. Flight Aware says equipment arriving 3:54. But “IT SAYS 4:17 ON THE MONITOR.” No fog or frogs. Just late and airline in denial LOL.
@GregWarren Hey congrats on “The Salesman” - it’s great!! Also congrats the shower rod people finally heard your message! Check out this one we bought today:
This should be easy for #NFL - when there is a pileup -- the moment the whistle is blown any player who doesn't immediately succumb and retreat to show who legitimately has the ball should be penalized - harshly. Save a lot of crap during every game.
@GregWarren can't wait to see you Friday at @stlfunnybone !!! Since last time we hung out I've been living in a world of frogs on runways, party of one. And in Sacramento, CA last year I trained a new customer how to order at a lunch place.
@joeroga Great with Walsh today. I'm conservative in boy/girl marriage. Two hour mark with Matt you wouldn't let up on him gay marriage. You are dead on. You forgot marriage allows financial and legal ties that are important for medical decisions, end of life, default financials
@GregWarren Got to see the Warren Report today on @bobandtom. Love it! Laughing out loud. The salad bar discussion takes me back to Ruby Tuesday changing to a smaller plate - #messonthefloorgotalktoruby !
