Gun fight at Starbucks

at the Starbucks down the street they had a gun fight between 2 guys, the story I got from one of the girls who was working at the time was they shot at each other, she said "it looked like something out of the old west", people were looking for cover....I thought "damn, I miss all the action" but seiously it was crazy from what I have heard, I am guessing a couple of gang members/street punks

and so there is no confusion it happened outside of the store

I am guessing that we did not get lucky and both of them killed each other....

I was just at Wendys today and there was a fight
I'm in there for two seconds and two high school teenagers start going at it and the one pulled out a knife. I didn't get a good look at it but the other kid got the picture and got in his car. It was inside the resturant too with 3 little kids sitting 20 ft away with their mom.

Two attorneys down and one scumbag on the loose.

Here is the FoxNews report:

Police were hunting Thursday for the getaway car in a double shooting at an Atlanta Starbucks, according to local media reports.

The gunman entered the cafe at approximately 9:15 p.m. Wednesday, fired multiple shots and immediately fled the scene. A lawyer was critically wounded in the attack, and the suspect remained at large Thursday.

The Starbucks on Cascade Road is owned by the theater and restaurant holding company of NBA star "Magic" Johnson and is frequented by local civil rights and other political leaders, according to The Atlanta-Constitution Journal.

"This is shocking," patron Jennifer Washington told the Journal-Constitution. "You don't expect something like this to happen here. But things can happen anywhere. I feel safe here. I'll be back."

The two victims, attorney Clifford Hardwick and Timothy Strayhorn, were taken to Grady Memorial Hospital. Hardwick was listed in critical condition while Strayhorn was listed as stable.

Witnesses told the Journal-Constitution that one of the men was shot four times at point-blank range.

"He was in shock, sweating profusely," customer Karen Sneed told the Journal-Constitution, referring to one of the victims. "He looked scared."

The cafe was closed indefinitely and remained under high surveillance by local police and officials.

It is too bad that this is what our contry has reduced itself to. People just taking their own type of justice to the streets nowa days and shooting each oter. If your not happy with the service you get or a co-worker insults your lack of intelligence just shoot em. What in the hell is wrong with people these days? Gorw up and get over it. What ever your problems are, nothing is worth killing someone over, or spending your life in jail for. If you lose your job, or your wife leaves you, just rebuild yourself and move on to become a better person. Life is not fair and sometimes it can get pretty rough, but life goes on. There are just way too many people out there not being taught the basic lessons in tollerance, forgiveness, live & let live, treat others as you want to be treated, set a good example for our kids.
