From the "...as predicted..." File

  • North Carolina restaurant The Pit was robbed at gunpoint on Sunday. Normally, local crime stories like this wouldn't merit a Townhall post, but this one is different: The Pit has a "no weapons" sign displayed prominently on its door declaring the restaurant a gun-free zone, and bans patrons from carrying concealed weapons.
This is just the latest in a string of robberies at businesses displaying "no guns" signs:
  • In the two weeks since Jack in the Box told customers they weren’t welcome inside the fast-food restaurants with their legally carried firearms, robbers carrying guns for illegal purposes have burst in to rob three of the eateries.

    Just this week, four armed men held up a Houston, TX Jack in the Box, also robbing individual patrons of their personal belongings, according to police.

    The two other incidents? A second in Houston, a third in Tennessee, where people were reportedly shot by gun-wielding criminals.
It's a good thing Chicago doesn't have any Jack-in-the-Box restaurants - it saves McStreetlights having to lie about the robbery rate some more.

Have to laugh at these Liberal store owners who want to pander to the gun snatchers. Serves them right. I will not patronize any business that doesn't like my right to carry a lawful weapon. Fuck them!

Can't wait until it happens in the lib-tard, $25K & up, dinner with Rahm and "Him-Self" utopias of the North Shore, the Gold Coast and Hyde Park!

These people (especially "Moms Against Things" and "The Dads Who Support Them") say that vigorous self defense is both bad and wrong... It puts a low common denominator goblin in fear of bodily harm when heavy fists, hard boots and vigorously wielded firearms are used by upright and clear eyed men to protect themselves, their families and property from the predation of said goblins.

Heh... Skull Man was licking his chops when this "no guns sign" foolishness first started floating around.

Fuck these crazy people... Leave them and theirs to face Skull Man with nothing but screams for mercy on their lips, tears in their eyes and shit in their drawers...

In a just world, these liberal loons would be forced to wear bright day-glo tee shirts stenciled with "Defenseless, Unarmed & Never Had To Fight For A Damned Thing In My Life" instead of them afflicting society with their queer brand of crazy.

Coppers have to be careful when out and about anyway.... We recall an incident in NYC where some mouth breathers did a take-over robbery of a hair salon. Off duty NYPD was outed by a big mouth female customer who knew him... "You're a COP! Do SOMETHING!"

The offenders executed him on the spot...

No word on whether the big mouth female humbly presented herself to his family to apologize...

Most likely there was a lot of "He knew what it was going to be like when he signed up."

This entire shit show regarding concealed carry/self defense is crawling along AS predicted.

Moms Against Things is making great strides these days...these signs everywhere except on THEIR houses, which have "PROTECTED BY ADT" signs all over the lawn -- and a six-way hypersensitive microphone and night-vision camera watching Baby every microsecond.

Antipersonnel land mines are next (in fun colors) -- but "No Guns."

Man steals Crown Royal from train

5:51 p.m. CDT, May 24, 2014

"A Fuller Park man allegedly stole 36 liters of Crown Royal whiskey off a parked train car Friday night and then tried to flee when police confronted him on the South Side.

"Marvin Burks, 48, faces a felony burglary charge after officers responding to a theft in progress found him coming off a train into an alley holding one box of the liquor and surrounded by four others, according to a police report. The boxes each contained 24 bottles of Crown Royal.

"Officers said Burks tried to flee on foot from the scene in the 2200 block of West 81st Place...but was quickly arrested. Burks admitted taking the Canadian whiskey from a parked CSX rail car, police said, and mentioned that he had a drug habit and planned to sell the alcohol. A police helicopter captured footage of the crime...

"Burks, of the 5200 block of South Wells Street in the Fuller Park neighborhood, appeared in bond court Saturday before Judge Maria Kuriakos Ciesil. She ordered Burks released on a signature bond with electronic monitoring..."

Surprisingly, only about 6% of eligible people in Texas actually have a concealed carry permit. The anti-gun people really think that a law abiding person who can bass a background check and who desires to protect themselves and their families and carry concealed is a danger. This law abiding person when in a restaurant or a transit car/bus and suddenly a victim of an armed robbery or assault will shoot the place up. When I retired I worked at a major Chicago bank for a year. I was armed but told that under no circumstances should I interfere in a robbery. They were afraid of stray shots. I can see their point of view, but I just don't agree with it.

From a troll: It is simple, do not patronize any business that infringes on your legal rights. If that is their policy, to infringe upon the legal rights of their customer, patronize a competitor. At 61, I walked into a gas station after filling my car and asked for a pack of toasties to be added to the purchase. The clerk wanted to see my ID. I refused. She said it is store policy and while she does not agree with it, she has to do it. I advised her I have no issue with her but I have an issue with stupid stores who do not seem to think employees they hire should be able to make decisions. It is my policy to take my business elsewhere. Same deal here. Jack in the Box. Who eats that crap anyway?

Sgt AZ aka Z/S has already given 022 a dose of his stupidity on his first day.

It seems that Sgt AZ aka Z/S finished up his 1st watch tour and handed the keys over to the 2nd watch sgt. Sgt AZ aka Z/S then told the 2nd watch sgt that the squad was on empty and needed gas. The 2nd watch sgt told sgt AZ the gas pumps are at 101st and doty. Sgt AZ aka Z/S then stated " I don't know where 101st and doty is". Sgt AZ aka Z/S then turned around and walked out of the station...<<<

The first night?!?

I don't know this guy at all but where ever I worked when a new Sergeant came in they always rode with an experienced Sergeant the first night just to show him or her around on their first night. The same with a new Lieutenant for that matter. Still I suppose he should have asked or followed another car to the fuel depot.

Love the last scene (and first) in Pulp Fiction when the assholes try to rob the restaurant and then get jammed by a customer with a Glock.

Excuse me, but Jules Winfield, (Samuel L. Jackson) thwarted those Bonnie & Clyde wanna-bes with an old school Colt 1911, or varient there of I believe in caliber .45 ACP.

I heard that Soldier Field scans and will not let Off Duty P.O. enter armed so screw them.

But what about Cubs and Sox Parks or the Allstate Arena?

I know that 6 Flags will not permit entry. There if you ride a roller coster and get turned upside down and the gun falls out it could hit some one. Then they would have to shut the ride down and look for a gun if it fell out. But I avoid 6 Flags anyway.

Perhaps SCC could maintain a list of P.O. Friendly and Not Friendly places.

A few threads ago people were asking what to call the new generation of police, now that the "hair gels" have a few years of seniority.

I propose the "selfies."

This name fits perfectly for all of the "look at me" and "everyone deserves a trophy" coppers we have now.

5/25/2014 02:02:00 PM

Take you this long to think that one up? How do you think this new generation of police was created? It is the result of you and your contemporaries voting Democrat for three generations. If stupid mouth-droolers like you, while sucking cheap beer in cheap bars, had talked about politics instead of da bears, da cubs, da white sox - you know - things that were important, Chicago and Illinois wouldn't be the worst of the United States to live and work in. Now go change your diaper and clean your dentures. You smell as bad as you look.

those little purple velvet bags were great for holding spare change in the car in the old days when you had to toss coins at the toll booth before ipass came along--- they also were good for storing fishing reels in the off season--- jack in the box is still in business--- they must have figured out a way to stop killing people with their e-coli burger specials....

Never happen!! Those soirees are heavily guarded with rings of security. Unless you are prepared and well planned, you won't get close enough to be noticed.

"Coppers have to be careful when out and about anyway.... We recall an incident in NYC where some mouth breathers did a take-over robbery of a hair salon. Off duty NYPD was outed by a big mouth female customer who knew him... "You're a COP! Do SOMETHING!"

The offenders executed him on the spot...

No word on whether the big mouth female humbly presented herself to his family to apologize..."

No way. The self-centered b!tch probably had no clue as to the wrongness of what she did and what it caused.

"Bigger signs, and written in 6 languages."

English, Spanish, Ebonics..what are the other 3 ?

The businesses that post the "NO GUNS" signs are pushing for legislation that would protect them from civil damages from robbed, beaten or traumatized customers. NO FN WAY!!

I am waiting for a lawfirm to run ads for victims in a business robbery seeking damages.

Is that city or state law? Very interesting. Guess that's going to make liquor stores very vulnerable. Must pay higher prices at da Jewels to be safer, or go to a liquor store with armed security.

My son spent 2 tours in Iraq during his four years in the Marines before coming in the job and he had every right to be there as a cadet.

He should to be there as a veteran, Not to glorify the CFD or CPD
and besides Veterans Day is for the Vet.
Memorial Day is about sacrifice

Not sure about that. You are generalizing. Some of those cadets, both CPD and CFD were probably veterans as well as some of the CPD brass.

They are all veterans even our Supt McCarthey All in the marines

If you prohibit firearms in your business, you should be required to also post a sign like this:

ATTENTION! ARMED ROBBERS!

The staff and patrons of this establishment have been disarmed for your convenience.

Check the Italian dining establishments along taylor Street.Most of them have posted a no guns sign. I went to Tuscany the other night ( last time for me) and the sign was on the front door.

5/25/2014 05:02:00 PM

You do realize that the sign is supposed to be on all businesses with a liquor license and that the sign does not apply to police officers who are armed off duty....you do realize it doesn't affect a police officer in any way right?

5/25/2014 07:40:00 PM


So because it doesn't pertain to police it's okay? You're the reason people can't get shit together. Learn that there are things bigger than you, little man.

A FRIEND OF MINE, OUT In Jo Davies County decided that he HAD to somehow bring attn. to business owners, how wrong these "no firearms" restrictions are…so he gathered up his "like minded" friends and spent the day going IN…and OUT of these businesses, after either ordering food or amassing a counter full of products and then on the pretense of JUST noticing signs, they all walked out, and told owners they were ALL carrying and didn't want to leave weapons elsewhere, car, truck,etc…several owners told them it would be OK this time, but they all walked out and told owners they would NOT recommend this store. This store would be blackballed on the internet by he and his friends!…At least these old timers are taking some action !

This clown has been a Sgt for 15+ yrs!
My first day as a new Sgt (20 yrs ago), I was given a set of keys & a radio, hunted down a district beat map and hit the street.
As the old timers said when I came on the job, we're all 7 times 3.

Those signs are right along the lines of signs that tout that a homeowner is armed.

That's like an invitation for someone to break in and steal your guns.

The whole idea for being armed is that it's a last resort, and the card should always be played only as an ace in the hole.

Or more appropriately, the ultimate ace up your sleeve.

Liquor stores and banks are not prohibited. Just establishments that serve liquor and make more than 50% of their revenue on liquor. Oh, and the post office.

And thanks to the cops who stand up for citizens rights by avoiding these crapholes that post no guns signs. We owe you one for the support.

Personally, I know it won't have much effect, but I'm writing letters and talking to as many business owners as possible. Just to let them know that they are negatively impacting their business by prohibiting a portion of the population that isn't prohibited by their competitors. I always find it ironic when they fall back to "we're doing it for safety", or "liability". So SO stupid.
