My friend went to a bar in Atlanta this weekend

[Must_B_Free]

said some guy was too macho to dance so his girlfriend goes and dances in a circle with her friends. So the guy starts a brawl that is broken up. Then he starts fighting with people that were pulling him off the first guy he was fighting with (by mistake I might add). So then he goes out to his car and gets his gun and comes back in. Someone by the door yells "Gun" and the band hides. So he goes up to whoever he had a gripe with by this point and says "Lets hear you say that to my face now". So noone got killed and he was ejected. On his way out he was heard bragging "I sure showed them". Turns out he was the DA's son-in-law so the cops were told to "lay off him" and no charges were filed.

1. Oh gosh

So a man goes in to the bar and starts up a mess and threatens people and gets off merley because of who he is? Why does this sound so familiar? Oh yeah, the jackass in the Oval office.

4. Bingo! n/t/

2. Wimp

Doesn't have the balls to use words... or his bare hands.

13. Send his ass to Iraq!

That's where all folks like him need to be.

3. I'm gonna guess this guy is a freeper... he just sounds freeperish.

5. Big tuffy guy, ay.....

had to get his widdy biddy peestol wiff dem big bad buwitts in it cuz he is a 100% Pedigreed Pathetic Loser hiding behind his wifies tuff-daddy coattails.

Potentially a very dangerous person but do people like this guy really fool themselves into believing that no body is laughing at them because it's SO obvious what scared little ego-babies they are? Hell, I'm sure even TS could pick up a personality deficit so blatantly lacking :spank:

Like oh yeah sure :eyes: he'd be the first one to be oh so brave himself while staring down the barrel of a gun.

Glad your friend is ok and every one else for that matter. I've stared down the barrel before and I was fucking scared shitless, motionless, speechless, and any other 'less' word you can think of:scared: and I'm not afraid to admit it either. I am if nothing else a proud wuss:-) My hearts pounding now just thinking about it. :shudder:

6. Don't know what the trouble maker's party affliation is, but....

Atlanta DA Paul L. Howard is a democrat.

7. Did I miss something?

Nothing in the OP's original statement stated that the DA in question was the Fulton county DA. Although, an interesting tid-bit, why was it germane to this topic?

[underseasurveyor]

9. Probably not

Matter of fact if I was a bettin' woman, I'd bet you didn't miss a thing...heh ;-)

12. In Atlanta

Sorry, the story doesn't hold water.

19. It sounds like an urban legend.

Or the valley girls in Ferris Bueller or something.

17. Why it was germane:

Because it was in reference to the statement that "the jerk was probably a freeper." If his dad is a prominent Democrat, this is somewhat less likely.
Further, while the behavior of the jerk at the bar is reprehensible and probably criminal, the same can be said of the papa DA that let him off. If dad is indeed a Dem I don't think we should be pointing fingers at the son and saying "(probably) typical freeper".
There would seem to be a huge amount of unacceptable in this instance, but I think it is personal jerkiness and not political jerkiness.

Odd... I just noticed this. In my personal observation, conservatives often have children that grow up to be liberal, but liberals seldom have children that grow up to be conservative. Is this true in your experience also?

16. Dude!

C'mon now. Three lefts make a right. That is so old and decripit. Troll thee elsewhere!

8. There are two justice systems

The first is for those with wealth, power, or all the right connections. The justice system seems to work for them.

The second is for the rest of us. For us, there is not so much justice.

10. Advice from the bandstand:

Males, if your girlfriend wants you to dance with her, do it. There are plenty of females who will be glad to dance with her, AMONG OTHER THINGS. Women don't really need us at all, you know...

:evilgrin:

11. I ain't buing it. n/t

[bobthedrummer]

14. This wouldn't have happened if the band hadn't hid.

Cowards.
You keep on playing, no matter what happens-oh, the guy's got a gun--oh, oh there's a fight, fuck him and the horse he rode in on!

:thumbsdown:

15. How is it the DA's son-in-law is in a bar

with his "girlfriend" and not his wife?

[fat free goodness]

18. Good catch!
