    It’s good for about 4oz then it’s too much IMO. Also don’t drink it from the can. What are you, crazy?

    Would really prefer if she would just carry this instead.

    But she has yet to get her CCW and the Company has a no gun policy. Frankly can give 2 shits about the Company policy... My policy is my wife gets to do whatever she thinks is best for her personal safety.

    These guys are getting brazen... They were in the store, casing it, the day before they smashed the side door in. While they were casing, they tried to pass two counterfeit 100s. One of them made sure his hunting knife was visible as he wandered the store.

    Technically if you’re carrying a fixed blade knife it has to be visible to be legal.. I mean he looks like a shitbag, but.. might not be visible just for sake of being a scary shitbag.


    Most criminals who do shit like use counterfeit bills are nonviolent criminals. They do bitch stuff.

    They've smashed in her store windows twice and smashed the front of the store across town once. In a month and a half... they aren't just trying to pass counterfeit bills.

    His fixed blade was under his shirt... until he realized Jen was video taping his dumb ass with her phone.

    Eh. I've been to the Yardhouse and I'm pretty sure they're all pretty much the same. Nice selection. It's OK but crazy busy.

    Buffalo Wild Wings can eat a bag of dicks.

    Never step foot in one again over their public stance against my fundemental rights.

    To my point.. they only get froggy when nobody is there and windows aren’t people.

    Criminals are criminals, but that behavior is the dumb, afraid of confrontation type that tries to be intimidating because they’re not wanting to do anything else. They’re going now into a fucking pool store with fake bills. That type is the dumbest and least effective, relies on someone dumber than they are to be working the register.

    Not arguing with you, just pointing out what the most likely situation is.

    Hopefully they fuck off since our legal system won’t fix this problem. Only fear of bullets, or actual bullets.

    They have cameras. But really, what does a camera do? It records the event so you can look at it AFTER it happened.

    PD did a case number over the phone... haven't even looked at the video or pictures... and probably wont.

    And that's with video of them, in the act of, attempting to pass counterfit bills... and video of them inside the store at 4 o'clock in the morning... coming through the door they just smashed in.

    Cameras can be deterrents. Especially installed on exteriors. Signage adds to the effect.

    I'm surprised no one seems to care about the counterfeit bills.

    From what I gather. PD said that's a Federal Crime under Secret Service jurisdiction. So, basically they just punted it down the road.

    I can't believe they don't seem even interested in the photos and video. There's a good chance these guys have a record and one (or more) local cop may even recognize them.

    As far as cameras go... When I was younger, I was a manager for Wal-Mart (God I'm so glad I don't do that any more) but one of the fun parts of the job was working closely with Loss Prevention. I still have a number of friends in LP... now with WalMart, Lowes, Home Depot, Target. Most will tell you cameras don't make a shit bit of difference to crooks. And I can tell you, first hand, their typically right.

    Secret Service actually is very serious about counterfeiting.

    You could always report it to them instead of the local PD. I have reasonable amounts of experience with this type of thing.
