Man Gets in Gunfight with Police over Taco Bell Prices

[Pacifist]

Well, by golly, if the price of a burrito isn't worth fighting and, perhaps, dieing over, what is?

We enjoy Taco Bell; in fact, their current 12 tacos for $10 is a deal. However, we do want some of that brown stuff in our tacos. A taco with just a skid mark in the bottom does raise my ire - not enough to shoot anybody, but my hackles are up and I usually "go snake eyes".

An e-cigar to the first person to name the movie where the lead actor was told to go "snake eyes" by his sister.

Nick Gage "Snake Eyes"?

The 12% is seasoning. There was a big Lawsuit over that "slander," recently.

dude pulls a BB/AirSoft gun on me, just like the PaintBall marker situation, well, it's gonna be a bad day for everyone, I reckon.

and, In “Little Big Man,” Jack’s (Dustin Hoffman in movie image) sister shows him how to go snake eyes and hit his target when he draws and shoots.

ETA:

Police initially reported Jones exchanged fire with the officers. But on Monday, an SAPD spokesman said investigators could not be sure about that because his rifle was also a BB gun and they could find no spent BBs. It was unclear who shot out the windshield of a police patrol car during the shooting

Just curious, how many of you would have fired at that guy if you were the person at the window and carrying concealed?

if it were one of those realistic looking airsoft guns i probably would have. they're made to look like the real thing, and a lot of them don't have that orange painted tip (and the ones that do sometimes get painted over). i'm not going to wait to see if i get hit by a plastic bb or a real bullet. if he's dumb enough to pull a gun and pretend he's gonna shoot the place up, and he didn't consider the possibility of a CHL holder being in the restaurant, then that's not my problem.

No. It was Dustin Hoffman in "Little Big Man". His sister was trainin' him to be a gunfighter.

Close, but no e-cigar.

Close, but no e-cigar.

Does that mean he can still eat at Olive Garden?

Hope so, I was there last nite!

I went on a shooting on Christmas Eve one year where a guy went out after being turned down for like an eighth Coke refill. Came back in and started shooting. Small caliber and all non-life-threatening wounds but still...a soda refill?

Huh?

You must really like your Coca-Cola...

All joking aside, I'm guessing you were part of the response team in a firefighter/EMT capacity?

I've seen guys that were all 'Coked up' and crazy, but didn't realize it was from 7 Big Gulp's of Coca-Cola.

...we don't know what he used that to wash down, do we...

You gotta smoke a LOT of pot to get that upset by the price of a taco. That boy was seriously jonesin'...

From the extensive experience I had with the substance as a kid, and being raised around it, that probably wasn't pot he was smoking.

Pot would moreso go along the lines of

"bro! you mean I gotta pay 2 more shiny coins for that meal bro? dang bro, the man's really stickin' it to me this time!"

Followed by the police running in while he screams "don't tase me bro!!!!!!"

That would only be IF he could get off the couch and into his car without stopping at the fridge and forgetting he was wanting a Taco...LOL.
