The home office is already looking at taking the license away from that franchise. They are not happy campers.

A gang is a gang is a gang, wearing a suit and being called a wise guy, or "made", or a right wing nutfuck on a bike. When you are an adult and you belong to a gang you are a FUCKING ASSHOLE. You are not a badass, you are a dumbass.
I think anyone who shot a gun in all this should be put on trial for 9 counts of first degree murder. "Self defense" does not wash because they knew showing up to that place there would be divisions and tension and they also know all of these clubs partake in illegal activities.
Outside that, for the rest of society, what can cure this is to pay better wages to both the middle class and working poor. And if those on the right AND I AGREE, don't want a militarized police force, then maybe you should stop worshiping objects and remember that 9 people died needlessly because they think it is ok as adults to use guns like toys as if they were merely using fists on a schoolyard.
This is the climate caused by greedy assholes and a greedy NRA who do not care that their products get humans killed needlessly.

"In short, Meyer has shown that his first disastrous book was not a fluke: he is capable of going into any field in which he has no training or research experience and botching it just as badly as he did molecular biology. As I've written before, if you are a complete amateur and don't understand a subject, don't demonstrate the Dunning-Kruger effect by writing a book about it and proving your ignorance to everyone else!
