Bloodbath, Part II - I

Bloodbath, Part II - I said there'd be more to come - and I meant it!

Right Of Center - a Minnesota blog that's apparently been around a while, but I've only just found - notes that some armed robbers in St. Paul are smarter than their victims. He noted that KSTP-TV...:

...ran a story about a recent outbreak of robberies in St. Paul. Apparently two men are entering bars, which they have obviously staked out previously because they avoid all security cameras, and take money from the registers, pull tab booths and bar patrons.

I couldn't find the story at KSTP.com, but did find a story at the Pioneer Press. One point that KSTP made, and the Pioneer Press didn’t mention, was that all these robberies have taken place at bars that displayed signs banning guns on their premises.

Of course, people can learn from their mistakes:

In reaction to these robberies, the president of the St. Paul Hospitality Association is considering a recommendation to remove all signs from their establishments.

I wonder how long this fella is going to keep wearing that dopey shirt?
