Honestly that's all I'm doing now. My house is nice and could use some projects eventually but I'm not in any rush.

Just buy some smoke, chill with dogs and wife, make food.

A 29-year-old man was fatally shot by a McDonald’s security guard Sunday afternoon after causing chaos at two neighboring fast food restaurants.


According to a statement from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department obtained by Yahoo Lifestyle, the suspect crashed his car into a Carl’s Jr. restaurant in Palmdale, Calif. By the time officers arrived on the scene, the man had fled the vehicle and run across the street to a nearby McDonald’s, taking off all his clothes in the process.

Armed with a knife, the unidentified man ran into the McDonald’s, where he stabbed an elderly customer, described by local affiliate KCAL 9 as an 88-year-old man dining with his grandson. Authorities say the man is in stable condition.

The assailant then exited the restaurant, attacking a guard employed by McDonald’s on his way out. The guard responded by shooting him in the upper torso. The suspect, described as a Hispanic male, was taken to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

“I see a man standing right here,” witness Irvin Diaz told KCAL 9. “And all I heard was ‘pop, pop.’ And I came over and saw this man on the ground. He was naked, holding his stomach.”

Homicide detectives have launched an investigation into what might have prompted the attack.

I've heard they do in areas with high crime. Pretty sure the franchisee has to make that decision though.

There is McDonalds in the Bay Area, East Palo Alto CA, shared a parking lot with the police department and had an armed guard posting with a shotgun 24/7.

I don't see it as being strange to have an armed guard in some places, OTOH I live in a large city and have been to dozens of other large cities and never seen a fast food restaurant with an armed guard.

In the past, East Palo Alto experienced profound crime and poverty, especially during the 1980s and early 1990s. In 1992, it had the highest homicide rate in the country with 24,322 people, and 42 murders, equaling a rate of 172.7 homicides per 100,000 residents.[9] In 2017, it had only one murder.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Palo_Alto,_California

I lived in the cities next to it from 1980 to 2016 and during 80s to early 2000s you did not drive through town. The police department at one point folded and the county and state troopers took over.

I give McDonalds some props for staying open at the location. poo poo was rough during the crack wars.

I worked as an armed guard in Oakland at a dollar tree at international and 24th on call for a buddies security company from time to time over 5 years but that wouldn’t surprise anyone who knows the area.

Only got assault at knife point once in my 20 or so shifts doing that.

My girl was attempting for the 70th time to teach me how to write basic phrases in Arabic in my work notebook and the next page I had my proposal written down (after spending days researching it and having someone else confirm the translation) so I had to endure being made fun of for a whole half hour before she turned the page and read it.

Ah well, better times.

I proposed on Christmas Day. I had gotten a bunch of warm winter clothes like Uniqlo fleece pants and some REI hoodies for her, and she had wrapped just kind of casually draped them over her shoulders. I said, “Oh wait, I’ve got one more thing for you,” then went and got the ring.

I had my GoPro running to record it, and it wasn’t until days later that we watched the footage and both realized that it looked like I was asking a schizophrenic homeless woman who wears all her clothes at once to marry me. I didn’t notice because I had tunnel vision on the task at hand; she had just thought I was going to get her another sweater or something.

72 degrees with 86% humidity right now. Feels like a swamp outside.
