Per WYFF's reporter, the guy claimed prior military service and talked about "starting another war" of some sort. JHC!!!!!!!!! Where are these nut jobs coming from?! Thank God we weren't having the Upstate SC/WNC CS.com gathering there today!

I wish I were at a bar at that time today. Had to work until 3:30 and got to work 7a-3:30p again tomorrow. Wasn't me.

This happens because:
We get so excited about going to war we forget that anybody actually comes back home...
Kind of like when we get so excited to go to war we forget that we actually need a strategy

Now you're learning. Ask questions first, and then shoot.
When I saw the thread title and author, I thought C-man was talking about himself.

Citdog would never claim Greenville as home. He originates from the Holy City and I am not talking abount Jerusalem
Catman, where is the Zone Sports Bar, never heard of it.

somewhere in S'ville. Maybe off Georgia Rd, I don't know? There's a strip mall with a FOOD LION grocery store out that way and it may be in that same strip mall. There is a good pizza joint there as well.

Mountain made out of molehill. Somebody had some drinks and started mouthing off. And of course in today's society we have to make a big deal out of it. Like somebody who is really a threat is likely to do that to begin with.

"and then suddenly said that he had an M-16 and explosives in his car, and he was going to "kill everyone in the building.""
At which point, the bartender should have pulled a shotgun out from under the bar and took his head off.
Self-defense, and defense of all the other bar patrons.
Alas, there is too much of a risk that the courts wouldn't see it that way. Which sucks.

So now you are defending the bar and the people who frequent bars?

Only if they have a designated driver for the ride home.
And no,
I'm not defending the bar, I'm saying that the bartender should.
