MINNEAPOLIS - The Hennepin County attorney’s office has declined to press charges against the bouncer who shot and killed a man at Grumpy’s Bar in northeast Minneapolis last month.

Do I really have to say it?

Never come to a gun fight with just a knife.

Now we know why they called it “Grumpy’s” and not “Bashful’s”, for instance.
