GUNFIRE AT WAFFLE HOUSE AFTER WHITES, HISPANICS ARGUE OVER CITIZENSHIP
A parting gunshot from a vehicle leaving Waffle House in West Asheville, NC shattered a window and caused a minor injury, police said.
The shooting happened around 3:00 a.m. Saturday after a group of whites argued with a group of Hispanics at the 24-hour restaurant on Smokey Park Highway, Asheville police Lt. Wallace Welch said
The two groups were jawing back and forth with each other over citizenship issues and whatnot, Welch said.
As the Hispanic group drove off, someone in the vehicle fired at least once into a large window near the front door, he said.
Whether from a ricocheted bullet or flying glass, Welch said, one mans arm was bleeding when police arrived.
Police were looking for a white Dodge Intrepid that left the restaurant going west.
The CITIZEN-TIMES newspaper first reported the incident, and is currently streaming the 9-11 calls from the Waffle House on its website.
Developing...
Maybe George Bush 41 should visit New Laredo. After the drug cartels have taken potshots at his daddy, then maybe Dubya will get riled up.
Press 2 to be deported...
I see the management has already moved this thread to "chat". Suprised they didn't try to hide it in the Smokey Backroom.
And another less-than-balanced one here (not listed as an editorial, but should be):

People who frequent Waffle Houses tend to resemble the food that's served there (including politicians). Can't ever say I've been shot at while visiting one before.
Are we easterners due for some earthquakes, brush fires, bad government credit ratings, as well?
Better stock up on ammo, corn chips, and salsa and head for the hills!
That's right. "George, last time I did you a favor, the head of the Mexico City cartel only let me keep my middle fingers."
It's a Waffle House lol. What do you expect?!? ROFL!
Everytime I go into a Waffle House it reminds me of the bar scene from Star Wars.
It's a safe bet that if the shooters had been the white guys the headline would've read something like "Racist whites shoot Latin immigrants."
"OK, this is getting out of hand. Can't we discuss these issues in a rational, civil discourse?"
No. Haven't you noticed? We're now a Banana Republic.
It will probably be put into the "Smoky Back Room" once the comment removals start.
FReeper Travis McGee predicted it and was banned. But of course JimRob lives in an area where the Mexicans are gaining control, and the machetes are sharp.
Care to bet how long the FR website will remain up after they rule over?
CWII ping!
You ought to hear what the local American-Cubans have to say. They're not suggesting, they're planning. They do NOT care for the Leftist Mexicans and their southern neighbors.
Glad I started packing recently. You can bet that this will be coming everywhere soon.
Move along. Move along. Nothing to see here. Do you want to be arrested for failure to comply?
Maybe. Maybe not. I don't think we possess the "will to resist" any more. Not as a society. More than likely we'll just go back to watching American Idol...
