Let’s everyone calm down and have a free sample of flavored coffee and a whole grain cracker topped with organic cheese spread.

A mob of cops just standing around in bunches. Like great clusters of grapes.

If the Muslims see this it will give them ideas.

I take it from the massive turnout of police already there (along with special tactics teams) that this has been going on for quite a while. (and about ready to throw a shoe through the tv with the ‘expert’ on CNN...)

Only reason this story caught my eye is because I love shopping at Trader Joe’s frequently.

It’s either that or go inside.

How many kids were murdered while the Cowards of Broward hid behind cars in the parking lot?

CNN is covering?

Nicaraguan civil war, terror attacks on Israel, and they cover this rather pedestrian local story?

No armed customers in a Trader Joe’s. I like wearing my Chevy hat in there and asking for the malt liquor and the slim jims.

Good for a laugh.
