MEMPHIS, Tenn. — After being denied entry into the club, a woman walked away and fired shots into the air.

On May 22 at approximately 12:30 AM, the Memphis Police Department (MPD) responded to a shooting call at Prohibition Lounge, which is in the 4800 block of American Way.

When officers arrived, security told police that a woman, later identified as Aylesha Franklin, was denied entry into the club.

Franklin became aggressive and made threats they were going to shoot up the club, according to an affidavit.

The woman walked away, pulled out a purple handgun, and fired two shots into the air.

The handgun was later found hidden in bushes, police said.

Franklin was arrested and charged with 2 counts of reckless endangerment with a firearm.

That is the one handgun that I didn’t mind losing on that boat trip.

Too light, almost a lavender, clashed with everything.

Who doesn’t throw a few shots into the air once in awhile? Just don’t do it at Walmart is my advice.

Purple doesn’t belong on a handgun, but Prince’s motorcycle wore it well.

That dang boat accident.

You win the Internet!

I was trying too come up with something poetic yet profound.

One well chosen pic humbles me completely.

I’m tired. Tired, tired tired.

Can’t keep a disco open more than a week.

Grand opening. Grand closing.

Who hasn’t fired a few shots in the air in frustration? Can’t get in the club? Pew pew. The waitress requests an ID to serve you alcohol? Pew pew. The clerk tells you that the store closes in five minutes? Pew pew!

Franklin became aggressive and made threats they were going to shoot up the club...

Confusing. Were there more than one of them?

This butchery of language and logic is becoming a common symptom of the increasing influence of effeminacy and faggotry over what used to be the United States of America.

Used the wrong pronouns. Pew pew pew.

“Aylesha” - no need to look.
