If she is unemployed and looking for work, I don't think they do job interviews at 2:00 A.M. Furthermore, if she is unemployed what is she doing spending money in the bar. More outstanding social programs that we taxpayers pay for.

Alcohol was believed to be a factor? Ha, ha, ha, ha........of course it was a factor, another drunk sconnie broad gone berserk. Watch out in these smaller towns, what with drugs, internet, satellite tv, these hillbillies know all the bad behaviors and act out. I'm as careful in these smaller towns as I am in the crap areas of Mpls. Just look straight ahead, mind my own business, don't talk to anyone, and get the hell out as fast as I can.

This woman has an extensive record of contacts with law enforcement. She apparently is playing the system and is using her "poor single mother with 5 children situation" to always remain free and available for more public services. It is quite evident that she is not a good mother. She should lose her parental rights and her children should be put up for adoption by someone who really can give her kids what they deserve. Homeless shelters have become a refuge for the people in our society that are irresponsible, reckless, and very street-wise in knowing how to use the system.

I'm loving it.Officer sees the woman put the weapon in her sweat shirt but it is found in the van.
But the spent rounds are found in the sweatshirt.

Some one does not have their stuff wired tight.

Now I'm not an expert on the criminal justice system, but what exactly is a signature bond? And why was she released? Drunk and discharging a weapon in a public place and you release her to go back to her kids? I think it's pretty obvious that something has gone terribly wrong here and that the kids need to be removed from her supervision. Wonder who was watching the kids while she was out playing with guns?

These are the kind of people who are ruining it for those people who really need our help. Take away her kids permanently and never let her get welfare again.

She is probably a conservative who just "happened" to be wearing her gun when she went to the bar.

No conservative would carry a .22, put it in her shirt, or fire it without killing something. If the headlines read "drunk Wi woman fires .357 and kills pigeon for fun" then I might think conservative.

Yes we do.
The law says, "it's illegal to carry a concealed weapon".

I know...not what you meant, but, I couldn't help myself.
