He didn't like the food?

Barricaded?

The write up sounded like he was sitting in a booth ignoring the police.

The article implies he's just sat there drinking his coffee...

Sounds like a bi-polar episode.

Hope he gets through it.

He threw a couple pancakes against the door.

As soon as 75 more cops get on sceen theyll lay waste to him.

This guy's rooty, tooty, fresh AND fruity!

Edit: On behalf of me, myself and I, I would like to sincerely apologize to the entire ATS community for my above post. At the time of the post (upwards of 7 seconds ago), I was going through a lot. I was being selfish and only thinking of myself, and not even taking the time to consider the hurt and pain that I may have caused with my admittedly sophomoric and not even slightly funny or witty comment. I ask for your forgiveness, and may God have mercy on my soul...

I wouldn’t want that thread title as my epitaph. Plus you know your last meal is going to suck.

Not possible.

Must be a banana he's carrying because California is a gun control paradise and things like this don't happen in gun control paradise.

You ever eaten at an IHOP?

I'd draw a gun too.

Slapjacks: Apology accepted but not necessary. My sense of humor allows for some jocularity in this crazy world. On the other hand I hope the police can find a way to peacefully subdue this guy without having to put a bullet in him. The funerary business is doing fine and doesn't need the money. My best,

He must be really hungry.

On a more serious note hope everyone is ok.

The incident was resolved peacefully and no one was hurt

I'm having Denny's flashbacks. My Uncle purchased a franchise in SoCal many years ago. Built it new and then they train for like 4 weeks before they open. As part of it we went in 3 times a day to eat so that the staff could practice for weeks during that period. I have not eaten at one since
