Davis said the man went outside to get a gun out of his car. The woman told the bar’s owner the man was getting a gun, and the owner locked the man out.

The bar owner told Larson to leave the bar and locked the door behind him, Snow said. He went to his car, grabbed a gun and started shooting.

Countdown to "CCW's with guns in bars are bad, we told you so!!!!!!one!!"

I'm sure the anti's will go nuts again. I think this is the 3rd guns and bars that I can think of since it past. And in all three, the shooter left the bar, got the gun, and then came back. Luckily this bar was smart enough to lock the doors.

Larson did not have a criminal history with the local police, but Snow said he did have a previous conviction and was on probation or parole.
He was not even allowed to have a firearm, most likely.

Very sad that there are people like that out there. Most likely he was planning on drinking, and kept the loaded gun in the car anyway. Just another criminal..

Great door to stop any rounds (at least in the picture) from penetrating.

His name, officer Hartless :shock:
