Man charged after allegedly showing gun to jump ahead of women in West Palm fast-food line

[n2doc]

WEST PALM BEACH — A West Palm Beach man was arrested Tuesday after being accused of wielding a gun at three women so he could cut in front of them in the drive-through line at a fast-food restaurant.

James Lee Cruz, 58, is being held at the Palm Beach County Jail in lieu of $7,500 bond. He is facing three counts of aggravated assault.

City police arrested Cruz after the three women called to report that a man in a silver Buick just couldn't wait in the drive-through line at the McDonald's on Palm Beach Lakes Boulevard near Congress Avenue during the early morning hours of May 13.

The women told police the two cars were side-by-side around 1:35 a.m. when the driver, later identified as Cruz, pulled out a gun and pointed it at them, the arrest report said. They also said the man was yelling something at them, but they could not hear him.

1. Unless he was yelling my blood sugar is dangerously low...

um maybe I shouldn't offer that as a defense. On second thought maybe it's true. Anyway, I sort of hope it is and he wasn't just being really really impatient.

2. Another "law-abiding" gun owner right up to point he intimidates women with the dang thing.

And, his action won't get listed in the gun crimes that the gun culture attempts to use to assert gun owners/carriers are pillars of society.

3. So are you equating all of us gun owners to this asshat?

[1StrongBlackMan]

4. No ...

But all asshat gun owners ARE equated to the guy.

[SGMRTDARMY]

5. Nice insult

Welcome to the Gungeon, enjoy your stay, as brief as it may be.

[1StrongBlackMan]

9. Are you considering yourself an asshat?

If not, where's the insult?

All gun-owners, including myself, are not asshats; but all gun-owners that act as this man did, are!

[SGMRTDARMY]

10. My apologies

I totally misunderstood what you said.
(total embarrassment)

[discntnt_irny_srcsm]

11. Pardon the intrusion but...

...were you aware that you replied to yourself?

[1StrongBlackMan]

22. These things happen ...

But I'm pretty sure you understood, based on the context, to whom I was responding to ... Right?

[discntnt_irny_srcsm]

25. Yes

I just wasn't sure if it would noticed by the intended.

BTW, welcome I haven't seen you here before.

7. If he has a CPL, yes it will be listed, because his permit will be revoked.

Florida tracks and publishes that data every year.

Make up another one, dude.

[Hoyt]

20. Except we've seen recent posts where things don't get captured.

You think Zimmerman can still buy a gun, and still has his permit?

[gejohnston]

21. Zimmerman

not legally, moot since the only gun he likely owned is in an evidence locker.

[AtheistCrusader]

27. Not while he's on bail no.

And no, a conviction under these circumstances would be reported to state and federal databases.

[ileus]

6. Ha Ha....dumbass, the woman should have laughed at him.

[AtheistCrusader]

8. Anyone else think MARK IT ZERO based on the mug shot?

Add glasses and a goatee, if you can't see it.

[discntnt_irny_srcsm]

13. Maybe but...

...it wasn't even a league game.

[rrneck]

18. OVER THE (center) LINE! nt

[discntnt_irny_srcsm]

26. As long as it's not...

...over the foul line.

[Callisto32]

15. Clearly, he as mental disorders...

you know, beyond pacifism.

[bongbong]

12. ALEC scores another triumph!

In addition to providing funding to push thru SYG laws in many states, the right-wing KochSuckers over at ALEC have now embarked on the SYB campaign to shove Stand Your Burger laws down America's throat.

[discntnt_irny_srcsm]

14. non sequiturd response...

...if ever I saw one.

[bongbong]

16. LOL

Simple schoolyard insults as a response?

I never expect more from the gun-religionists!

[SGMRTDARMY]

17. Pot, meet Kettle

Thats all you do.

[bongbong]

29. Show me

So all my posts are insults?

You gun-religionists are hilarious.

[discntnt_irny_srcsm]

33. Ode to the "bong"

So unaware and out of touch,
Without a care nor thinking much,
Catching a wave, riding it high;
Unsuspecting that it was lie.

[Callisto32]

19. Ummmm....

Non sequitur is a logical fallacy...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non_sequitur_%28logic%29

[discntnt_irny_srcsm]

23. Yes but...

...non sequiturd characterizes data as somewhat less meaningful than merely non sequitur.

[discntnt_irny_srcsm]

24. I was trying...

...to post this at exactly 4:04 PM ET with the title "Your time has come".

BTW, an insult would be aimed at you. My reply was aimed at your logically challenged implications. Every thread needs a dunsel.

[bongbong]

28. Keep digging!

I love how people who are scared to leave the house without a gun try to sound logical.

[discntnt_irny_srcsm]

30. Not all us have that SHOVEL you've been using.

How is it way out in Alex Gordon land?

I haven't left the house packing since...EVER.

[bongbong]

31. goody gumdrops!

> I haven't left the house packing since...EVER

Oh goody, that makes you an exceptional gun-religionist. An unusual gun-religionist. Remember, your experience is not shared by all gun-religionists. Thinking one's personal acts are done by everybody is the "reasoning" process favored by repigs.

[discntnt_irny_srcsm]

32. cool

what's the weather like on your planet?

[Meiko]

34. I am glad nobody was hurt

and it's good to see this guy in jail.
