UPDATE: Oklahoma City police say original reports indicated there were two suspects, however, it was later determined to be only one suspect.

One employee was hit in the arm, a second was hit with shrapnel in the neck/shoulder and a third employee was hit with shrapnel in the side. Two of the employees are 16 years old, according to police. They were all taken to the hospital and are expected to be OK.

Oklahoma City police say the woman became agitated when told the restaurant’s dining rooms were closed due to COVID-19.

2. When you don't get your way

Pull out your gun and shoot up the place.

*sigh*

[Dustlawyer]

8. Well, those 16 year olds should have been packing!

Sarcasm

[jaxexpat]

30. Let that be a lesson to them.

Never come to a gunfight (I mean work) with sporks.

[Tanuki]

3. Rapist45 told his supporters, many of whom he knows to be armed

and irrational, to "liberate" America from sensible social distancing policies. He incited this attempted homicide.

[Yonnie3]

5. He is a terrorist

Edit to add: This is a direct result of his "liberate" America rhetoric.

stochastic terrorism
[ stuh-kas-tik ter-uh-riz-uhm ]
noun
the public demonization of a person or group resulting in the incitement of a violent act, which is statistically probable but whose specifics cannot be predicted: The lone-wolf attack was apparently influenced by the rhetoric of stochastic terrorism.

35. It's gonna get

a whole lot worse...........

Some definitions:

insurrection- an act of revolting against civil authority or an established government.

Sedition- incitement of resistance to or insurrection against lawful authority.....

Cabal- the contrived schemes of a group of persons secretly united in a plot.....

4. I am with you...

I just can’t...

[Moostache]

6. That woman should FOREVER be barred from TOUCHING another firearm, period.

She also should be doing a very, very long stretch in prison.
That kind of toddler-esque lack of control is one of the reasons we need to have psychological screening for firearm licenses AND to enforce strict anti-gun possession requirements and penalties on those who violate them.

[Aristus]

10. It's Oklahoma. She's probably going to get a medal and a parade.

n/t

[cwydro]

41. Doubt it.

[Aristus]

46. Oops! You're right.

Just saw she's African-American. You only get a medal and a parade for gun crimes if you're white.

[subana]

14. like I said, they love their guns in OKC!

what kind of moron would think it's an acceptable response to start firing a gun over something so trivial? Plus it's not like she was there with her family, she was alone! Can't she simply eat in her car or maybe go to a nearby park?

Even if they don't put her in jail, at the very least she should be required to get some kind of anger management therapy!!

[gratuitous]

7. Ramp up the fear and ignorance, toss in easily-available firearms, mix well

What could go wrong?

[Thunderbeast]

9. That whole second amendment thing

isn't workin' out so well.

What will it look like if the food supply is further stressed, and the cable company shuts off Fox News and the latest reality show about toothless militias?

11. Police identify woman accused of opening fire at McDonald's employees

Police identify woman accused of opening fire at McDonald’s employees over COVID-19 dining room policy

Police say it started around 6:30 p.m. Wednesday evening when a women entered the McDonald’s near S.W. 89th and Penn expecting to be able to sit down and eat. Because of COVID-19, employees told the woman that McDonald’s dining rooms are still closed.

The suspect refused to leave and a physical altercation ensued between the suspect and an employee. The suspect exited the store briefly, but returned with a handgun. Police say she fired approximately three rounds in the restaurant.

Four employees were injured, and three went to the hospital. One employee was hit in the arm, a second was hit with shrapnel in the neck/shoulder and a third employee was hit with shrapnel in the side. Two of the employees are 16 years old, according to police.

Officials tell KFOR original reports indicated there were two suspects, however, it was later determined there was only one suspect – 32-year-old Gloricia Woody.

12. there are a lot of rednecks in OKC!!

I live in Tulsa & have lived here most of my life but I also lived in OKC for awhile & I hated it! yes, there are some good people there but it is mostly redneck conservatives! OKC is like a big, spread out small town. They all love their guns too.

Tulsa is a beautiful city & even though we have conservatives here too, It's different from OKC. Tulsa also has more liberal voters than other places in the state. In 2008, Tulsa cast more votes for Obama while much of the rest of the state voted for McCain.

[bobbieinok]

16. B in Stillwater in 40, moved to,Tulsa 46. Will Rogers 57 grad. Back to Tulsa in 89

[subana]

20. cool! Another Tulsan!

I was born in Tulsa & grew up here. Except for living in OKC for a couple of years & lived in Dallas for a couple of years, I've spent my life here. I graduated from Rogers high school in '68. It's a beautiful city!

[bobbieinok]

23. My dad's parents and grand-parents moved to Tulsa from NE in 06. Dad born here in 08

Dad taught accounting for yrs at TU--from 46 to mid 70s

[subana]

26. he sounds like a smart guy!

teaching at TU sounds like a good job!

[bobbieinok]

27. It was. We lived close enough to campus he could walk to classes

We lived near 11th and Harvard

Walked to Wilson JrHi and to Rogers

[subana]

47. I know that area well

back in the mid 60s, my aunt & uncle lived in a house that was on the corner of 11th & Evanston.

I lived about 2 miles from Rogers high school, near Pine between Yale & Sheridan.

[benld74]

32. My wife was in Nathan Hale, around same time

[HarlanPepper]

24. That's actually demonstrably false relative to Tulsa

There is a Dem congresswoman in okc elected by Democrats. The rep for the Tulsa and metro area is a RWNJ. If Tulsa is so woke where’s their Dem rep?

Also, Clinton and medical marijuana did better in OK County than they did in Tulsa. I get it. I grew up in Tulsa and love it too. But confirmation and location bias are real.

[subana]

36. are you talking about state reps or nat'l ones?

there are a few Tulsa dem reps who serve on the state level. I wasn't saying that we always vote more democratic, I was simply giving one example. We are still in Oklahoma after all & in this state republicans often win.

As you said, I probably am biased since I come from Tulsa & I have lived here for much of my life.

[sarisataka]

33. Redneck conservative who loves guns

[cwydro]

42. Apparently loves her some mcDonalds too.

Someone needs a happy meal.

[Tipperary]

45. She is black.

So I am thinking she will not fit in to the narrative posters here have so carefully crafted.

[SoonerPride]

13. My state never ceases to embarrass the fuck out of me.

Jesus fucking christ.

[subana]

15. I agree completely!!

if our politicians don't embarrass us, it's some redneck in the middle of the state!

[SoonerPride]

21. Oh klahoma

Sigh

[subana]

25. yes, that's Oklahoma for you!

if no one says anything embarrassing today, they probably will tomorrow!!

[SCantiGOP]

18. I have two words that should make you feel better

>>>South Carolina.
We have little Lindsey and the guy who yelled “you lie!” at Obama during the SOTU.

[subana]

22. haha!!

good point! We all have crazy republicans that embarrass us. I'm just glad Inhofe doesn't say as much stupid stuff nowadays!! He used to routinely say something stupid that constantly embarrassed me!!

[SCantiGOP]

53. I have to admit

that using a snowball to prove there is no climate change is in the all time Stupid GOP Statements Hall of Fame.

[raccoon]

54. Rep joe Wilson was the rude yeller. Nt

[SCantiGOP]

55. Please don't remind me

He is my Congressman.
I will admit that he sends me "beautiful letters" in response whenever I write telling him that he is a moronic piece of shit.

[keithbvadu2]

17. She would be 'very good people' acc to Trump.

She would be 'very good people' acc to Trump.

[AllyCat]

49. Probably not. She's black and 45 isn't really keen on them.

[keithbvadu2]

52. He can again use his phrase 'my African-American'.

Trump gives public display when it benefits himself.

He can again use his phrase 'my African-American'.

[captain jack]

19. American supremacy. I refuse to be inconvenienced. n/t

[liberalmuse]

28. There should be an immediate maximum sentence or fine for COVID-19 killers/harassers/protestors

This is a fucking pandemic and this behavior should not in any way be tolerated. Throw the book at these people. I'm not normally one for zero-tolerance laws, but in this case, I'll make an exception.

[cp]

37. Yes

They are terrorists.

[Hestia]

29. Now we know why they want to get out - they can't shoot people in their homes

No sarcasm needed - I am completely serious

[sarisataka]

31. They...

Who is 'they'?

[cwydro]

44. Good question.

[mjvpi]

34. More guns are the answer

I hope the Oklahoma legislators mandate all 16 year old McDonalds have concealed carry permits and are required to have guns at work.

[dreamland]

38. Guns and more guns please.

They need to keep defending their rights because they're good people. Dripping Sarcasm.

[scarletwoman]

39. Here's her mugshot - might not be quite the redneck type you were expecting:

[Yonnie3]

43. Here is a link to a news story with the photo

https://www.newson6.com/story/5eb41f6aa4c09b0812a0a376/police-identify-woman-accused-in-sw-okc-mcdonalds-shooting

Yes, this was not what I expected.

[sarisataka]

48. Many posters did not learn

About making assumptions based on early reports from the murder in Flint.

Once again crow is on the menu across several threads (not that many will retracttheir assumptions, some will even double down)

[scarletwoman]

51. Apparently not. It's way too easy to make assumptions based on incomplete information.

A very bad habit - but sadly, all too common.

[calimary]

40. No words...

[jalan48]

50. She just had to have her Big Mac, or else.
