I saw that on the news , how horrible and senseless .
Yes!!!
. . . Twin Peaks national office confirmed Monday that they immediately revoked the franchise agreement with the owner of the Waco location.
"Unfortunately the management team of the franchised restaurant in Waco chose to ignore the warnings and advice from both the police and our company, and did not uphold the high security standards we have in place to ensure everyone is safe at our restaurants," said Twin Peaks spokesman Rick Van Warner in a statement. "We will not tolerate the actions of this relatively new franchisee and are immediately revoking their franchise agreement. Our sympathies continue to be with the families of those who died and are very thankful no employees, guests, police officers or bystanders were hurt or injured…."
I don't know how much of the property belonged to the franchise owner and how much to corporate. All I know is if it does open again it cannot use the name Twin Peaks, their menus, their recipes, their advertising, their decor, their uniforms, or anything with the logo on it. They also lost their liquor license for at least a week. If they lost their franchise license they might have to apply for a new liquor license.It means Waco restaurant will be shut down after franchise agreement revoked?
Probably closer to multiple guns, knives, chains, brass knuckles and anything else easily carried. (Whips? blackjacks? (I know the one my ex-uncle had is now illegal; he couldn't use it as a cop anymore).I read some article saying that the biker gang members were heavily armed. I don't know exactly what that means.
were they armed with "assault rifles", bullet vests, shotguns, etc.?
Good question. I haven't yet seen a complete list. I've heard them mention only hand guns, knives, chains and brass knuckles, and that there were 100 such weapons found. That sounds like a lot, at first, but if there were over 170 people involved, that's not even one weapon per person.I read some article saying that the biker gang members were heavily armed.
