Somebody else can learn to make cheese fries.

This is a f*ck*ng disgrace. This shouldn't even be legal.

Bin cheese fries suck go to 2 bros

Boomer with the terrible take go figure. Can?t wait for y?all to die off, for a litany of reasons. I?m glad this idiotic situation didn?t escalate into something horrific.

You can't wait for a whole generation to die off bc you dislike their views, and you accuse others of having a "terrible take". You sound like a petulant child.

[Dawgowar]

So we all agree then? Our bad Big ten offense is the reason there was a tornado. The bar in question is a hub for marxist theory and eye witnesses can only be trusted if they complete all the proper paperwork? Oh, and you can't trust anything filmed. Go with those old 70's era news sketches.

The bin was encouraging that behavior by kicking people out to seek shelter else where, another terrible take.

No. The Bin was doing what they should do. The Bin is not a 17 tornado shelter. If they let the 4 people into their cellar that would fit, what about the other 100s of folks. They told everyone to go home because that is what they should do.

You guys act like their was a tornado coming down the road in broad daylight and they locked the door as students ran up to the door.

Considering the tornado alarms went off 20 minutes before the storm was anywhere near downtown, you literally could have gone anywhere in starkville in that amount of time.

The simple fact is this. Businesses that do not have a safe area should not encourage 100s of drunk people to shelter in a place not safe for a tornado event unless it is absolutely critical. I live in starkville, the sirens started going off 20 minutes before the storm was close to campus or downtown. Not critical.

Keep the politics out of this or you will get a few days off. No place for that. You can voice your dumb opinion that a business can legally be open without being safe. But it's well known they have a basement.
The mayor has asked this be reported and investigated. the local media will be following up on this. This is not a twitter spat by "snowflakes" . This was almost a very dangerous situation..

Cowbells didnt kick anyone out and put all of the patrons in their bathrooms (safest place in the building) and opened back up after the tornado passed. The tornado was also a few hundred feet away from cowbells and not across town like the Bin.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Yeah, the Bin612 basement could hold maybe 4 people. First off, I am sure this was started by the police. It is their job to clear public congested areas when their is a direct threat, i.e. a tornado warning being issued. Having hundreds of people in an unsafe area is a great way for hundreds of people to die.

Also, they were told as soon as the tornado warning was issued to leave and find shelter. The Bin is not a safe place to be in a storm. Letting people stay there, when they were told 30 minutes before the action to leave is dangerous in its own right.

Now if everyone would take a moment and realize a place that has 100+ people there when its not a safe place for a tornado is a big deal. That is why the police always take it upon themselves to clear it out.

This is not a Bin issue. This is not a Starkville Police issue. This is an issue with adults not heeding a warning and the cops having to take action. Boycotts for Bin in this scenario are stupid as shit. JMHO.

The Police were there and tried to clear the area. I went thru the District a few minutes after the tornado passed and some of the other bars across the street reopened but the Bin and Gringos all shut down

[sleepy dawg]

Politics and religion have nothing to do with this. No decent person forces anyone to leave their place in which they were welcome before in the middle of a tornado warning. If I feel safer there rather than running around outside or driving home drunk, you should let me stay there unless you're piece of sh*t.
