#1 I hope he doesn't get into trouble for shooting first. And Sonic may fire him for carrying on the job. I know that if I had a store in Nashville, this guy would be at the top of the list of people I would like to hire.

#2 Richard,
I can't speak for Sonics in TN, but here in SC they are all privately owned - all the franchisee pays for is the right to use the name, trademarks, etc. With any luck this gentleman will be keeping his job.

#3 Screw the job. At least he made sure he kept his life, along with that of all the other innocents involved. If the owner has any brains, he'll give this guy a raise and Nashville should give him a medal!

#4 A few years ago, Paul Reid murdered 7 people in Nashville at fast food restaurants. He is now on death row in Tennessee. It might be that fast food restaurant managers are wary as the result of these horrendous crimes.

#5 We had the notorious 'Browns Chicken massacre' here in the Chicago area -- as I recall, five people shoved into the meat locker and shot in the head. If I were a restaurant manager I'd seriously think of carrying.
