Afghan Massacre Upsets CdA Bar Fly

A discussion about the shooting of Afghan citizens by a U.S. soldier led to some spilled drinks at the Lakers bar @ 407 N2nd St/CdA this spring. The latest Coeur d’Alene Downtown Bar report has the story involving a cranky old fart and a lady friend: “Officers cited a 70 year old male for battery after an incident at the Lakers Inn in which the offender threw a shot of cinnamon whiskey in the face of the victim, a 53 year old female. Apparently the two had been chatting about this and that; however, the male had been continuously rude to the victim. The situation escalated when discussing whether Afghani civilians deserved being shot by US soldiers—at which point, the female stated it was the stupidest thing she had ever heard. The male, irritated by her comment, expressed his displeasure by tossing his drink in her face and then grabbing the female’s drink and tossing it into her face as well. The female did not require medical attention, and the male was cited for battery. Latest Coeur d’Alene Downtown Bar report here.

Question: Have you ever had a drink thrown in your face?
