  1. Jesus, if we shut down all places where there has been gun violence or any type of violence. We would have to shut down everything!!!!

    1. Excellent idea, since little boys can’t function without their manhood, also known as a Gun.

  2. If this is a recurring problem, what will help? Bouncers? More police presence? Not allowing impaired people in? Limit alcohol consumption? Earlier closing? Changing up the music towards closing time or periodically throughout the night? A little jazz, as little classical, oldies from the ‘40s through ‘70s, a little pop just to get people to pause.

  3. Depends on what your idea of fun is. There are plenty of nightclubs–most, actually–that have never had gun violence. Just not in Annandale.

    1. There are all sorts of gangs and nightclubs in Annandale! Friendly ones, not so friendly ones as well to try and avoid. Diamond Lounge is full of bad characters! Clearly avoid!

  4. That place looks like a prop from Tarantino’s From Dusk Til Dawn. Hard to believe it exists.
