What was the question again?
What, exactly, is the Reefer Madness design at Bakersfield asking us to do here? Say yes or no to the dollar breakfast? Get a cheap breakfast, as long as we're willing to indulge in some light preprandial armed robbery? Eat, shoot, leave?I can't find the breakfast story, but the handgun story is actually -- surprise! -- about a cop who shot someone who was drawing a pellet (or BB; the story says both) gun. Seem like something people ought to be told about, rather than asked about?
For extra credit, have fun diagramming this cutline:
A fake gun that looked like a semiautomatic handgun that was involved in a suspect being shot by Bakersfield Police that took place Sunday evening on 11th Street.

What would I do? Well, first I'd unlock the slide from the cleaning position and return it to battery.
Then I'd use it to shoot the author of that cutline.
N.B. - why did they illustrate the story with a photo of a firearm partially disassembled for cleaning?
So the cops wouldn't let them have the real gun that was involved? And they couldn't find a real gun that looked the one that was involved? So they took a picture of a fake gun that looked like the real gun that was involved?
The BB gun and pellet gun references are probably back to my greatest peeve about reporters: they have no background in much of anything, so they probably were told it shoots .177 caliber pellets or BBs. Same size.
