Go watch the video, the shooter is clearly drunk. This is no different than a bar over serving and a person getting in a vehicle and killing someone. The shooter could have walked away from the fight or maybe just threw a punch. Just like a dui driver could have called a cab. Alcohol effects your judgment and it is a business, management, and bartenders duty not to over serve patrons.

Nope. The bar is not responsible for the murder.

You’ve clearly never worked in a bar run by responsible people. What OP is saying is very true and is often a concern for bartenders. I was one for 20 years, all over the country, and looking out for the well-being of the dumb dumbs on the other side of the bar is part of the gig. You saw that video where the employees pushed everyone outside? That’s a no no. You have to separate the shitbags. If that dude was solo, he goes for a short walk with a bouncer while the bouncer pretends to give a shit about what he’s upset about. Someone else does the same but stays inside with the other crew. This is the basics. You don’t want a brawl out front of your bar, and you definitely don’t want a shooting. Even if you’re not legally liable, you don’t want that reputation unless the establishment is also run by shitbags that behave this way 🤷‍♂️

Murder and DUI are quite different. I have worked in a bar run by responsible people. Legally is the issue at hand so you do understand it's not on them.

The shooter could have been drunk or been doing drugs or a combination of both.

Might as well blame the gun manufacturer and Santa Clause at this point.
