We’re not trying to stereotype anyone, but when we heard that two men in Palm Desert, California pulled guns on each other in a Toys ‘R’ Us Friday after their women companions got into a bloody brawl, we just knew they were Latino. Call us cynical, but who the hell else would be ridiculously macho enough to carry a gun to a toy store? Alejandro Moreno, 39, of Desert Hot Springs, and Juan Meza, 28, of Cathedral City were believed to have known each other according to sheriff’s Investigator Matt Diaz. And the Associated Press says both of the women had children with them. Classy! No matter the reason for the conflict, WTF are people doing carrying guns to a toy store? After the jump, check out video of two unidentified hispanic women in the parking lot of the store, trying to break into a police car and yelling, “You better not hurt my dad! I’m going to kill you!” and being taken away in handcuffs. Oh, and happy holidays, everybody.

    I wouldn’t want to bump into them at the club. They seem like the type to fight.

    If that had been done by a Cheetah Girl, the media would have called is a publicity stunt.
