The pub owner, Kim Bruns, 51, was charged for allegedly threatening the couple with a gun, according to the records.
"It's all false accusations," Bruns told the paper. “I have black people who work for me. I have never used a racial slur."
....
Bruns then reportedly left the room and came back with a black revolver identified by police as a .357-caliber Magnum Colt Python.
....
Elwin offered to pay for the drink, but Bruns reportedly wouldn’t let them leave.
"I'll shoot you too if I have to. It's legal," Bruns reportedly said. "Call Jesse Jackson, [profanity]."
Bruns denied pulling the gun or threatening the couple. She refused to hand over surveillance video of the incident to police.
While being arrested for aggravated assault, Bruns ranted at an officer, according to the police record.
"I can't believe you would take those (racist profanity) side over mine," records state.

She thinks all black people have Jess Jackson on speed dial number 1. Al Sharpton gets number 2.
edit to change the brackets that made the racist profanity disappear on DU.
