McDonald's Cashier Delivers Justice

[Panthers128]

For some reason they're charging this man with a felony. Probably due to some retarded loop hole in our legal system. Too bad there aren't more people like this hero in our society. We might have a more civil discourse if we could clone a million of this guy.

UPDATE

A grand jury dismissed all charges Friday against a McDonald’s worker accused of beating two irate customers with a metal rod in a fight caught on videotape.

Quite a few years back gangs were coming up from LA and robbing stores at gunpoint in Santa Barbara. They walked into the wrong jewelry store one time and the owner blew them all away, he was also shot in the gun battle. Awesome, they deserved what they got. My buddy who worked at the Sheriffs dept at the time said they privately gave the store owner a marksmanship badge.

I think you have to stand your ground sometimes in life. We live in a society that for whatever reason focuses on the response instead of what instigated the problem. I firmly believe in cause and effect. It's obvious this guy wouldn't have beat these women with a medal object had they not have berated him or assaulted him or chased after him. There were plenty of opportunities for them to have this end peacefully.

'do something, pussy.'

Oh, he will.

Yes and no. I think he took it a little too far with the weapon.

Felony charge will crush chances of getting a new job in this day and age.

No surprise, cause the system is a joke of a justice system.

If you don't want a tire iron to the dome, don't start none.

I think the employee was right in standing up for himself however the fact that he used what could be considered a weapon like that probably does warrant excessive force. I would drop a felony charge though. The fact that the bitch jumped over the counter will probably make up for it.

EDIT: Ok he hit them repeatedly beyond defending himself. So ugh I don't know tough call.

[Wanderlai]

Well once he got slapped and they jumped the counter, he had the right to defend himself....but....after he had cracked both their heads and it was over he should not have continued to try and bash their skulls in. Ref should have jumped in and stopped it lol.

Sad part is those 2 females will each get a big check from McDonalds when this is all said and done. Then McDonalds will outlaw metal brooms in their stores forcing the staff to sweep with nerf handles and we all know you cant sweep with a flimsy nerf handle so McDonalds store grade will drop below 90...and rat/cockroach problems from all the crumbs.

Maybe he should be charged, but I bet the girls also get an assault charge, albeit a misdemeanor. Once they were down, he should have stopped.

[Hugor Hill]

bitches is wack yo. I would have done the same thing, except I would have stopped once they were on the ground unless they got up swinging at me still.

[KSpan]

Based solely on my limited knowledge of the situation, I have no problem with what happened except for the fact that he got the object and came back looking for the women. Even then, he should have stopped once they quit advancing on him (i.e. were laying on the ground, not getting up).

[jasonluckydog]

This is a real tragedy, I don't understand why he quit hitting them?
