WASHINGTON (KTRK) -- A decorated Marine veteran was attacked in the last place he expected, a McDonald's in Washington D.C.
Chris Marquez says a group of rowdy teenagers started taunting him while he was eating.
"They asked me if I believe that black lives matter," Marquez says. "I felt threatened and thought they were trying to intimidate me, so I figured I'm just going to keep to my food, eat my food, and hopefully they'll leave me alone."
"And because I wasn't respond back to them, they were calling me a racist."
Marquez says he doesn't really remember what happened next. The restaurant manager says the group followed him outside. He was hit in the back of the head and fell to the ground.
The teens stole his wallet and credit cards. They have not been caught.
Marquez says the attack brought back memories of the war. He hopes the teens are caught before they attack anyone else.
Natch them, one on one with a Platoon of Marines and lets see how tough they are...
Natch = Match
what an utterly worthless group of people.
Strange that this article was published on the 23rd of April. The comments are from 2 months ago.
I’d be tempted to eat at that McDonalds again and see if I saw anyone I’d seen before.
I find it odd that a Marine veteran hasn’t heard about what has been going on especially in DC...and decided to turn his back on ferals.
This has to be the incident which took place at least 2 or 3 months ago, right across the street from FBI headquarters. Odd, that they’re reporting on it again, now, as if it just happened....
Space time continuum thingie.
This is and incident. Has anything progressed on it?
That’s when it happened
Sit alone, but get a bunch of big buddies spread around at other tables. Wait.
And it was posted here a NUMBER of times way back then
Perhaps the media thought it best to let it die to help the likes of Bernie and Hillary.
I think this was a set up for the robbery. In similar circumstances, “trying to avoid being seen and leaving” is what the robbers want you to do. So, what to do?
First, don’t be in a hurry to leave. If you have a phone, call for backup. In such a place, police might take their time getting there, so you need to get crafty. Call for paramedics, for example, and complain of chest pains.
If nothing else, call for a cab.
Go into the “anything can be a weapon” mode. Try to find something, anything, that you could use in a scrap.
Do not go into the restroom unless you can lock the door from inside. Ask the store manager for an employment application. etc., etc., etc.
The advantage of going alone and then taking out as many as he can is that he’s already put out there that it’s triggered his PTSD. He shouldn’t be held responsible for the bloodbath of the homies. Blame the VA, the Marines, the gangstas and McDonalds then get a miracle cure.
Scum.
That said, you are a marine and they are punks. Ya should have kicked their butts.
The original story was given a ‘Racism’ tag. Not cool.
Thanks Obama.
