Meth is a hell of a drug

Yeah, I think this might be her before meth.

Here’s the text in the “description” of the video....

“I support clean energy! http://repoweramerica.org/wall";

I don’t think the “wall” in the web address refers to the Trump Wall...

Sad. She has other arrests (trespass, shoplifting). Sounds like she's been homeless for a while. She has a brother and sister somewhere.

Since she volunteered for jail, I hope she takes this as an opportunity to change things, deo volente.

Those circumstances put me in mind of Henry Fonda's character in Grapes of Wrath. He walked into that Chinese guy's diner and offered to do some manual labor in exchange for a bowl of chili.

It was a different time I guess.

Restaurants need people who will help, not hinder things in the kitchen-dishwashers especially have to work hard. Forcing her to “work” to pay off her tab would hurt the restaurant for 5 hours, not help it.

Steak dinner followed by free meals in jail.

Under Obama’s set bond according to ability to pay, I foresee bond being reduced from $120 to $0, she should be out in no time with a court appointed and paid for attorney.

The state would probably be better off paying for the $45 dinner and setting her free, under an agreement with the court, that if she does it again, she spends some serious time in prison.

I’d hit it.

Meath head? Impossible. No teeth.

“There were no dishes that needed to be washed? I guess they don’t do that anymore”

These days it might be a Health Department issue. Maybe you need to be trained, certified, proven to have no communicable diseases, etc.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

Welcome to modern America. If you’re hungry, eat. If you can’t pay, so what? The restaurant is rich.

Guilty by directed verdict.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Probably a zillion OSHA issues to deal with as well.

[dfwgator]

Is she, Croat, Serb or Bosnian?

I pick Bosnian.

"We'll let it slide this time. But
don't get into the Hobbitt.  Oh,
and wipe the cake off your face."

Wow...how do you guys find that stuff so quickly?

“Sounds like the M.O. of a filthy gypsy.”

I think you are right.

Scum.

Petit theft? Good Lord....

[ Sounds like the M.O. of a filthy gypsy.

I hate those people. ]

Trash is Trash, be it from Roma or Irish “travelers” or “bohemians”, their culture is a decayed corrupt one ( take as much as you can from anyone else ), type of mentality that is very similar to the envy based system of socialism...

There have been several popular drama shows that tried “romanticize” the “Gypsy” lifestyle. and the message is not, that they should join our society and change some of their backwards ways, but that WE need to ACCEPT and CONFORM to THEIR way of “Living” instead....

Which is more PC cultism drivel and does nothing to deal with the negative aspects of their culture that are in desperate need of reform.
