I get her. This isn’t about a sandwich. It’s about doing a job while being vilified daily in the corrupt media, the subject of hateful demonstrations and in some places physical attack. Legislation is being passed to keep them from defending themselves while exposing them to personal liability. At some point a person is just going to have had enough.

Why should it get pulled??? No reason to.

Also this NOT just about her not getting an egg McMuffin..think it thru. this is about not trusting the servers when they go thru a drive thru since you never know what they would do to a meal because a cop ordered it. Take for example the shake shack incident, among others. It is interesting that no other patrons of that establishment got sick ONLY those 3 cops.
Thats the point!!!!!!!!!!! Its not about not getting an egg McMuffin..

Things were different back then, now it is melatonin based.

My son and I volunteer three days a week at a place that assists adults with disabilities. They do not have clients at this time because of the China Virus.

The person who asked us to volunteer is retiring at the end of next week and the new manager is worried that her 11-year-old son will fall victim to racism. She will not talk to me or my son. I fear because of our skin color. We are different from her color.

My wife and I had been friends with a person whose father marched with MLK and opened his own church in Atlanta to spread the good word of the Lord. My wife and our family were there for them for the passing of the wife of the Pastor and his passing. I even built him a laptop to help him in his dying days. We were there for them.

The husband is a distant relative to Clarence Thomas. They named one of their sons after me.

However, since my wife passed away and their perceptions of racism, we do not communicate anymore. I will occasionally speak with the daughter who we helped out during a difficult time.

Heck, we even bought them Christmas presents for years just so that their kids would enjoy the celebration of the birth of Jesus. They are supposedly ministers in the Baptist church, but never once reached out while my wife was dying of cancer.

All because of our skin color. REALLY!

If I were a LEO, I’d be concerned about what vile things the employees were doing to my food while I was waiting for it...
No, thanks!

Last place a cop needs to eat right now is blackdonalds. I avoid them myself like the plague. The attitude, rude, uncouth employees are enough for me to spens my hard earned money elsewhere. Not to mention how unhealthy it is.

After being up all night without a break, patrolling dark streets with people with bad attitudes lurking who knows where?
My husband used to come home brooding and exhausted because he couldn’t get a bit of code to work properly, and he was damned tired and hungry after being in a safe office all day.
We have no idea what kind of work day this woman had, but I’ll bet it wasn’t pleasant. I’ll offer her compassion until I learn otherwise.

Cops are supposed to be strong. Showing weakness only emboldens the enemy.

ome gal is crying and sobbing because she didn’t get an Egg McMuffin?
No. She’s crying due to the stress of the job. She wanted a McMuffin and it was taking an unreasonable amount of time (for some cook to work up a “load”) to get it to her.

I can’t imagine the crap cops in some areas are putting up with.

And don’t tell me it’s because she’s a woman. The men are having a hard time of it, too.

I don’t know what your comments were, but this woman has PTSD. I have a police officer in the family, and believe me, they are under a pressure you could never believe. I don’t know why every single one of them has not quit.

Good for you. I still copied all of the posts and posted them.

You can try to kill the messenger, but the message will still get out.

I guess you learned your lesson.
