Do all of these local TV stations hire only females as “news” readers?

You’re right but I still believe one food service worker killed is one too many.

People in any public service role including retail has to face a highly mentally unstable population.

Some of them use guns when they feel dissed. Others use knives. In any case I didn’t’ even have to look to know.

You posted a lot of stats about threats to fast food workers but not one mention about who was d9ing the threatening. Was it them yogi?

I just wanted to speak up for the workers against the violent public.

This is a nice change of pace, since it’s usually the store clerk getting killed by some moron with a gun.

Love it.

The flaw in that study is that they’re trying to blame racism for those behaviors. Personal responsibility was not mentioned, nor was dysfunctional socialization.
