Tennessee police arrested two people accused of shooting up a Burger King after a dispute over a spicy chicken sandwich.

Tavarus McKinney, 22, and Keona Halliburton, 20, reportedly got into a fight June 6 with employees at a Memphis Burger King after Halliburton complained that her sandwich had too much hot sauce on it.

The pair left the restaurant, only to return a few minutes later and start shooting, injuring two people, according to FOX 13 Memphis.

Four witnesses identified McKinney and Halliburton to police, and they were arrested Wednesday.

McKinney’s background check reportedly revealed nine previous cases and 10 warrants, with charges including aggravated assault, kidnapping and domestic assault.

Haliburton is scheduled to appear in court on June 28, facing charges of attempted first-degree murder and employment of a firearm during a felony, WREG reported.

McKinney's court date has not yet been scheduled.

Most homicides are done by people with a prior criminal history.

We could dramatically reduce homicides by keeping chronic criminals in prison.

Remember when Burger King used to let you have it “Your way?”

Now you have to threaten to shoot them!

It was never your way. It was “Here is some random azz food you didn’t order”. We have 2 restaurants in town; a family joint and a Burger King. You can go to the Duck Pond and grab a goose, walk into the BK and ask them to fry it with some Kale and Sturgeon Roe and hear “A #37 please”. It’s crazy

True story:

Back in the 70’s I went thru Burger King drive thru...Ordered a Cheese Whopper with lettuce and mayo ONLY...

Picked it up and checked it...it had everything (even the kitchen sink) on it...

I parked, went inside and asked for the manager...A young pencil-necked geek came over and asked “May I help you?”

I told him what I ordered and showed him what I got...he opened the sandwich and raked everything off with his finger and handed it back....

He wore that Effing sandwich home with him....

Meanwhile in the old west of 1905 a man had been convicted for murder.

The Deputy asked him what he wanted on his tombstone.

“How about ‘1975’?”

Last line in the article:

“There was another Burger King shooting in Tennessee in April after a customer got fed up with the long wait in the drive-thru.”


Are they trying to say this is understandable?

I was at a drive through the other day and the soda was very weak. I asked for a new one before it even occurred to me to shoot the place up.

Of course with, ammo prices now, about 2 shots would have covered the cost of the drink.

No, you're not. If I was black, I would also be cringing at the pandering TV commercials insinuating that nearly the entire country is black, or composed of mixed-race couples. I'd also be extremely embarrassed by the Democrats telling me they think I'm too stupid to get an ID or use a computer.

There probably are millions of smart, law-abiding, good-hearted black people who feel this way, but the liberal Democrat media will never give them a forum to express their displeasure and disgust.

"Halliburton???" <-- Liberal snowflake, circa 2004.

This wasn’t even a lack of impulse control. They left, and came back shooting.

When it comes to fast food wars, I still prefer McDonald’s random shootings and crazy employees/customers fights to Burger Kings. We should organize a survey.
