A Baltimore County McDonald's owner announced on Saturday afternoon that an employee who taped the violent beating of a customer — a video that went viral Friday — had been fired.
"My first and foremost concern is with the victim," franchise owner Mitchell McPherson said in a statement, adding that action might be taken against other restaurant workers as well. "I'm as shocked and disturbed by this assault as anyone would be. The behavior displayed in the video is unfathomable and reprehensible."
The video of a beating the Rosedale restaurant went viral Friday, garnering hundreds of thousands of views on websites and prompting the fast-food giant to issue a statement condemning the incident.

The three-minute clip was apparently first posted on YouTube, then taken down by administrators who said it violated the site's policies. But it popped back up on other sites and was ultimately linked from the popular Drudge Report, which gave it top billing for much of the day.
County police confirmed that the attack occurred April 18 in the 6300 block of Kenwood Ave. Police said the 14-year-old girl has been charged as a juvenile, while charges were pending against an 18-year-old woman.
Equality Maryland said the victim is a transgender woman and called on state Attorney General Douglas F. Gansler to step in and investigate the case as a hate crime. Police and prosecutors said they did not know whether the victim is a transgender woman.
Update from Sun reporter Justin Fenton via Twitter:

You're right, Pops. That was an over-reach on my part. My apologies.
I think I've had the same argument on these threads so many times now, that I had it on cruise control. Sorry 'bout that.
I agree, but it is what it is. These are some twisted folks.
I understand and apology accepted. Thank you. I’ve been following these threads and yes, after a while....
You know something... I'm getting even angrier at the two moronic savages that beat that he/she down, because they've made me miss a whole day of freeping with this stupidity.
They're subhumans, and need to be thrown under the jail and left to rot. Period.
I’m not sure the TSA can be trusted to figure it out
As I already noted, how this MAN mutilated HIMself really doesn't change the fact that a MAN should not be going into a LADIES restroom. Whatever problems he created for himself by choosing to follow this path of depravity are his own, not the unfortunate people he encounters in public restrooms.
No you made it very plan what you support, the only thing you could have done to made it any plainer was, by screaming stomp the freak.
No, in this case in makes you clarievoyant. Since the black hoe says she is a she in her statement to the cops.
Many coffee places, copy/Net cafes in NYC have unisex
single occupancy restroom facilities. Some of these
businesses routinely declare the restrooms “out of order”
often at certain times of night, even when they are
functioning. There’s interesting correlations between
the type of neighborhood and these phenomena. One of the
unintended consequences of the post 1960s lifestyles.
Your summary is all we really need to know.
Yeah, the lies are just positioned as assumptions and the sheep go along with the lie.
Anything with a y-chromosome is male...
People are ignorant.
Isn’t it interesting how DIVERSITY vs. PERVERSITY will play out here?
In Uganda they want to give homosexuals the death penalty.
It is illegal in Jamaica.
In both countries these queers get much more severe treatment...
We can’t impose our values on them, we must honor diversity after all, remember?
People are more upset about a he/she getting a little roughed up than they are about Lara Logan getting severely beaten and gang raped in Egypt...
The world is mad and it appears that we are not immune from it here.
The SRM will cover this with extreme caution. There will never be enough articles to make the ordinary American citizen look at this as a black on (insert other race or description) to make it a hate crime.
Maryland “Freak State” PING!
I can imagine a lot of women “going off”, if they saw what appeared to them to be a male pervert dressed as a woman in the ladies room, especially if they saw his/her penis.
When someone is, correctly or not, identified as a sex offender, of any of the list of “indecent exposure”, “molester”, to “rapist”, all bets are off.
The two female attackers are believed to be 18 and *14* years old.
What would the typical man do if his 14 year old daughter hastily exited the ladies room and said there was a man in there with his penis out? If he then went in there and saw a penis on what looked to be a woman, in most of the US, he would not be thinking “transgender”, but, “I am going to beat the ever-loving poop out of you, Mister!”
And the same with the 18 year old woman, again, in most of the US.
In their mind, the transgender was being perverted to a 14 year old girl. And that’s a-beatin’.
You are absolutely right. This was a case of a perfectly normal person being picked on for no reason. It’s only a coincidence that he had his manhood chopped off and dressed like a woman. I really need to become more enlightened about all the good things that have come from the sex depravity zoo liberals have turned our society into.
I wish FreeRepublic had a “like” button. That’s about what I’ve been trying to say.
That's quite an 'imagination' you have there.
You sound like you're auditioning for the part of the ethically-challenged lawyer the perps are bound to get (probably at public expense).
If the cops who wrote the police report had your kind of 'imagination', I 'imagine' they would have sided with the lowlife scumbag perps and the creepy employee (since fired) that enabled them, by writing that the victim simply slipped and fell in the bathroom.
Stay tuned, the facts are not bearing out your helpless-14-year-old-just-defending-herself scenario.
I suppose if you were there you'd join in on the beating -- or maybe made a video so you could put it on YouTube?
You could call it "Beating The Ever-Living Poop out Of A Tranny Me And My Homies Caught In The Bathroom"
