Teen Brawl Erupts at NYC McDonald's, Prompting Security Crackdown

Last updated 1 hour ago

The footage shows organized juveniles clashing inside a New York City McDonald's, part of a pattern of 'teen takeovers' advertised on social media at fast-food spots and malls. Affected locations in Brooklyn, Queens, and beyond now ban unaccompanied teens under 20 and hire private security to restore order.

Online reactions call for tougher enforcement and accountability, while some link the disruptions to policy debates over policing and prisons, leaving residents worried about safety in public spaces.

“Teen takeovers” are race riots for the fun of it, including looting and pillage. Period.

No provoking incident. Certainly no political demands.
Having demands implies there can be some condition to make it stop voluntarily.
Furthermore, there is no controlling authority to negotiate with.

Organized ad hoc on social media.
Checking where the next one will be seems to be a big part of the fun.

1950s social worker solutions won’t cut it.
Not that they ever did.

Can’t respond to looters with live fire. They are children. Right?

Kill the participants...every one. Tell the public that if they imitate this behavior, all involved will die.

Lots of public spaces are suffering because of this. Wanna go to a mall? Anyone under 18 should NOT be allowed into a business without a parent.

> hire private security to restore order <

That *might* work if the private security folks are off-duty NYC police officers.
Otherwise, it’s not a solution at all.

And heaven help a non-cop security guard who tries to restore order. That guard has no police powers, no qualified immunity, and no support from the city’s legal team.

Happened in my hometown - I no longer live there but was well over 300 yutes rioting and vandalizing. This is the same place where a few ‘outspoken’ community leaders demanded that the most beautiful street in town, lined with 100+ year old oak trees and stately homes, be renamed MLK Blvd.

Understand that this is the beginning of such civil unrest and no one will do anything about it.

Impose a teen curfew. Then charge the parent - if there is one - or grandmother of the ‘teen’ for failing to control the little thug. Guilty mom or granny then must do community service such as cleaning up trashed public spaces.
