I think we are all on the same page. No prejudice in us. I want all the scumbag criminals executed, white, black, brown, yellow or other.

Unfortunately, the guy was totally unaware of anything going on around him except french fries. If he had been carrying, he probably would have been reading about his firearm being used in the next crime.

Sad to say, growing up in a northern urban environment taught me to keep my head on a swivel.

Well, that's what you need to do when you're in a vicious cockfight.

Same here, plus the last few times I've been there they always manage to screw up my order. Here in Portage, the place I go for burgers is called "The Lure".

I try to avoid fast food burgers from the chains. But damn if I don't love McDonalds egg Mcmuffins and breakfast buritos.

In all fairness to him, this isn't a place that we have had to worry about getting robbed.

Lesson learned. We have to lock ourselves in our house and cars. We can't let our kids out of our sight. Now we need to be on guard at McDonald's. Sad times. These crimals need to be removed from society and punished so harshly, that others thinking about it have 2nd thoughts.

I had to switch to IE in order to load the video.

I saw this earlier on the news and it's not any less disgusting the on the second viewing. It's telling that this thug chose an elderly man to attack, and I'm willing to wager that he wouldn't have challenged someone more alert/imposing. He had better not miscalculate because it's been said that a number of us here in these parts are quite well prepared to counter such an attack.

It's not a question of worrying about getting robbed, it's about being aware of your surroundings. He saw the punk come up right next to him at a counter that was wide open. If most people were thinking, they would have created a little more space between them and maintained a higher level of awareness. He may have gotten hit, but he wouldn't have been cold cocked like that.

Just because he had $2 in his wallet doesn't mean he didn't have more money on him

You are exactly right. I'm in the publishing business.

There is no excuse for not identifying the alleged perpetator as a black male.

It's evident on the film.

I'm rooted in the truth and the First Ammendment to the Consitution of the United States of America.

Having said that, I assume, as do you, that the citizenry is to BOLO for a male between thirty and forty years of age.

What an amazing time in which we live.

It certainly makes no sense to have people be on the lookout for someone you can't even describe to them. In fact, it's rather stupid/moronic. How would this work with an Amber alert? Be on the lookout for a late model car with two headlights. Huh?
