Couple claims sexual assault by toy at hibachi restaurant
WIS-TV ^ | 7/27/2016

(Some people in Murfreesboro TN need to get out more) A woman's husband said she was sexually assaulted when she was squirted with water from a toy at a hibachi restaurant.

The woman, Isabelle Lassiter, and her husband, James Lassiter, called the police but refused to file charges when they arrived Monday.

"It was a sexual-style assault on my wife," James Lassiter said Tuesday.

The toy, used during the cook's show at Wasabi Japanese Steakhouse, was made to look like a little boy, and it shoots water when its plastic pants are pulled down.

Isabelle Lassiter said she thinks the cooks here showed a little too much of the little guy in the cook's hand.

"It peed on me, basically," she said Tuesday.

Wasabi admitted one of the chefs shot some of the water in the face of one of its customers.

"You hold it aside and water comes out," said Johnny Huang, general manager of Wasabi.

Isabelle and James Lassiter were in town on a job from Texas. They said they were mortified when the chef essentially made the toy urinate water on Isabelle.

"(It happened) in front of our minor children and grandchildren," James Lassiter said.

"It really didn't have a wiener, but you got the point," Isabelle Lassiter said.

Police noted the doll wasn't anatomically correct, but the Lassiters said that didn't matter.

"Just because somebody cut off a piece of plastic, OK, it's not there anymore, doesn't change the fact that you're getting peed on," James Lassiter said.

Huang said he apologizes to the family, and that he's never had any complaints about the toy before. He said chefs will at least ask permission before showing more of the toy boy again.

"The kids like it," Huang said. "They think it's a water gun, kind of like a water gun, you know?"

Man, what a bunch of frigging idiots, without the slightest sense of reality, but a HUGE desire to play victim.

If I recall, Dan Quayle got one of those, and was made fun of over it in Doonesbury for a while. My sister had one of those with the boy in a outhouse. A puerile but harless toy.

I had the misfortune of stopping in Murfreesboro with my family during a move. It was one of the worst cities ever. The Motel 6 looked like a run down “no name” motel complete with smoke detector ripped out of the wall and heavy musty odor, and the third motel we tried wasn’t that much better. I learned my lesson, get through Murfreesboro before stopping.

Allow me to abuse the power of suggestion by floating the idea that either the husband, wife or both could be latent pedophiles.

My dad had an ashtray with a miniature version of that statue peeing onto a swastika.

I’d be ticked off if the chef at an expensive restaurant sprayed my wife with a toy of any description during the meal.

You might expect something like that at a breastaurant/bar. But at a hibachi restaurant? I’d probably get up and leave.

“It really didn’t have a wiener, but you got the point,”

For some reason I find that funny. Tranny joke in there somewhere.

Maybe they needed to paint the end of it bright orange?

Sometimes the chefs at these places can be ‘playful’. They usually have us catching shrimp in our mouths like a bunch of baby birds going for a worm.

I wonder how long it will be before the statue is destroyed by refugees who are offended by it?

But the difference between you and the current dregs of society (the Social Justice Warriors) is that you wouldn’t be looking for a payday from it.

The SJW lottery. Scream “SEXUAL ASSAULT!” and “RAPE!” until you win big bucks.

"Please, lady. Do I gripe to you about MY honeymoon...?" ;)
