Seems odd that that would be in the warrant for the arrest of Farrelly.
Hmmm... Unless there is a tape, it is a "his-word" "her-word" case. I don't see how this is going to be able to fly in a court of law.
Jamelle Byrd was involved in another incident??? Why don't I believe her when she states racial insults were said.... this stuff happens all the time in CT.
What state is this in? East Windsor? Ontario, Canada?
Where is Enfield?
This is America - we can say whatever we want. Even offensive epithets in poor taste. Not a criminal offense.
"I can't WAIT for 'hate speech' to be challenged on 1st amendment grounds."
I can. The PC crowd salivates. It'll just be one more step towards dismantling that evil constitution thing.
Good grief. What ever happened to just settling an affair of honor on the dueling grounds instead of running to the law?

"GIVE ME A TACO GRANDE AND A GODDAM COKE!!"
"Que?"

I am nothing but nice to the people who handle my food.
LOL
Smart move!
"Byrd's supervisor told police that Byrd should not have been working the drive-through because he had gotten into a similar incident with another customer, the warrant states."
This guy is probably NOT trolling for a lawsuit and settlement, right?
Where was this? In the US or Canada?
So now its actually a crime, huh? Does this mean rappers who call whites "crackers", etc.. are going to be arrested?
Iran.
