Hard to top the comment posted by one terrencekeenan
If times are so tough economically, why were they eating Rally’s? It’s much cheaper to cook at home.
But besides that point, it sounds like another whiny “american” unable to lay the responsibility where it should truly lie: with the violent prone idiot who gets mad over a hamburger.
I wonder if the Post doesn’t make up some of these articles and quotes sometimes just to be funny. Either way, it’s certainly more entertaining than the Onion.
Must have been some pretty serious weed for those kinds of munchies.
“Andrews said tough economic times may have factored into the argument.”
I knew they would slip “Bush’s Fault” in there somewhere.
What an unHappy Meal that must have been...
Keep yo hands off my burger....PING!!
I got high blood pressure and high blood sugar. Been on this damn diet for 136 years. I’d kill for a cheeseburger!!!!
It is America, food is so scarce and the economy is so bad that you have to fight for your food to stave off starvation.>S<
But they have money to go to a restaurant at 1AM.
Two gals wrestling over a burger. One was the aunt to the other. Who on earth would kill their niece over a burger.
involuntary manslaughter? Wonder what the minimum is for that over there.
Sometimes they tack on the weapons charges later on...
Homeboy wants my burger!
Homeboy wants my burger!!!!
The aunt was aiming at the niece’s boyfriend; it will probably be argued as a case of self-defense gone awry.
Guns don’t kill people. Fast food kills people.
"Wherry and Jenkins' boyfriend began wrestling over the food, police said. Wherry then picked up a gun and fired it toward the boyfriend but instead hit Jenkins, who was standing behind her boyfriend, police said."
Don’t you mean tribal?
