Sounds like Herrera didn’t realize he was facing Quickdraw Molina.

Your truncated title is horrible, but I do enjoy a feel good story.

Yeah, I threatened the software but it wouldn't give.

[AnotherUnixGeek]

I disagree. I’ve tried to give Popeye’s the benefit of the doubt, but their food tatstes bad, small portions, and high prices. Tried three different locations—they’re all the same. Blah.

Tastes vary, of course. My palate tells me that Popeye's makes some very tasty fast food - the red beans and rice are amazing, the popcorn shrimp is addictive, and the fried chicken is miles ahead of anything KFC will ever offer. For what it is - fast food - Popeye's is right up there with In-N-Out for me.

Maybe it was after a basketball game or a “Winter Solstice Holiday Concert” or something.

[OKSooner]

Oh, back to the story.

Well played, Sr. Molina. In the same situation, one would hope to do as you did.

[fwdude]

I’ve come to view most fast food the same way, overpriced, poor quality, unhealthy and usually highly salted to cover the putrid flavor, or lack thereof.

I think I may have been spoiled by some of the grocery/recipe delivery services, like Blue Apron. Good food, fresh produce that you prepare, and completely customizeable as far as seasoning. Now, fast food tastes like not food to me.

[Cowboy Bob]

Yeah, you right!

Luv dat chicken

[fwdude]

Point taken. I didn’t note the ages of the kids either.

I cringe when I see people out in public late with toddlers and small children.

[Navy Patriot]

The UK's Daily Mail, reporting stories American news media fail to cover.

Generally speaking, yes.

However I did see this in US MSM, and chose Daily Mail to deny hits to Time and CNN.

[Envisioning]

No, no, no.....the media has told us this never happens. (((ping)))

[ProtectOurFreedom]

I read about 100 of the comments at DM. All but one are from the US and are supportive. Not one written by a Brit bed wetter. One from Germany pointing out that age 19 is not a teen. Most congratulate Dad on his gun control.

[FiddlePig]

A Republican Hispanic gun vs a Democrat Hispanic gun?

[niteowl77]

Rename the place, Popeye Molina’s Fried Chicken, and give his family a lifetime of free chicken.

Or maybe "Dead-eye's Fried Chicken."

[Navy Patriot]

Yep, I have little to quarrel about, with the Daily Mail.

[DarthVader]

Andres Herrera is the disease! The .357 Magnum is the cure!

[Lurker]

2 piece spicy white. Mashed potatoes.

Yum.

People who work long hours

[JimRed]

The headline makes it sound as though after shooting the thug he threatened the thug’s kids.

[Delta 21]

Just thinking.......(Please dont force me to kill you. Situational awareness check. Immediately after the first distraction I am putting bullet holes in you............)

[ronniesgal]

good grief. call social services! at least he made sure his kids are eating, although not on your time schedule.
You feel better if it was after Bible group?
