What is wrong with people these days! :boxing: NORWELL, Mass. — Authorities say a couple, upset over the slowness of their Kentucky Fried Chicken order, assaulted a man who asked them to stop yelling profanities for the sake of children in line. The couple was arrested Thursday after witnesses told police the couple beat the man as he was leaving the restaurant. Police say 31-year-old Jared Garfagna of Marshfield punched the man in the head, and then Garfagna's girlfriend, 24-year-old Sara Mohn, kicked the man. The victim had cuts on his eyelid and wrists. Mohn has been charged with assault and battery with a dangerous weapon. Garfagna has been ordered to appear in court on assault and battery charges. It's unclear whether either has hired an attorney. http://www.wral.com/news/national_world/national/story/6129224/
They should be BANNED from all restaurants. Not just KFC. If they don't know how to act, they need to stay their butts home. I'll tell you right now, if I see kids around and someone is talking dirty, I will say something too. I hope nobody ever tries to fight me over it, but I just gotta say something!!
So now instead of hearing bad words, they also got to witness their father being beat. That must have been horrifying! There is such a lack of respect for others anymore. I'm an adult and while I might drop some bad words in front of my husband sometimes, I don't do it in public and I can't stand to be sitting in a restaurant and overhear it from the next table.
Off topic a little, but this reminded me of a man I saw yelling obscenities at another man yesterday five feet away from me and my daughter at the "Day Out With Thomas" event in Spencer. Had things escalated any more, and I would've had to say something. He kept saying, "I'll show you who I am when I bust that a$$" and stuff like that. Totally inappropriate for little ears. They need to be put in jail for a VERY long time.
My husband had to say something to a table full of people cussing at a restaurant last year. They kept dropping the F bomb repeatedly and loudly. He asked them politely to please be considerate of those of us with children. They ignored him of course, then he got the manager. Who CLEARLY did not want to get involved, but finally stepped up and asked them to leave. DH is not afraid to confront people, but didn't want to provoke a fist fight in the restaurant over stupidity. People have no manners whatsover anymore.
I am the big mouth in my marriage and also am not afraid to say something, but people are crazy and you never know who is carrying a gun and has nothing to lose anymore!
Depending on what type of environment it was, as a manager I probably wouldn't have gotten into it either. As an example if you walk into a sports bar on Sunday afternoon during football season, what do you expect to hear? Church hymns, silence, people chatting in a low whisper, or fans yelling for/against certain teams usually with some form of profanity and usually adult beverages? Each environment requires different allowences for what is and isn't acceptable behavior.
It was a fast food place in the middle of the day, not a sports bar. I'm well aware of what is acceptable in different environments. 8)
While you may have enough common sense, there are plenty of people who don't. Just take a trip most Sunday's to BWW, Ale House, or any other sports related bar and you will see what I stated my comment. I've personally witnessed people get irate due to the fact that they themselves lost their common sense and brought a 6-7 year old into one such place and then complained when the fans in said place got too loud cheering for their team. Just because the sky's blue and grass is green, doesn't mean that everyone knows or has the common sense to know it. And that just because you have the common sense, doesn't mean that your next door neighbor, Jane Johnson, does.
