Georgia woman gets cold fries at McDonald's, barges into kitchen and fires gun

A Georgia woman who reportedly fired a gun into the floor of a McDonald's kitchen Monday afternoon had a pretty wild motivation for her crime: cold french fries.

The owner of a McDonald's franchise in Garden City, Ga., said the woman received her order, then returned to the counter to complain about her cold food, according to WTOC.

As the manager went into the kitchen to retrieve hotter fries, the woman allegedly followed him with a gun. She then barged into the kitchen and fired a shot into the floor, according to the owner.

The woman was gone by the time police arrived on the scene but authorities were later able to track her down in her car and arrest her.

And people think I'm a nutcase because I want guns taken away from people.

Perhaps I should just offer prayers and wishes of thanks because she didn't actually shoot someone, but just give her time.

about taking guns away, I get jumped all over by the gun apologists, as I call them.

Maybe they've mostly left, or maybe they stay in the gun areas, or maybe they all have me on ignore, which I wouldn't mind.

The gun fire ricocheted across the kitchen and killed the seventeen year old doing drive thru.

Isn't the wide interpretation of the Second Amendment thrilling and exciting ? Nut cases fire guns because the NRA encouraged them to shoot first and ask questions later,... absent any justification.

Is they caught her in the drive through. I guess she realized she still wanted fries but was too embarrassed to walk inside again so she tried the drive through.

At least that’s what the voices in my head tokd me. They aren’t always right.

Shooting guns at people has become a means of expressing anger,
rage, hate, disapproval, frustration, etc. -- like Tommy shooting
Spider in the movie "Goodfellahs". You pissed me off, so now I'm
gonna shoot you.

The number of people who feel empowered by using a gun is increasing.
I wonder why?
