KMOV

FAIRVIEW HEIGHTS, Ill. (KMOV) – Paramedics treated a server at a Red Lobster in Fairview Heights on Friday after a customer threw a water glass at her head.

It happened at the Red Lobster in the 110 block of Ludwig Drive around 2 p.m.

A witness said she saw three female customers get mad because the server was filling up their glasses with water too often.

According to the witness, as the server walked away one of them picked up a water glass and threw it, hitting the victim in the back of the head.

The witness said as the server turned around, the customer hit her in the face with one of the dessert books.

The server was treated by a paramedic, but did not go to the hospital and stayed at work.

Customers and restaurant employees made sure the women stayed put until police arrived. Officers then arrested the three suspects.

    Is there something in the water (ha ha) in Fairview Heights, Ill.? The article mentioned a previous altercation that was similar.

    Buster Brown, let’s put it this way, if you put them in a cage, they’d be throwing their poop. If they are going to act like an animal they shouldn’t be surprised to be treated and called animals.

    Sounds like some lowrider chicks I used to party with back in jr high. Took them out to eat just for the excitement when there was nothing else to do. Don’t think we ever had time to actually pay for the meal on the way out.

    Re: Customer Service

    All employees are required to have CCW licensing within 30 days. Pistols and holsters will be provided to all employees; you are responsible for damaged or lost firearms. Wearing your firearm in plain sight at all times while servicing the public is mandatory. Shooting accuracy and response time will be prominent factors in employee evaluations and promotion considerations. Gang-style sideways grip is grounds for immediate dismissal.

    Stay safe, and thank you for your cooperation.

    @xavier – if they’re required to wear their sidearms in plain view then they wouldn’t need CCW permits.

    Not a bad idea: look up your State law about open carry, and then have everyone strap on a sidearm.

    …instant polite society.

    (BTW, little secret…apply for a CCW permit in Utah. Pay about $200, take a test & voila. It’s recognized in about 35 states. You’re legal most anywhere but progtard utopias.

    FoF, I really know that. It’s not totally about pretty though. It’s that the average white woman isn’t as bossy as black women. Black women are pretty masterful at emasculating black men. No wonder so many of them run fast and hard after the fling in the sack.

    Not really, sometimes I feel the same way. But that not might not be real world and maybe we need to recruit descent people over to our side. How do you feel about Allen West? I AM telling you I certainly understand how you feel. But I have met some pretty decent black people here lately. The ones I’ve met are all x military. But then you read stories like this and get pissed.

    I hear you Brad. Why my own son tells me of how the world is waiting for my kind to die off. Old white devil is a fitting expression for me. But we older folks remember a lot about the old days, of which I won’t bother, instead, just look at all the problems we are having with a race of people who are never satisfied, and will never fit into our mainstream culture of European ancestry. I have no tolerance anymore for any group that wants more than their proportional share, who feel they are entitled via the endless reasons they come up with. We can’t all be millionaires can we? Who’ll clean the streets? Even Jesus stated the poor will always be among you. We’ll never really fit together. I’m a realist in my own design. The race argument is literally eternal, but for some (like me) their is no turning back. Maybe the world would be better off without MY kind, but for now I’m here. America changed drastically from the Sixties and Seventies, and I can’t imagine what it’ll be like in another fifty years. Thank goodness I’ll be long dead before then.

    A couple thoughts.

    When you start getting a little older you start thinking about how many times those “Older People Have Been Right” and start thinking HMMM. I’m 56 and my fathers been gone a while and recently there’s been times I sure wish I had his advise. Your kid will feel the same way and hopefully sooner then later.

    Black immigrants currently come here and succeed. I saw a John Stossel episode on the amount of businesses Haitian emigrants were starting in Florida and they were comparing it to the general population of black people, it was astonishing.
    Mia Love case in point.

    The democratic progressives are to blame. The culture of dependency fall squarely on the shoulders. I hope when the race war starts on Nov. 7th they are the first ones in the line of fire.

    We do need the Allen Wests and the rest on our side.

    I’m really surprised the news put a photo of those women out there. They’re disinclined to do that when blacks are the perps. They also don’t like to disclose the neames if they’re easily identifiable as belonging to blacks; e.g. Shanequa, Clitoria.

    As for appropriate YouTubes, don’t forget THIS classic of four years ago:

    I saw the video of this on LiveLeak. The customers were, indeed, ghetto blacks. It is not possible to provide good service to ghetto blacks. If you try, they give you no tip. If you try harder, they take offense and assault you. The reason why is that thug ghetto blacks are stupid psychopaths who walk into the restaurant with a giant chip on their shoulder and, no matter how good the server treats them, the stupid psychopathic thug ghetto blacks will take offense because, though the prism of their monstrous stupidity, everything is an insult just as they are an insult on the entire face of western civilization.

    It’s no wonder why Jim Crow laws banned blacks from restaurants. The thug ghetto variety shouldn’t be anywhere near anything remotely resembling civilized society because they simply refuse to act civilized.

    from article:

    A similar incident occurred Dec. 30 when four customers punched and pushed a waitress because they were unhappy with the service, police said. That waitress received a swollen eye and cuts on her nose and forehead. At least one person has been charged in that incident. Ania Wilkes, 20, of the 800 block of Cernicek Lane in Ferguson, faces two felonies: aggravated battery and mob action.

    A Red Lobster spokesperson called the incident “unfortunate” and said “the safety of our employees and guests is our highest priority.”

    (BFH – thanks for making my Submit A Tip a thread)

    Rosalind, there definitely IS something in the water, something I’ve been preaching against for decades – FLUORIDATION!! It will rob us of our vital essence.

    As for Red Lobster, the name is appropriate. The only way that parent corporation Darden Restaurants could make the name more accurate is to rename it Commie Lobster. Darden is one of the most far-left of American restaurant chains. They also own Olive Garden.
