Grandma Arrested at McDonald's Drive-Thru. ...Seriously?
So I heard about this from my dad, who just saw it on ABC Action News, so I went and found it online.

While this is completely random, I felt like it deserved some airtime. Honestly, maybe she was blocking some cars, but does the police's 5-10 minute wait really decrease his quality of life that much that he felt the need to arrest grandma? Also- she might have cursed at him, but that's also within her constitutional rights. Just because he couldn't deal with being pwned by an elderly lady doesn't mean he needs to get so official. And really? One has to wait in line at a drive-thru before getting served? There's a revelation.
Random comments to bring to attention:
On the TBO site:
URY914 : "You have no idea what the lady said to the cop when he asked her to move up. What if she said, "I ain't movin' for no GD babyface punka$$ cop like you. I want my GD fries and I got a gun under my seat." I'm taking the cop's side on this one. Maybe one day you a-holes will need a cop's help with something."
Just imagining Grandma saying that cracks me up to no end. Funny mental image eh? The records as posted on other sites say that she called him a "brat" and a "dumb shit." Honestly, that's not grounds for arrest. McDonald's is private property. Ever heard of freedom of speech? Isn't that one of the core foundations of this country anyhow?

Cherry: Good! Happy to see the police cracking down on people blocking the drive-thru. After illegal immigration, it’s a major problem.
I think that about sums up what I had to say. I guess this cop just didn't have enough donuts that morning. I feel so safe now that police in this country are tackling such important issues on a daily basis. After all, grandmas getting decaf coffees and salt-free fries pose a grave threat to civilians' safety.
