Red Lobster Assault (WTF?!)

[Ronja]

So nobody had a cell phone in that restaurant?

Too busy videoing with the cell phones to make a call.

That's actually a really good reason for why you shouldn't have all-in-one gadgets.

.

I *hate* all-in-one gadgets. Bad usability for at least some of the things they supposedly do, and if anything happens to the blasted thing, you're out of *everything*.

The manager at that restaurant deserves to be fired...he/she is the one who should have called the police immediately. In a big chain like the Red Lobster, I guarantee that there is something in the manager's training handbook that would have covered this...I don't see a manager anywhere in that video, they should have been there on the spot within minutes to deal with it.

Perhaps the manager was off screen calling the police. It looks from the video like the wait staff got the customers out of the restaurant pronto. I can't really blame them for doing that since Red Lobster waitresses probably don't have handcuffs as standard equipment to detain customers until the police arrive.

Or rather a good reason to exercise some good sense and use the damn thing to call the cops rather than try to get on "World's Dumbest Customers #11".

If they were off screen calling the police, then how come the police never arrived?

Police say tips helped them identify three of the four suspected assailants, and more charges are expected to be filed soon.

So you have to tip policemen for service now!??!!

Probably 54%....let's see who gets that obscure ref...

Should I be asking "where are you?"

..and I expected something to do with Dali..

What makes you think police never arrived? They seem to have gotten testimony about what happened from witnesses.

It'a all them Obama democrats in Illinois. They think they own the world.

I never saw that show, tho. Before my time.

If the waitress had been making coffee there would be reason to invoke "Stand Your Grounds."
