Waffle House employee killed after customer becomes irate, police say

The customer became “agitated and verbally abusive” toward employees at a Waffle House in Laurinburg, North Carolina, on Friday night, according to a police statement posted on Facebook.

After the customer was given his food, he started walking toward his car, before turning around and firing two shots, police said.

How is this news? It’s a Waffle House in the south. I feel like an actual eldritch horror could come in eat five customers and their server and another server would come out to say “That’ll be 18.50, would you like a side of hashbrowns with it sweetee?”

The ONLY way this could have been Prevented LITERALLY was if the Employee SHOT the Person before they could Shoot them! That’s LITERALLY the Only way we could have Prevented this Tragedy! LITERALLY!

Waffle House unfortunately always lives up to its bad reputation.

Crazy shit is almost always going down in a bad way in a Waffle House.

Their food is very good and at a low price.

This is why the death penalty should continue to exist. This fuckstick killed someone over a fucking waffle. There’s over 8 billion people on this planet now we’ll survive just fine without this piece of shit.

The primary argument against the death penalty are the sheer number of people who were executed in spite of later being found innocent.

Just because it doesn’t apply in this particular case doesn’t mean anything needs to change.

The legal system does not have 100% accuracy.

You have to be a special kind of asshole to shoot at someone who just made you waffles.

I’d guess at least some chance of drugs being involved.

I was just in a restaurant where some presumably meth head got a sandwich. Kept talking to the air, doing circuits around the place, couldn’t sit still for a minute, was getting himself agitated talking to the air.

I remember watching Donut Operator – an ex-cop who used to be on a SWAT team and who does commentary on a bunch of YouTube videos. He’s said a number of times that the people that he least liked having to deal with when working as an officer were the meth addicts. Really unpredictable, could wind up becoming violent after acting normal a moment earlier.

Chances are, the kid who got shot wasn’t even the cook…
