    6:47 it’s like if McDonald’s gets sued for false advertising by random people asking “where’s the beef” as in the thin everlasting patties while In the ads the beef were mostly thick n juicy.

    The two men were NOT arrested for "nothing"! They were arrested for loitering. The policy of "Customers-Only Bathrooms" is very common in busy areas. These two men were told they had to be customers (buy something) to use the restroom and they refused. They were ASKED to leave and still refused. This is why they were arrested; NOT for "nothing" and not for racism. Only a racist finds racism where there is none.

    During the Jack in the Box e. coli outbreak, one local branch ALSO had a salmonella scare! When I introduced my then-girlfriend to my parents, my dad suggested we go to that one particular Jack in the Box for dinner. I was appalled, but that was when my girlfriend decided if my dad was that goofy, I was a keeper. We've been married for over thirty years now, and my dad passed away a couple of years ago.

    I worked at Jack in the Box during the e-coli outbreak. We were one of the busiest since we were one block from the university and across the street from the main police station. We went from thousands of dollars worth of sales at lunch to barely a couple of hundred. It was crazy.

    Often lawsuits are legitimate, but some people in this country look for people to sue hoping for a quick payout. Ever notice when some local occurs, the "victim" sues for $10,000, but have the same incident occur with a celebrity involved and the same person will attempt to sue for $50 million?

    There was a case maybe a decade ago in my area where a guy was in the starting phase of suing his lawyer claiming he did not receive as much money as he felt he was owed after the lawyer took out his own fee after winning the case (fees are determined long beforehand). As far as I know he never went through with it. The case was likely thrown out or someone pointed out that it would cost him more money for a new lawyer than he would have received winning the lawsuit.
