Woman hurled racial abuse at Burger King worker because her Whopper's tomato was sliced too thick


A Florida woman has been arrested and charged with felony battery after she threw a sandwich at a Burger King worker while pelting her with racial slurs.

The Smoking Gun reports that 77-year-old retiree Judith Black became unruly in her local Burger King after being served a Whopper with a tomato that was allegedly sliced too thick.

As shown by surveillance camera footage in the store, Black proceeded to angrily complain about the tomato's thickness to a female Burger King employee, who advised Black that she would have to calm down before her complaints would be addressed.

The employee then turned her back on the customer, who proceeded to hurl her Whopper at the employee while calling her a "Black b*tch." ............(more)

It doesn't take much to set them off. I can't imagine going through life with that much hatred and anger inside me all the time.

She kind of looks a little like Paula Deen, except the MAGAt, much less attractive version. I guess that's what hate does to your visage after a while.

This is the classic case of White Chistian Privilege in America unleashed by the former orange fuhrer. Hope she enjoyed her despicable rant and exposing her bigotry.

Constantly on the lookout for offenses against one's person like thick-cut tomatoes or someone walking around masked. Gotta be on hair trigger 24-7, ready to go off anytime.

looks like someone was trying to make her a "vegan" or "vegetarian".

I'd wager she could stand to lower her cholesterol level, but what do I know?
