Hot Sauce Triggers Fast-Food Shooting

(CBS/AP)  Authorities in Miami say a manager at a Wendy's was shot several times in the arm after an argument about chili sauce.

Police say a man in the Miami Gardens restaurant's drive-through argued with an employee because he wanted more of the condiment. The worker told the customer that the restaurant's limit was three packets. Police say the man insisted on 10 and eventually got them, but then wanted even more.

Miami-Dade police spokesman Mary Walter says the manager then came out — and was shot in the left arm, reports CBS station WFOR. He was taken to a nearby hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

The customer fled with a female passenger and his chili sauce.

"...the man insisted on 10 and eventually got them, but then wanted even more."

Just like the IRS really. Except it's in the thou$ands. Let this poor chili bandit harvest the exact same the tree of entitlement.

Wait. On second thought, let's respect the store's private property. It's their chili sauce. Now somebody has to tell the IRS about this excellent plan. The hypocrisy is hillarious.

GunOwnerDan if the manager had a gun at the time of this incident the chili sauce bandit would have shot him dead on the assumption he would shoot back.

Yeah, give the thugs what they want. Appeasement always works.

First of all, the customer isn't always right. Many fast food establishments put reasonable limits on the quantity of condiments per order before requiring an additional charge.

As far as those that do not believe that the employee will see any benefits from the employer, you can bet that the employee's medical insurance carrier, whether through the employer or not will make sure that the bills are paid, then will take the perpetrator for everything they have, if anything.

I'm not sure where some people get that you shouldn't be loyal to your employer, but I'm sure glad I don't with you.

And no, I don't work for Wendy's, nor am I in a management position in the company I work for.

The mistake they made was to have given him any chili at all.

Obviously he was feeling hot hot hot! LOL

I hope that company chilli sauce is worth your pain right now!! And good luck getting your disability benefits from your employer! MORON!!

Are you seriously telling me that you think it was the restaurant or employee's fault that some psycopathic dipshit opened up with a gun because he didn't get his hot sauce?

"Whatever happened to 'the customer is always right'"? ***! Whatever happened to not shooting people over frigging condiments, for crissake? Are you nuts?

No way. Thank goodness he didn't give this human example of pig manure what he wanted. Obviously the jerk has been given everything he wanted since he was a little bitty baby. Now maybe the police will accidently catch this guy if he rolls through a stop sign or somethin.

But there is no way he deserved that much chili sauce. If he wants that much let him buy a bottle of Heinze chili sauce (probably 1/4 corn syrup though). Maybe he can get all the chili sauce he wants in prison if the so-called criminal justice system stumbles upon him somehow.
