Who has the time and inclination to go to a fast food restaurant and harass young employees? The world is full of so many serious problems and she thinks her ridiculous behavior is justified?

Guess she just wanted something to post of social media, evidently unaware that SHE is the one who looks like a total ass.

maybe some of these obnoxious bigots are just con artists looking to make some easy cash. Of course, they may really be bigots as well.

I can't imagine wasting my valuable time and energy on such exhausting pursuits and I'm retired.

Also I've worked in restaurants and retail and I bend over backwards to treat employees with courtesy and respect.

I think that the US should require young teenagers to do a stint in customer service. It's not the same when you realize that you won't have to do this for life, but still, more people would grow up to be more considerate.

It's a wonderful sentiment, but that POS (and all the other POS) will still go through life completely oblivious to the world around them.

then she has to stop filming and if she had refused to leave, then she's trespassing and is subject to arrest.

Kudos for the owner standing up for Lily and kicking that Karen off the property.

then this is a lawyer one should stay as far away from as possible because she doesn't know with the hell she's talking about.

They see something they think is legal, whether or not it is, and proclaim they have the right to do whatever the f' they want to
Unlike the real Sea Lawyers, who knew the regulations inside and out, and could figure out how to get around them to get something done.
