would you like pot with that? wrote:

My theory is that the officers recalled a local incident, about a year ago, where a kid spit in a cop's hamburger. The cop got a handsome settlement from the burger chain. Going to the hospital was the first step in a process to nab some large bucks. |

We all know that weed sprinkled on burger does nothing. The act itself is one of vanalism though. |

At the very least it's justified. You can't have drive in restaurants where jerk offs put whatever they want on a burger. Otherwise the next time it may be acid etc. |

At the very least it's justified. You can't have drive in restaurants where jerk offs put whatever they want on a burger. Otherwise the next time it may be acid etc. (ridiculous cross-postings snipped) Exactly. The idiots have no right to tamper with food under any circumstances. Doesn't matter if they thought they were being cute or whatever other reason they may have had. But I think the employees should be the ones sued. Unless their manager was complicit in their actions, BK itself really isn't at fault. (Of course, minimum wage BK employees don't have any money to cough up.) Jill |

Suit: Burger King sold pot burgers to cops
November 7, 2006 ALBUQUERQUE, New Mexico (AP) -- Two police officers sued Burger King Corp., claiming they were served hamburgers that had been sprinkled with marijuana. The lawsuit says Mark Landavazo and Henry Gabaldon, officers for the Isleta Pueblo tribal police, were in uniform and riding in a marked patrol car when they bought meals at the drive-through lane October 8 of a Burger King restaurant in Los Lunas, New Mexico. The officers ate about half of their burgers before discovering marijuana on the meat, the lawsuit said. They used a field test kit to confirm the substance was pot, then went to a hospital for medical evaluations. "It gives a whole new meaning to the word 'Whopper,"' the officers' attorney, Sam Bregman, said Monday. "The idea that these hoodlums would put marijuana into a hamburger and therefore attempt to impair law enforcement officers trying to do their jobs is outrageous." Three Burger King employees were arrested and charged with possession of marijuana and aggravated battery on an officer, a felony. They later were indicted. The lawsuit, filed Friday in Bernalillo County, alleges personal injury, negligence, battery and violation of fair practices. It seeks unspecified damages along with legal costs. Officials at Miami-based Burger King declined to comment, citing a company policy against discussing pending litigation. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On Tue, 07 Nov 2006 21:58:47 -0600, wrote: On Tue, 7 Nov 2006 20:37:40 -0500, "Head Shot" wrote: OK; now granted that was not a cool thing for the idiotic BK employees to do; but they went to a hospital because they ate a little weed?

I think it may have also been to document this incident, in case they failed a drug test at some time in the near future. If they were drug tested and had not done this and showed up positive, how would they have explained it? |
