Disaster Customer shot KFC worker after being told St. Louis restaurant was out of corn

A customer shot and critically injured a worker at a KFC in St. Louis over a lack of corn.

The man was placing an order in the eatery’s drive-thru lane Monday evening when employees informed him the restaurant was out of corn, police said.

The man grew enraged and threatened the employees over the drive-thru speaker box at the fast food joint located at 5020 Delmar Blvd. in the Central West End neighborhood.

He then drove up to the drive-thru window with a handgun, according to cops.

A 25-year-old employee went out to speak with the man and came back into the KFC minutes later, yelling that he had been shot.

He was shot in the abdomen and taken to an area hospital, where he was listed in critical but stable condition as of Tuesday morning, according to local NBC affiliate KSDK.

The gunman, described as a man in his 40s or 50s, drove off following the shooting and remains at large.

Once again, reality shows itself to be a pale imitation of memes. Truly a prophetic medium.

But really, how do you run out of corn, and how do you love corn to a murderous extent like that. Its not like fast food corn is any better than a can of corn, if your craving it that bad.

I consider memes to be an exaggerated representation of society. Now, it's practically the other way around. They exist and become viral for a reason.

Lesson is, never get between an Amerimutt and his corn.

Well, that certainly narrows it down.

Might be a tad sexist and transphobic, though, with the whole "gunMAN" word and assuming of gender. I think it is ageist as well, since you can't know someone's age by looking at them as there are other factors that can cause the white supremacist descriptions of old age to manifest.

I've taken the liberty of updating the description to something acceptable in 2022*:

Do better.


*description may be speciesist, please consult your local University for more details

Wow, you fucking bigot. A “gun wielder” implies that they have the ability to wield a gun and is extremely insensitive to the disabled. Furthermore you ASSUME this individual’s species identity.

You need to educate yourself so you can stop being being so gross. White supremacy has NO place here on Kiwi Farms.

I’d like to solve the puzzle, Pat.

It’s a real tough one.

That narrows it down.

Well you can bank on the fact that when the race isn't mentioned that means the bad guy wasn't white. So technically that narrows it down some.

Also, their corn sucks. Of all the side dishes to shoot someone over, why corn?

I could understand attempted murder over the biscuits, but the corn? It's not even that good.

It’s a real tough one.

It’s become the most prominent meme on Yahoo News comments whenever there’s an article about a black person committing a crime, which is more often than you think. I’d say every time I check there’s at least 3-5 new articles about a black guy doing something horrific.

I'm convinced these news sites know that we know what it means when the perp has no description and use it to convey that information without saying it outright.

 

[Super-Chevy454]

Probably just cover everything in bullet-proof glass, they push your food through a small slot.

As long they don't snap out and turn into Super Saiyan and try to break the glass.

I could understand this reaction if they were out of gravy, but corn?

Good question, could we said that clip from the Boondocks didn't aged well now?

 

[Mewtwo_Rain]

I wonder if there was a large uptick of these sort of crimes when KFC stopped carrying Potato Wedges as part of its menu. That shit was an actual travesty that even I still dwell on to this day.

But over corn, guy was looking for a reason to murder.

Re: "Why corn instead of X?"

First, they probably would have gone ballistic over anything else being missing too, it just so happened that for some reason the store ran out of corn first.

Second, if the unarmed man with a gun actually has a corn specific obsession, I'm... Pleasantly surprised that someone with the self control of a toddler likes their vegetables.

I'm kinda of convinced that it's some type of autistic nigger, at this point.

Mr Brown was carrying a gun around just looking for an excuse to use it, I reckon.

He was just one incident away from firing it. I'm sure he's a real pleasure to be around.

Aw, whiteboi scared their hatred of BIPOC foods is publicly showing, huh?

At this rate, I wonder if it'll be better get the KFC/McDonalds/Burger King/Wendy's employees armed?

It would be, but most of them couldn't, what with all of those prior felonies and all...
