A McDonald's Employee was shot at work and refused Workmans Comp Benefits http://tinyurl.com/d25g9f Well it looks like McDonald's is not feeling Post-Racial.

According to Raw Story the fast food giant McDonald's has denied workers compensation benefits to a minimum wage employee who was shot when he ejected a customer who had been beating a woman inside the restaurant. http://tinyurl.com/d25g9f

I hope he gets the ACLU or someone on his side quickly. McDonald's , in addition to destroying our overall health in this country, is well known to be a highly unethical employer utlizing the methods known to be part of the fast food trade like encouraging employees to work off the clock, training off the clock, etc.

I dont eat here, either, and I encourage everyone to check out Super Size Me or Fast Food Nation.

he was only 22yrs of age, they asked him if he could...would he do it all over again his response was "yes" I would've to they say in the handbook you are to call 911. by that time she damn there beat to death and it takes the police about 15mins or even more so while you waitin he still pounding on her so the employee did the right thing. you can't put a time pharse on when the cops may get there so by McDonalds saying it wasn't his place and we not paying they making their selves look bad.
