KFC accused of kicking out girl, 3, scarred in pit bull attack By Ralph Ellis and Joe

Re: KFC accused of kicking out girl, 3, scarred in pit bull attack By Ralph Ellis and

I would say if her face was scaring other customers, those customers are spineless wimps. That little girl is still beautiful.

My sentiments exactly. :thumbs:

Some people are idiots. I'm sure fast food places have an even higher idiot ratio.

And to think someone who would make that precious child leave a restaurant deserves a higher paying minimum wage? Geeze...

Sorry. Too soon for the thread?

There's got to be more to this story.

Nobody is that heartless.

Maybe not, but someone could definitely be that stupid.

This whole boycott nonsense is just that though, this has nothing even to do with KFC at all, could have just been some over zealous franchisee or manager.

KFC has more than made up for it IMO.
 
Re: KFC accused of kicking out girl, 3, scarred in pit bull attack By Ralph Ellis and

Well, it was the truth :lol:

:( That's actually kind of sad.

So you've never actually, um, eaten burger king?

I think KFC did exactly the right thing and I suspect that there will be some retraining going on in the stores. No doubt that this was an individual decision and not a corporate one.

LMAO. Unknown employee/owner/manager paid an unknown wage makes dumb decision in one of tens of thousands of fast food restaurants ====> all a bunch of idiots who are lucky to make minimum wage!!! :lamo

I agree with an earlier comment - "KFC" did nothing wrong. A very dumb person working for KFC made an unbelievably heartless and unconscionable decision.

Assuming the story is true... I have my doubts.

I can help you with that. haha
 
Re: KFC accused of kicking out girl, 3, scarred in pit bull attack By Ralph Ellis and

You're off on the timeline of the story. Her face was bitten some time ago (around April). This KFC incident just happened (like sometime in the last few days) as the girl's grandmother was bringing her home from a doctor's appointment. And the grandmother taking her places said that it was her "other" grandfather (so the other side of the family) who owned the dogs that bit the girl. Two different incidents.
I know the girl was attacked awhile ago but are you sure it was the grandfather on the other side of the family? Because the granny accusing KFC has the same last name as the grandfather that was accused (Mullins), if they were on the other side then why would they have the same surname?
 
Re: KFC accused of kicking out girl, 3, scarred in pit bull attack By Ralph Ellis and

I'm going to have to strongly disagree. The reason this story of one jerk being so ugly, insensitive, and stupid and "overly responsive to customer complaints" made the news is because most people aren't thoughtlessly cruel like this.

As for the customers (what, one or two?), the feeding tube should've been a clue. I don't know how you "fix" people who see a tot with a feeding tube and terrible facial injury and not have empathy.

But once in the parking lot of a big-box store, I saw a little girl walking with her mother, and I think she had "Elephant Man's Disease." Other children did point and scream and almost everybody stared, and it was terrible. You'd think that parents would've already taught their elementary-schoolers how to behave around those who are other-abled or disfigured or morbidly obese or whatever.

You're right, most people aren't, but as I said, plenty are.

KFC forked over $30K, I think someone was that heartless....and promptly fired.
 
Re: KFC accused of kicking out girl, 3, scarred in pit bull attack By Ralph Ellis and

These are the same imbeciles that think they deserve $15 per hour.




I would support raising all minimum wage workers pay a good bit.

$7.50 an hour is too low, even for someone living with their parents, but no burger flipper deserves $15.00/hour.


I read that KFC apologized and donated $30,000 to that child.

That was the right thing to do.

nah customers are the same wherever you go

And you see ill-bred behavior even at upscale places.

doesn't effect what fast food workers in general should make at all
 
Re: KFC accused of kicking out girl, 3, scarred in pit bull attack By Ralph Ellis and

shameful story though definitely not right to kick the kid out even if other customers are bothered wonder if it was a manger the ones I have are nice people and I don't believe they would ever do something like this but the their the people in a restaurant who are really under pressure to sell and who might worry about some one driving away business
 
Re: KFC accused of kicking out girl, 3, scarred in pit bull attack By Ralph Ellis and

Wait a minute, assuming the story is true, the background is somewhat confusing, the article states that the grandmother brought the child to visit the grandfather, who had a girlfriend living with him (along with the granny?! Were they in a threesome?) and then the dogs attacked the child? And they (the grandfather and his girlfriend but not the granny) got arrested? And now its the grandmother thats accusing KFC about being insensitive?

Something is fishy here...

I agree. This story reeks of manipulation. Pretext for an Out-of-Court settlement, or something.

Its like the AGW domestic Eco-Liberal terrorism. If it sounds too horrible to be true, it probably is...

KFC offered $30,000 towards her medical bills at the same time they announced they were investigating. As of today, they have not released any details of their investigation.

That is what the grandmother said in the video. I have no idea what the situation is, but it definitely does not sound like the grandmother liked the grandfather at all, so I have no idea why you would assume they were still together if he has a girlfriend. I have not seen anything that says that they were living together nor that the grandmother took the granddaughter over to the grandfather's house and that is when she got mauled.

There are many interesting posts on the Facebook page that are coming out. Here is one of them:

"If anyone was wondering, apparently this isn’t the real story of what happened. According to people in the town, Kelly had approached the store manager to ask that they throw several children out because they were staring at Victoria. Not making fun of her or bullying her, just staring. The manager had no reason to throw them out because they weren’t being openly rude or nasty to the point of unreasonableness, so she refused. Then the grandmother started getting angry because the manager wouldn’t do what she said and became so disruptive that she was the one asked to leave. At no point did anyone say that they were being thrown out of the store because of the injuries to Victoria’s face. It was all because the grandmother reacted poorly to children showing a natural curiosity over Victoria’s injuries. Maybe the children’s parents could have asked them to stop staring because it was impolite, but according to the stories going around, they weren’t doing anything over the top.

After they left, the grandmother started going to every news station she could and told everyone that KFC was mean to them, all the while telling them that she was doing a fundraiser to pay for Victoria’s hospital bills. I hope that none of this is true, but it sounds a little too reasonable for my comfort level."


Interesting.

That sounds a little more realistic than the grandmother's version. If this is the case, I can understand the grandmother may feel sensitive to how her granddaughter looks and how other people are going to react, however she needs to learn how to handle it better or else she herself is going to be the one to make her granddaughter feel bad about herself.

I hate to sound like a skeptic, but I really think there is more to the story than the grandmother's version. That post makes sense. And let's face it..there are con artists and flim flammers everywhere. She wouldn't be the first person to lie about something, and she also wouldn't be the first person to use a sick child for personal gain.

Everyone can call me heartless all day. I just think there's something amiss here.
