Most Americans can't cook and out of the one's that can a large number of them can't season properly so mediocre food at best is considered good. I don't get it either the vast majority of these fast food chains suck and are mediocre at best including Popeyes.

I don't think most people would generalize a whole city like that unless they are ignorant of the situation or uneducated as to how numbers in one area can drive up the overall stats for the aggregate. Of course there will always be better parts to a city that are a lot more safe than the overall numbers indicate.
I have family from Milwaukee. My father is a native. He comes from the North Side. Milwaukee isn't THE most dangerous city in America. Milwaukee does have alot of crime, alot of violent crime. Believe or not, Milwaukee's murder rate is similar to Chicago's murder rate. Milwaukee has alot of other violent crimes going on there. Statistically, Milwaukee has the 6th highest violent crime rate in the USA. Aggravated assault, robbery, and murder are among the big ones in Milwaukee.

I was merely addressing it from a statistical perspective, and from what I know about Milwaukee from family members.

Because they likely haven't yet found meaning in their lives, and something as insignificant as a sandwich becomes disproportionately important to them.

This is not about the sandwich. What you saw at Popeyes is the kind of crap that happens at other fast food establishments. It is literally nothing new. This is not just a Popeyes issue, and it would have taking place over something besides chicken. Popeyes is just part of it.

McDonalds.

This was at a McDonald's in Ypsilanti, Michigan. From what I've heard, that McDonald's location is now closed.

This was in Chicago.

This happened in Florida, over a straw ban.

Freedom of choice is a wonderful thing. Embrace it. I sure do. Just keep your damn hands to yourself.

Thank God for the drive thru. If I absolutely have to eat at a fast food place I want to keep my exposure to a minimum. Though my area doesn't generally have these issues that I have seen.

That fight in Popeyes has little to do with a chicken sandwich. This is just underclass behavior. This is just the kind of violence that happens at gas stations, the dollar store , several fast food places, etc.
