A Burger King customer who phoned police to complain her meal wasn't cooked perfectly was quickly put in her place after being slammed for wasting emergency services' time. The fast food giant have released audio from a 911 call handed to them by police. The American woman can be heard ranting about her experience at a drive-thru, to the shock of the dispatcher. She claims she asked staff four different times to make her Western Barbecue Burger just the way she wanted it. After opening the bag, the diner demanded an officer come to her location before being informed her she didn’t have a criminal complaint.

Police were on guard and nearby residents and parents stood mourning outside a hospital in Senegal where a fire in the neonatal unit killed 11 newborns. Only three infants could be saved, President Macky Sall said before calling on Thursday for three days of mourning for the young lives lost. Mamadou Mbaye, who witnessed the fire Wednesday at the Abdoul Aziz Sy Dabakh Hospital in Tivaouane, a town 120 kilometers (75 miles) northeast of the capital, Dakar, told The Associated Press that conditions inside the hospital were “atrocious.” “It was hot and smoky inside with a suffocating heat, and there was a power outage,” Mr. Mbaye said. Grieving parents were still in shock. “I baptized my child on Wednesday, and he was baptized here in the hospital. To my great shock, I got a call to tell me that the neonatal section had been destroyed by a fire,” said Badara Faye, who lost his son. Moustapha Cisse, who also lost a newborn, said they are still awaiting answers on how such a … [Read more...] about 11 babies killed in fire at Senegalese hospital

Quinta Brunson, the creator and star of “Abbott Elementary,” is shocked that fans of the show are asking her to write an episode about school shootings. Brunson, 32, took to Twitter on Wednesday — just one day after a gunman entered a Texas elementary school classroom and killed 19 children and two teachers — to question why viewers are reaching out to her — and not their elected officials — to address the mass shootings. “Wild how many people have asked for a school shooting episode of the show I write,” wrote Brunson in a series of tweets. “People are that deeply removed from demanding more from the politicians they’ve elected and are instead demanding ‘entertainment.’ I can’t ask ‘are yall ok’ anymore because the answer is ‘no,’” she continued . “please use that energy to ask your elected official to get on Beto time and nothing less. I’m begging you,” she went on , referring to Texas gubernatorial contender and gun control advocate Beto O’Rourke. “I … [Read more...] about Quinta Brunson explains why there won’t be a shooting episode of ‘Abbott Elementary’

I find myself more shaken and stricken after this week's latest mass shooting, the elementary school massacre in Uvalde, Texas, that saw 19 children and two teachers slain in cold blood, than I did after other mass shootings in recent years. Part of that is biographical: As an ex-Texan, the son of an elementary school teacher and the owner of a rifle made by the same manufacturer as was the apparent murder weapon, this just hit home a little closer. And part of that, of course, is the sheer nature of the evil incarnate the likes of which decides to go shoot up a schoolhouse. The palpable nature of that profound evil in our midst is yet the latest reminder of the truism, contrary to modern convention though that truism may be, that man is by his nature inclined toward iniquity. As God Himself says in Genesis 8:21 , "The imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth." Naturally inclined toward tradition, conservatives—if perhaps no one else—intuit this. As the great conservative … [Read more...] about The difficult search for answers after Uvalde | Opinion

A group of protesters gathered peacefully Wednesday in front of one of Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump's New York City skyscrapers to protest his comment from January that he "could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody" without losing support from voters. About 40 people from the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence and other gun-control advocates gathered outside of the candidate's headquarters for the so called die-in demonstration. On the stretch in front of the building, they briefly laid down and covered themselves in white sheets to represent the 90 Americas who are killed by gun violence each day. Then they stood up and repeatedly chanted, "Ninety a day, no more, no way!" Some held signs that read, "Hey Trump, gun violence is not a joke," "Not one more [gun death]" and "Love Trumps hate." The entire event lasted just 10 minutes, but the participants said they hope Trump hears their message. "We don't think talking about killing people … [Read more...] about Anti-gun protesters stage “die-in” outside of Trump Tower

Of the things Donald Trump has said since he began hinting at a presidential candidacy, the one that most requires challenging is his assertion that people keep asking him to run. Journalists are vigilant defenders of truth when the subject is President Obama's birthplace or OPEC prices. They are credulous when it comes to explaining populist movements. They assume the impetus always comes from the demand side. People are "fed up"! There is an "anti-incumbent sentiment" in the air! Such demand-side sentiments can explain a lot—but not why certain members of the public might wish to be governed by a billionaire yahoo. For that, it is just as important to look at the supply side. Trump's candidacy comes from a sociological fact—the steady rise of plutocracy over the last quarter century—as well as a public sentiment. The truth is not universally enough acknowledged that a man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of political influence. Diversifying one's portfolio to include … [Read more...] about Donald Trump and the Rise of Plutocracy

Salvador Ramos, the teenage gunman who killed 21 people including 19 children on Tuesday at Uvalde's Robb Elementary School, had been arrested four years ago for planning to shoot up a school when he turned 18 years old, Texas Representative Tony Gonzales said. In an interview with Fox News on Friday morning, Gonzales claimed the shooter was arrested when he was 14 "for saying, you know, when I'm a senior in 2022, I am going to shoot up a school." Gonzales' claim has not been confirmed by any official source. Authorities have previously said Ramos had no criminal record and no documented history of mental illness. The Republican congressman said the claim was not "hearsay" but information that he was given "late last night." He did not specify where he got the information from. "Something fell between the cracks between then and now to allow this to happen. We need to shake out all the facts. We need to figure out what happened. Where the holes and we need to make sure it … [Read more...] about Salvador Ramos arrested 4 years ago for planning attack at 18—Texas Rep.

Meghan Markle "did what she felt she had to" in traveling to Uvalde, Texas following the shooting at Robb Elementary School which saw 19 children and two teachers lose their lives, a royal commentator told Newsweek . Royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams said that the duchess' "expression of personal sorrow" was marked with the "paying of respects" on Thursday when she was photographed laying flowers at a memorial to the victims outside the Uvalde County Courthouse. On May 24, 18-year-old gunman Salvador Ramos opened fire in Robb Elementary School, killing 2 1 before police officers intervened and shot and killed Ramos. The attack is the deadliest school shooting in the U.S. since a shooter at Sandy Hook Elementary School killed 26 people in Newtown, Connecticut in 2012.

A spokesperson for Meghan told Newsweek that the duchess made her visit to Uvalde in a personal capacity … [Read more...] about Meghan “did what she felt she had to” in Uvalde despite “cynical” critics

In the wake of the latest mass shooting to occur in the U.S., the Ulvade massacre, where a gunman killed 19 children and two teachers , people are calling for action on gun legislation in the country. People are also gearing up to protest the NRA 's annual Institute for Legislative Action Leadership Forum , which is taking place just a few days after the Texas Robb Elementary School Shooting. The event has sparked significant anger, particularly as one of the most common and celebrated firearms in the America, the AR-15 , was used by the Uvalde shooter.
