Mother's Day the Toledo Way!!!

----Being a native I'm surprised this story actually got local publicity. When I worked in restaurants up there cops got called to restaurants all the time over crap like this and none of that ever got publicized. Another story said it stemmed from two mothers having an argument over a crying baby.

I'm surprised nobody has an opinion on this! All right I'll bite....

Seems to me like this was pretty much a case of the restaurant (or business for that matter) sucking up to the SC by not doing anything about their behavior. If the store would have acted by removing the SC with the screaming child then this likely would NOT have happened. As a result, everybody lost: the women that got beat up, the five that ended up in jail, and the restaurant itself lost a lot of money since it was first to close down until later in the evening as police had to move to restore order. I think management should learn this as a lesson to what COULD happen in their place of business when you let SC's go wild.

I just saw it. I'm totally about it.

A misdemeanor? They stomped a 70 year old granny on Mother's Day and they got charged with misdemeanors? WTF???

Funny thing is that I actually thought about eating at that particular location when I was up there since it's down the street from my mother's because I've been to the location down here and they have really good home-cooked food. But after hearing about that I think I'll stay clear of that place next time I'm up in that area.
