Taco Toss

Warren Strickland of Fairbanks, Alaska may not be doing business at Taco Bell again for at least a year. He got into an argument with the manager of a local outlet claiming that the double decker taco contained spit.  When his oratorial skills were not carrying the day for Warren, he threw the taco at the manager’s face. This resulted in charges of disorderly conduct and a rule of 1 conviction and sentencing, namely one day in jail, one year of probation and $100 fine.   

I wonder how the judge arrived at this sentence, especially the jail part.  Will it set a pattern for similar offences elsewhere in the future?  To wit:

 

Throwing a Wendy’s baked potato at a manager

 

3 days in jail

 

 

---add sour cream on it

 

7 days in jail

 

 

Throwing KFC wings at manager or assistant manager

 

5 days in jail

 

 

---throwing entire bucket 

 

30 days in jail

 

 

Tossing cup of coffee at Starbucks staff

 

10 days in jail

 

 

---tall

 

10 days in jail

 

 

---grande

 

12 days in jail

 

 

---venti

 

14 days in jail

 

 

---With vanilla syrup

 

no extra charge

 

I believe Warren Strickland’s sentence would have been a more effective deterrent if the judge would have ordered that for his one meal in jail that day, prison officials serve him a Taco Bell double decker. No Jo quiero Taco Bell.
