There’s a non-zero chance that this representative of the Prince of Peace will claim he was trying to anoint the victim’s head with oil.
There are soooo many better ways to respond to a loved one being disrespected. This one does no one any good. I do sympathize with being infuriated by a loved one’s mistreatment. Been there, done that. Responding with violence is not productive. This is the lesson to be sermonized out of this.
Seems like this guy went with What Would Jesus Not Do?
So exactly was is meant by disrespected?
Does it matter? Is there any degree that would have justified this action? I think not.
Pastor? Seems more like a friar.
He was trying to do a baptism by fryer.
Is there a reason Rob kept calling the restaurant the one from “Coming to America”? (instead of McDonald’s, which is the restaurant involved)
Excuse me, but you’re misbranding the fine restaurant known as McDowell’s.
Not that it’s at all relevant, but the restaurant in Coming to America is called McDowell’s.
Dammit, @gracchus:
Hey, we’re both fans. Have a Big Mick to go with that Coke (or would it be an RC Cola?).
Jesus. That’s right out of some action movie full of the ultraviolence…
Yep.

He definitely seems like the type of person you’d want preaching to you. /s
Given the minimum temperature for frying is about 170c how is it only assault and not attempted murder?
<mutters something about the “Golden Rule”>
“Jesus wants to know do you want fries with that?!”
