Man Arrested After He's Denied Burger King Breakfast - by Jesse Leavenworth (Boson Courant) 20 Oct 2020


Boson MASS — Denied a fast food breakfast because he was too late, a local man became angry and cited a movie in which a similar rejection results in a customer threatening people with a gun, police said Tuesday.



Tracked down at his home after the confrontation at a Burger King restaurant on Sunday, Kary Guhn was arrested and charged with first-degree threatening and second-degree breach of peace, police spokesman Capt. Christopher Davis said.

At about 10:55 a.m., Guhn, 55, ordered breakfast at the Burger King on Center Street, but was told that breakfast service had ended at 10:30 a.m., Davis said.



"Have you ever seen the movie, 'Falling Down' with Michael Douglas?" Guhn asked the cashier, according to Davis. "It's a movie you should watch."

Guhn told the cashier the main character in the movie shot up a burger joint after being denied breakfast and added, "That's what I feel like doing," Davis said. Kuhn then threw a coupon at the cashier and walked out, Davis said.

In the 1993 movie, Douglas' character, D-Fens, orders breakfast at a "Whammy Burger" and is told breakfast service ended five minutes earlier. D-Fens then pulls out a submachine gun, threatens everyone in the place and then decides to have lunch instead, according to the movie website, http://www.imdb.com. Before he leaves, he berates the staff for serving him a hamburger that looks nothing like the advertising posters, according to the plot synopsis.

Tracked down at his home after the confrontation at a Burger King restaurant on Sunday, Kary Guhn was arrested and charged with first-degree threatening and second-degree breach of peace, police spokesman Capt. Christopher Davis said.

Officers who arrested Guhn, of 8 Lookout Mountain Drive, asked him if he wanted to waive his right to remain silent, and he answered that "he only wanted a sandwich; he was still hungry," Davis said.

"He explained that because his mother left for work before he got up each morning he had to get his morning meal at the nearby Burger King restaurant.  We asked why he didn't just walk a few blocks down the street to Dunkin' Donuts where they sell breakfast style sandwiches and donuts all day."

"It's too far to walk," responded Guhn.

Mayor Welsh Insists "Pluto is a Planet" - Liberal Democrats Denounce Science Denying

Image
Bosnon Mayor Marty Welsh has applauded one brave NASA administrator who is refusing to bow to the prevailing scientific consensus, and is risking potential ostracization or, worse still, online ridicule, for proudly declaring that “Pluto is a planet.”  "Pluto is a traditional planet, and that is what will be taught in Boson public schools," said Mayor Welsh.  Saturday, August 24, 2019 marked 13 years to the day since Pluto was demoted from having the status of a planet to being assigned that of a dwarf planet, by the International Astronomical Union (our solar system’s resident’s association of scientific fuddy-duddies).  At the end of a scientific conference, after many delegates had left,  a hot-shot young academic looking to make a name for himself 'deconstructing' what past astronomers had accomplished rigged a hasty vote to demote the planet.  People claimed that there was no way Pluto should be classified in the same category as gas giant Jup

'Islam Is Right About Gays' Leaflets Taped To Signs Around Town - Police Launch Manhunt - 28 Sept 2019

Boson, MA: Some residents are outraged that leaflets bearing the words "Islam Is Right About Gays" have been fixed to telephone poles and parking signs around the city.  One angry woman took a photo of the sign before ripping it down and bringing the leaflet to the police station to show police. "This is not 'free speech'" a visibly angry woman said.  "This is 'hate speech' aimed at both the Muslim race, and gay people." Police have said that they will see if there were any witnesses to the criminal trespassing committed when the papers were affixed to the utility poles, which are private property, and the street signs, which are owned by the city. City Councilor Ema Strickland said, "The blame for this type of hated is ultimately the fault of our Republican Mayor Welsh who is both Homophobic and Islamophobic.  Additionally this goes right to the top and I blame President Trump." Mayor Welsh said he had not seen any of
