Ferguson photo op

just before we arrested him. (AP Photo/WaPo/Wesley Lowery).

The golden arches, symbol of our largest fast food industry partner, are believed to have been inspired by the St. Louis landmark. During the recent protests in the St Louis suburb of Ferguson, staff could often be found eating at McDonalds.

The other day, two journalists from the Washington Post and Huffington Post came into our McDonalds.

When the reporters pointed their video cameras at us, we had them arrested and roughed up a bit.

To commemorate arresting 2 journalists in a #Ferguson McDonalds, had staff photo taken in front of golden arches: pic.twitter.com/KAqkfmlh9V
