So, if you're caught doing something despicable, the fall back position is: It was just a joke.

Oh yeah, I'm fooled...
You don't seem fooled.

If it were really a joke they would have done it, seen the expression on their faces, and then in the next instant said that they were just kidding and offered them their meal for free. However, that didn't happen.
That's pretty much what happened at the Arby's except for the free part. The officer refused because she was concerned about what might happen to her order

Why this is national news is beyond me. The officer should have complained to corporate office and have them handle it. Going to the media over not being served just shows you have some agenda.

winters,

Please, correct me if I'm wrong.

Are you suggesting the police have some sort of nefarious agenda?

Yep, they've got an agenda alright. Exposing crappy service and horrid management.

I agree with mojo. Some people don't like onions too, but I like a patty melt whenever I'm travelling and see a WB.

I would have never figured it was a matter of opinion. Whataburger has some of the nastiest eating places. They may be a shade above McDonald's in fast food but that is about it.

I get that you won't eat there. But do you get that being that derogatory about a place that people have said they like could be considered insulting?

2015 the year that everyone was offended by everything.
We have come the place that we are insulted that we all don't agree that WB isn't the best place. It's not derogatory not to like WB. Its ok not to like WB, it's also ok to voice that opinion.

I agree with Rich.

I love WB burgers and fries, but if you care to criticize WB, I don't mind in the least...
