I think you and the deer killing machine may have been down there. Read....
quote:Dead Deer Found in McDonald's Restroom a Mystery for Police Associated Press EL DORADO, Ark.
McDonald's employees found a dead deer under a sink in the men’s bathroom, and police were trying to figure out how it got there.
"I am taking this matter very seriously," owner Larry Smith said Tuesday. "The safety of my restaurant, employees and customers are among my highest priorities and will never be compromised."
Manager Jeff Moss told police he couldn't figure out how someone could get the deer inside the restaurant without someone noticing. He also said surveillance video cameras, which are aimed at the cash registers, didn't record the incident.
The police report did not state the deer's size or how it was killed and moved into the McDonald's. Employees reported finding the doe Sunday morning.
"Whoever brought it in probably did it while the workers were there," said police Capt. Carl Blake. "There were no signs of forced entry."
The Arkansas Game and Fish Commission is also investigating.
"A dead deer on the side of the road isn't an unusual sight, especially at this time of year," said commission spokesman Len Pitcock. "We think somebody could have hit the deer and then somebody decided to play a prank."

Well, now I know how the burgers are made... time for me to start having lunch at the Sushi place.

Well, this begs the question: how did Jeff manage to hit the deer with his Jeep if the deer was washing his antlers in the bathroom? Posted by Malnurtured Snay (Member # 411) on :
They found it?! Damn.

I notice they're far more concerned with theft among their own employees than anyone doing anything illegal like dumping deer or spreading anthrax or whatever on their premises.

They never said how the deer died, could it have eaten the food and then crawlled under the sink to die.
Posted by Malnurtured Snay (Member # 411) on :
Well, they could be concerned with people robbing the store ... why would anyone rob the bathroom?

Just another mysterious Arkansas-related death... Posted by Malnurtured Snay (Member # 411) on :
I'll assume that that is not criticism of a certain political figure you said you wouldn't criticize, because you're never made a policy decision other then what color tie to wear?

Not at all. Hundreds of people and animals die every year under odd circumstances. Statistics dictate it is inevitable that several of them will have something to do, even obliquely, with any given state.
It's also an unusual McDonalds-related death, and bathroom-related death, among other things.

Just keeping you honest ...

I've felt like doing that very thing at McDonalds before, and I stopped going in for food. I do like their coffee.
Here in WV, it is illeagal to shot a deer from your car. The State Police put out fake deer, setting them up next to a interstate highway, then wait till someone shoots at it. They arrest 100 or so people every year with this ploy. It's not unusual to see deer along the highway here. A buddy of mine hit one in the capitol city a couple of years ago. But the local news highlights the fake deer every year, and people are still stupid enough to shoot out of there windows, along a major highway.
My boy Monty was driving home one night, after a couple of beers and listening to live music. The deer had come off of the mountain and made its way down to the river. It had to climb up the river bank about 60 yards to get to the road, then made the fatal error of jumping over the burm on the side of the road. Monty's timing was perfect. The deer landed against the side of Monty's car, denting the left side fender and door. Did the deer want to die, or was it extracing revenge for the previous kills Monty had made with his cars. I believe he has hit another since moving back to South Carolinia, bring his total to either four or five.

Wow. 500 more, and he'll be challenging me
That was a joke, I've only killed one deer ... actually, I didn't even kill it. I hit it, broke its legs, and the police put it out of its misery with a bullet.

A friend of mine almost hit a deer last night. I didn't see it, though. My eye was too busy slamming into the back of his headrest.
BTW, wouldn't putting a fake deer on the road and arresting people who shoot it be entrapment? Not to mention that it wouldn't be illegal. You wouldn't be shooting a deer from your car. You'd be shooting a deer statue from your car. Or is there a law against that, too?
Posted by Malnurtured Snay (Member # 411) on :
There's probably a law about shooting anything from your car. And if you thought it was a real deer -- and not a statue -- your defense would fall flat on its face.

That's a buncha bullshit. I've seen his car. Fucker's got his entire driver-side hood full up with "kill markings" a la pilots. Antlers & small rodentia silhouettes all OVAH the place, I tell ya...

Illegally discharging a firearm, or something of that nature. Anybody stupid enough to stop by the side of a major highway, pulling a rifle off the rack behind the seat, and cutting lose out the window, should be arrested for stupidity, and any guns they own taken away. Makes the rest of us look bad.

So, how is shooting out the window different from opening the door, stepping out, and shooting from beside the window?
Posted by Malnurtured Snay (Member # 411) on :
Rolling down the window and shooting from the driver seat?
Posted by Omega (Member # 91) on :
That would seem to necessitate either sticking your entire torso out the window and aiming across the top of your car, or shooting across the oncoming traffic. Either way, DUMB.
Posted by Malnurtured Snay (Member # 411) on :
Not if you're parked on the side of the road, and shooting across the passenger seat through the open passenger window. Then you're not shooting across traffic, are you?

It was in the newspaper about 4 years ago that a local man was driving down a road that is alongside a large open expanse of bushes and grass. When the driver saw a dear, he pulled out an AK-47 and began firing at the deer through his passenger window while still driving down the street. As far as I remember the report said they hadn't caught him or anything.
