Man sues fast-food chain over lack of hash browns, says his civil rights were violated

A North Carolina man has filed a lawsuit against the fast-food chain Hardee's, claiming one of its locations violated his civil rights when employees did not give him enough hash browns.

The Fayetteville Observer reported Tommy Martin, who is black, said the May 2018 incident left him upset and gave him cibophobia, a fear of food.

Martin says the chain's Belmont location withheld some of its Hash Rounds when he ordered them as a side with his breakfast platter.

The paper reported a typical order of the side contains 12 Hash Rounds. Martin claims he only received two in his order.

Martin told the Charlotte Observer he believes the incident was racially motivated because he was the only nonwhite person inside the restaurant.

Northwest Woodsman: Predictable behavior raises its ugly head again. They will do or say anything to scam a free meal and I would guess that was his plan. Instead of accommodating him, his meal should have been taken back and he should have physically been removed. Any time you show that you are willing to accommodate them they interpret it as weakness and their demands grow larger and more brazen. I think of it as the “Obama syndrome”.

For all of you keyboard know-it-alls, the eleventeenth amendment guarantees the right to a standard portion size when patronizing fast-food resturants. /sarc

I'm betting he hid or ate the hash rounds and then tried to claim they did not give him enough just so he could raise hell. They fill orders by which is first, not by the color of the customer. Damn idiot.
