A viral video of a Popeyes employee body-slamming a woman outside a Tennessee restaurant has resulted in an arrest on Friday.
Deriance Ra’Shaiel Hughes, 29, was charged with felony aggravated assault for the incident that stemmed from an altercation between the woman and employees inside the fast-food location.
A lawyer representing the victim, Debra Staggs, 55, said she was trying to get a refund after reportedly being double-charged for food, reports local TV station WSMV.

Why is it always black on black. Is there some way to teach them how civilized people act?

This chicken sandwich ruckus is going to rival the great potato chip crisis of 1987.

Stopped at a McD's somewhere in central Florida. Ordering black coffee from the young woman at the counter, along with the joe, she dealt back a handful of attitude. KAG2020

For some reason I have had bad experiences at Popeyes. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve ordered 5 piece chicken strips with two biscuits to go. I get home and there are four strips and one biscuit. It’s happened more than once. Now I open the box and make a count before I leave. Every time I’m watching who’s filling the order and not being racist at all in any way, it was teenage black girls reading the ticket and counting out the items in the box. Just sayin.

Worse than black on black is that Deriance is a man who horrifically attacked a woman. But how much you want to bet Deriance grew up without a father - or a father who respected his Deriance's mother? Or maybe just the name as DVC suggests.

Here in San Diego a few days ago, a female Hispanic employee was shot and killed (2 others shot but survived) by a black man who had his counterfeit $100 bill refused at a Church’s Chicken restaurant down near the US/Mexican border. My best advice is to stay away from chicken shops...geez. Unbelievable!

Wouldn't it be great if these people had some positive role models in their lives? Somewhere. Someone. Somehow.

Let me see … I have a piece of chicken. I have a pan. I have a panorama of herbs and spices. I suspect there's some bread around here … yep, there it is. Nobody's lining up ARMED at my place for a chicken sandwich but it'll beat Popeyes by a country mile. Don't you "JOURNALISTS" have something better to do ?

The only stories that I read coming out of Chick-Fil-A are about an employee saving a choking victim, rescuing puppies from a burning car, or being banned from a school function for an "unacceptable" social/religious view.

I just drove past one in the Tierrasanta area (and a nice area) of San Diego.19 cars lined up for drive-thru. Did a double-take, thinking it was In-n-Out.

#9: They do have positive role models all around them, if not at home. There are hundreds of good people to emulate, both black & white but then they wouldn't be 'down for the struggle'. We've all heard of black kids who are ridiculed for bringing schoolbooks home and acting 'white'.

#8, I have seen the story reported several times on NBC news and they still haven't stated the race of the shooter. KUSI had an eyewitness to the shooting who stated the race immediately. Plus the news guy repeated it when he gave the suspect description.

The lady who was body slammed and injured is either going to get free Popeye’s chicken sandwiches for herself and her family for life or is going to end up owning that Popeyes Restaurant.

I absolutely love Popeye's chicken. It is slightly better than Church's and far better than KFC. There are only two in my part of the state, so I dont get there often. The one I go to most is in a good neighborhood so not many Amish.
Last time I went in the clerk announced they didnt have any chicken sandwiches. She looked like she was about to duck behind the counter. When I told her I didnt want one, she appeared relieved and got a lot smilier. Weird.

"These actions run completely contrary to our standards..." - Popeyes Spokesman
Unfortunately these actions are completely in line with other standards, a built in contradiction, huh?
I first ran across Popeye's in Houston, early 80's. Delicious. I then moved to St.Louis and, oh boy, Popeye's. They had the sourest, most unfriendly help I'd ever run across. By far. They would stand at the counter sideways so as not to look at you, each and every one scowling. It didn't take too many more visits to swear off Popeye's forever. Not sure how much of my experience had to do with St.Louis being the most racially divisive city I'd lived in.

Over the last couple of years my wife and I have often noticed poor and/or incompetent service in restaurants, stores and such. We refer to it as "the pains of full employment," and it's exactly so. Many of these employees are marginal.
For most of them, one hopes (and expects) they'll learn the ropes.

I had the impression from the video that the perp was a woman, with that huge floppy mop of hair. So hard to tell, and the names....no clues there.
I expect that the Popeye's insurance company will be unhappy about the selection of Deriance as an employee. Such hair trigger violence, unreal.

“Welcome to Popeye’s. Our food is to die for.” That woman is about to get a super-size refund.

So glad I don't eat chicken or burgers and seldom go to a fast food restaurant. Not that it's in the news, but FL has an epidemic of Hep A. Just saying.

UPDATE:
The article has been added to:
"Deriance Ra’Shaiel Hughes, 29, was charged with felony aggravated assault."
He was immediately fired by the Popeyes frachisee.
"The woman has six cracked ribs, nine fractures and a broken knee. "

My lunch today was served to me by the nicest, most pleasant young people I could ever hope to meet.
Such a pleasant experience, and a wonderful chicken sandwich....... at the Chick-Fil-A on Hwy 49 in Gulfport, Mississippi.

I perceived this issue with Popeye's decades ago, never went into one for the obvious reason that I was always "out of uniform".
Angry black women, with a hair trigger to physical violence at the slightest issue, real or imagined.
Deriance Ra’Shaiel Hughes, pretty much says it all. You wonder how much of her going through life angry is because of her name. No doubt her name gets a lot of eye rolls and laughs, and has for her whole life.
