Over the weekend, we saw yet another violent mob of “teens” taking over a local Washington, D.C. Chipotle restaurant and wreaking havoc, throwing toddler chairs, wrecking furniture, and forcing customers to take refuge in a corner of the dining area. What’s interesting is how similarly dressed all these goblins were, making one wonder just how spontaneous this really was.
On Monday, the United States Attorney for the District of Columbia, Jeanine Pirro, had some angry words for the thugs – and their parents.
The X post reads:
NEW: U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro draws a hard line against teen lawlessness following a violent brawl at a DC Chipotle:
“It was a takeover of a restaurant by individuals who felt they could get away with it. Well, they’re not going to get away with it.”
“The message that lawlessness runs the streets is over.”
“The city belongs to law-abiding residents, not roaming mobs looking to make a name for themselves, contribute to the chaos and violence, or gain social media attention.”
“These are not kids being kids.”
Here’s what she said:
These are not harmless gatherings. They are violent, and they are disruptive. And you can see from what happened at Chipotle this past weekend. It was not just violence occurring between two individuals. It was simply the destruction of property. It was a takeover of a restaurant by individuals who felt they could get away with it. Well, they’re not going to get away with it, and I’m going to tell you how in a couple of minutes. But this terrorizing is going to end. And the message that lawlessness runs the streets is over.
The city belongs to law-abiding residents, not roaming mobs looking to make a name for themselves, or to contribute to the chaos and violence, and to get social media attention.
That’s the way it should be!
