I have a teen. This guy was threatening these girls and out of control. Him trying to break into the back room and throwing things is insane. I DO NOT feel sorry for this person. If he got back in that room, I have no doubt he would have assaulted one of those girls.

I wonder if you are a parent? I would bet you don’t have a teen girl.

And to people who think the kids went through trauma because of this incident, you need a thicker hide then. The girls defended themselves quite well and they did not experience trauma.

What makes you say that "obviously someone made a mistake" just because the smoothie shop girl isn't prepared to swear 100 percent? As has been said a million times, an allergy parent should *never* give their child anything made in a fast food joint where they use peanut butter and nuts all the time. The mistake was on the dad, and maybe even on the 17-year-old child, who surely should know how to protect himself by now. One of my child's best friends has a peanut allergy and he was advocating for himself back when he was 4 years old.

Also, if you think the girls should toughen up and get a thicker skin if a customer is angry at their possible error, then that goes triple for the a-hole who lost his job because of his mistakes.

I meant the girls defended themselves well and did not look like they suffered trauma by this. The people saying that the girls experienced trauma are snowflakes.

The girls also did not de-escalate. They were rude and arrogant with a don't care attitude, when a customer who was angry that their son may have been killed as a result of their negligence, was confronting them. A "sorry sir, you need to talk to management" was the response needed there.

The way this guy went about it was all wrong. He needed to save that smoothie, get it tested and sue that establishment. Instead he went back from the hospital and vented out his anger and now is out of a job. His kid is 17 and the dad is in the news for this. I feel bad for the kid and also don't think someone needs their life ruined over a bad judgement. Those kids were no saints and they were sassy and not taking responsibility for their mistake and apologizing, further goading this man.

How would you all feel if someone who almost caused your son to die due to their negligence acted like it was no big deal? He was pushed over the edge and then his racist side came out and now he has no job.

And I am a parent of a girl. If my DD made a mistake that could have caused someone's life, I would hope I raised her well enough to show some concern and not be flippant about it.

The mistake is going to a place like this with a severe, potentially life threatening allergy. You could ruin a child's life and also the life of the worker who is not qualified to understand or manage a severe nut allergy.

My sister's kid had this type of allergy and he was taught early on how to manage it and protect himself from accidentally getting any nuts.

Sorry but the negligence here is on the family who took a severely allergic kid to a place like that where nuts are regularly on the menu. And then putting your kid's safety in the hands of an untrained teen smoothie maker? Do not do that with life threatening nut allergies.

I mean seriously, are you related to him? This is such a weird take on the video. He came in like a raging lunatic. Nothing the minor children behind the counter said was going to make him calm down. He has at least one teen, he knows those kids are filming/taking pics of everything.

Plenty of us have kids with allergies and know the smoothie places are notorious for cross contamination. Restaurants based on blenders are no good for allergies. This was his mistake which HE needs to take responsibility for, not the girls behind the counter.

GMAFB. You want teens in a smoothie shop to act like they have degrees in Conflict Resolution? Do you have or know any teens? Of course they got angry when he stormed in and immediately when postal on them. I'm sure they would have handled it very differently if he came in and said "I need to speak to the manager", not throwing f bombs all over the place.

They are not responsible for his behavior. Say it again and internalize it. He made the decision to come into the store screaming and making no effort to have a rational discussion. Stop trying to make excuses for him as if he isn't a grown-a$s adult who is responsible for his own behavior. I am HAPPY he got humiliated and fired. He went ape-shizz on a bunch of minimum wage GIRLS and wound up showing world he is an out of control bully.

I do feel bad for his child and I am happy that he has recovered.

So you raised your kid to let someone rage at her when she didn't actually make a mistake? They made the smoothie as per the request: no peanut butter. Nobody ever mentioned an allergy to them.

I agree with everything except that the GIRLS part isn't relevant. How would it be any better if he raged at young boys? We can't raise our daughters to be equals and then in the same breath tell them they should expect to be treated differently because they are girls/women. We are either equal or we're not.

You need to read, watch unedited clips, and use non-biased sources. One cropped clip from a leaning source doesn't give the whole picture. Stop making lies about literate people being related, married, or friends of his. By IP address, this is a DMV site with DMV posters. Nobody is saying he was thinking with his brain and not his fear/emotion and he clearly made a mistake. It is infuriating that the world's most escalating and incompetent employees are being called "heros". Also victims, yes, but I don't see you putting your hard-earned money into hiring them.

When a grown man is getting physical, yes, teen girls are more vulnerable than teen boys of the same age. You can't discount the physical aspect when he is violently trying to break into the back of the store. I worked in various storefronts like that as a teenage girl and still can remember how terrifying it was when I was alone and some creeper would come in and start hassling me.

LOL, did we watch the same video? You are calling the smoothie employees "the most escalating and incompetent employees"?? It's so interesting to me that you are furious with them.
