So do we all agree that McDonalds are a bunch of retarded liars?

And say: So what? You’re suggesting that if a man tries to provoke confrontation, it’s acceptable to assault him and damage his personal belongings? Glad I’m not your neighbor or something lol. Unless… *looks at neighbors house in fear* >.>

And no it is not HUD. The camera is replacing his eyeball that was blind in that eye. The camera is a part of his body. Although not connected to his brain.

I do believe that he was assaulted, but if you read up on this guy you find that he has a history of provoking confrontation in order to garner publicity. He doesn’t even have any visual impairment, it’s just a HUD. You should read the talk page on his wikipedia article.

Especially considering I just called the same toll free number he claims was a garbled message a couple of weeks ago and had no problem speaking with an agent. I even received call backs from both the regional office and franchisee. FYI: I got this information from his blog:
