This video really pissed me off. I’m so glad this young lady was able to defend herself. I’m sick and tired of punks abusing women‼️That loser is lucky the whole store didn’t stomp his b*tch ass out ‼️ He had no business laying his damn hands on her‼️ Just imagine this happened to your family member. You would be livid. Do you think employers like McDonald’s do enough to help protect their workers??.Do you blame her for her reaction? What would you have done???. READ STORY BELOW 👇. STORY: #YasmineJames, 20, started working at the #McDonalds in #StPetersburg three months ago. On Monday, a #customer got aggressive when she informed him he had to ask for a straw. After cursing and yelling at her, she said he leaned over the counter and attacked her. "He grabbed me and that really scared me because I didn't know if he had a gun or a knife or what," #James said. "When he grabbed me, my main thing was to get him off of me the best way I knew. Just let me go." James, who learned how to box as a teenager, fought back as fellow coworkers stood by idly as seen in the viral video.  She said her manager didn't come to her aid, but doesn't fault them for it. She claimed they've never received proper training to deal with unruly customers. She is now calling on McDonald's to improve employee safety and train managers to de-escalate similar situations. "I don't want it to be blamed on him, I want to blame it on the way he was trained 'cause he is not a bad manager," she said. "It's just that when that thing happened it's like he didn't know what to do." #DanielTaylor, 40, was arrested in connection with the attack. He was charged with two counts of simple battery. In a statement issued #Thursday, McDonald's said its "highest priority" is the #safety of everyone in the #restaurant. It added: "We firmly stand with our employees everywhere, including our employees at this restaurant who were involved in this incident." For now, James is taking a leave of absence because she's not comfortable with being "paranoid" and "scared" at her job. via cbsnews (at McDonald's USA) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsUYtbWAiJW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=p3u0jql0bdw2

Reposted from @conscious_couture - It’s infuriating hearing and watching this attack on our sister Yasmine James. Because the men around her were so weak she literally had to handle the situation all by herself from beginning to end ———————————— We can’t keep allowing our sisters to defend themselves. Moving forward we we have to intervene wether we know the victim or not. No more standing around regardless who the attacker is. If we are gonna talk like a nation we have to start acting and protecting each other like nation. #YasmineJames #ConsciousCouture - #regrann https://www.instagram.com/p/BsQxjRoAwB1LMl9CG2zy003HKH53Hn_P_OkKEk0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1h4ycdpd2l10a

#Repost @blavity ・・・ An irate McDonald's customer, #DanielTaylor, was caught viciously attacking #YasmineJames employee over a straw. Taylor may face up to one year in jail or probation and a $1,000 fine, but Yasmine doesn't think that’s enough, and rightfully so ✊🏾 Watch the video to see what Yasmine had to say about the attack and tag a friend to share below 👇🏾 #NoMore #Violence #ProtectBlackWomen (at Elmont, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsQcjQqnH-L/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1dhh68k6gliwx

Watching the video of #yasminejames (McDonald’s employee that was assisted) I burst into tears and I shocked myself because I didn’t realize why I was upset. But then it hit me that seeing this woman treated like a dog and receiving no help from her male coworkers (both black and white) brings me to the triggering realization that could have easily been me, my mom, my sister, my cousin, my aunt, my niece and so many other black women. We feel consistently unprotected and devalued. It’s traumatic and tiring. 😞😔😑 https://www.instagram.com/p/BsNtfGXhwWo/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=l9963q6te8ya
