One of My Favorite DailyPUMA ARTICLES of 2009 Reprinted Below.

Remember the woman who called 911 because McDonalds STOLE her money and WOULD NOT give it back?

McDonalds had run out of Chicken McNuggets and their solution was to give her a substitute meal of equal or greater value, but under no circumstances was Latreasa Davis or any other customer ever to get a refund. DailyPUMA wrote about it last month... (Latreasa Davis is a Hero, not a Zero.)

Latreasa Davis had the guts to demand her actual money back from a McDonalds that was planning on giving her a substitute meal she did not want. Davis was ridiculed by the media for calling 911 when in reality she was a heroic consumer advocate who wouldn't sit at the back of the bus after McDonald's refused to refund her money for a meal they could not produce. Davis's reward was to be charged with a crime for calling 911 while the media laughed at her.

It was not newsworthy for the media to report McDonalds stealing customers money and then giving the customer whatever McDonald's wanted to give, but it was newsworthy to taunt and ridicule Latreasa Davis for standing up and saying, "enough is enough".

This weeks female media victim is Nicole Word.

Nicole Word, the Poster Woman for Repeat Domestic Abuse who so far had survived numerous alleged stalking attacks by her ex boyfriend, has now been dropped from her own story so the media could glorify the judge "who saved her". Not only did Nicole Word have to survive repeated alleged threats against her life from her estranged "boyfriend", but just as she was testifying against him, IN COURT, he attacked her AGAIN! Click Above to see the RARE news story version in which Nicole Word is actually featured in the story along with the heroic judge. Or click here to see the article and the video. Sadly, the only reason this story even made the headlines was because of the video inside the courtroom.

There would have never even been a story about the repeated domestic abuse attempts if the abuser hadn't then done it in court! So you would think that Nicole Word would be featured front and center. Nope. Instead, the story makes news across the county because of the "heroic" actions of the Broward County Judge, Ian Richards.

My question is, who is the real hero in this situation? Is Judge Ian Richards the hero for stopping an assault in his own courtroom, or is it Nicole Word, who fended off several alleged death threats and had to face her tormetor in court and then survive a beating by him in court? According to the media, the judge is the hero, and Nicole is just a footnote. I base this conclusion on the following. I did several google searches. It was not until I put Nicole Word's actual name in that was I able to find a video that showed her being interviewed.

In all other cases, the videos were all about The judges heroics in jumping over his own bench to save the female in distress from an attacker. GASP. KCAL in Los Angeles ran the original video seen above, but has not archived this story in their own internet video library so after it ran on the air, it basically disappeared forever.

To glorify the judge without knowing about or hearing from the victim is just wrong. If you didn't already know the name of the female victim, odds are you wouldn't find the very scant coverage that included her own words about what happened. The media has gotten adept at being wrong when it comes to how they view Women who are champions.

Ridiculing Latreasa Davis, Ignoring Nicole Word, Oblivious to unfair voting schemes that went against Hillary Clinton, or wrongfully championing Caroline Kennedy for a legislative position without her ever having even won a popular vote in her adult life, are all signs that our media is not able to repeat an original story without dumbing it down, especially when it involves courageous women in the news.

Tiger Woods Elin Nordegren, is the news coverage losing sight of possible Domestic Violence by Elin?

Is Elin Nordegren calling too many of the shots in the face of Tiger Wood's lie? (Ok, I admit it, there is a pun or two in that sentence, what can I say?)

I feel like I am watching a magicians trick unfold in front of my eyes. Elin Nordegren is doing this, she's doing that, she's going here, she's going there, and yet, apparently, she nor Tiger have admitted to the possibility of domestic violence the night Tiger's Car Hooked up with a tree and Tiger appeared to have facial injuries inconsistent with the car accident.

Why is Elin allowed to leave the United States without being questioned as to what happened? How can she expect to have her day in divorce court if she never is properly questioned about happened between her and Tiger? Was Elin not considered a suspect? The longer the police wait to question her, the more her story might possibly be a concoction of what she thinks happened instead of what may have actually happened.

While the world probably sympathizes with Elin, the law was not so forgiving when a presumably poorer, african american woman named Latreasa Davis called 911 because McDonalds had stolen her lunch money and would not give it back.

Latreasa Davis was arrested for "misusing" 911 even though what McDonalds did by holding her money was the equivalent of a theft in progress. Yet Elin, who may have committed domestic violence, is free to flit about flaunting her upscale status every step of the way.

If one's choice was to cooperate with the police and possibly receive a charge of domestic abuse, or, divorce Tiger Woods and receive a huge chunk of money, your kids, worldwide public sympathy, plus no domestic violence charge, which would you choose?

Just who is Elin protecting her kids from? She certainly is not protecting them from a possibly enraged, club wielding elitist deranged person who may have attacked an unarmed man. Why is Elin able to avoid answering questions from the police about what happened the night Tiger Woods was found woozy and bleeding from the face?

Just as importantly, is Tiger Woods doing right by his kids by leaving them with a woman who might have picked up a golf club and struck or threatened to strike him with it?

It is not like Elin put Tiger Woods through college to become a doctor and then Doctor Woods divorces her for a younger woman. There are many women who have not been accused of possible assault against their spouse even after having been used in a far worse way than Elin has allegedly been "used" by Tiger Woods.

Elin cannot and should not be allowed to hide under all that money when everyday people would have been questioned by the police.

Elin leads a privileged life and if she should could not control her anger over personal events involving her husband, how can the rest of us be expected to hold our anger when we don't have a billion dollars in the bank as a back up plan? Elin deserves LESS sympathy, not more, than a woman who suddenly gets dumped after helping pay for her husband's education or business career.

There is another issue here to consider, the point / counter point issue. If Tiger Woods was having unprotected sex with others and then swapping kisses with Elin, can that be considered some form of assault? Spitting is considered Assault. If a person spits at another person and the spit makes contact, the spitter can be charged with assault.

Can swapping fluids with one's wife after not even using a condom with a stranger be considered a form of assault by Tiger Woods on Elin? Should Elin ever need to defend herself against domestic abuse charges, could reacting to "being spit upon" be Elin's defense plea as to why she may have lost her self control and possibly assaulted Tiger Woods?

After being assaulted by another person, the recipient may choose to hit the assailant back as a form of defense. Is it a legal defense for Elin to see Tiger and his unprotected sex with others as a form of spitting/assault that led Elin, upon discovering what was going on, to respond to Tiger's prior actions in self defense?

Why are the police allowing Elin to flee the United States without answering to questions about possible domestic violence, and what kind of example is this setting to men and women who are not rich like Tiger and Elin?

Domestic Abuse is out of Control. Nicole Word is Attacked in Court by Ex-boyfriend during her testimony. Judge Stops Attack, Media Idolizes Judge.

Latreasa Davis is a Hero, Not a Zero, and should not have been arrested for calling 911 about McDonald's Chicken McNugget Bait and Switch Agenda.

The police arrested Latreasa Davis for "wrongfully" calling 911 when her Chicken McNuggets order was substituted to whatever McDonald's felt like giving her. "You PAID for a garden salad, well, try our super nachos al grande instead, we INSIST".

You decide to purchase the purple prius with gold plated hubcaps, "Well we're going to exchange your purchase "request" into a hummer because it is of equal or greater value, and we have a bunch more of them in stock anyways". That's fair, right?

The McDonalds in this particular situation offered meal substitutions whenever they did not have what the customer ordered! This is shockingly socialistic. If this particular McDonalds did not have what the customer ordered they would give something else of equal or greater value. The CUSTOMER HAD NO CHOICE NOR WOULD THEY GET THEIR MONEY BACK!

While the media tries to get everybody to play along and laugh at Latreasa Davis, Latreasa Davis is a righteous hero in my book. I only wish Latreasa Davis could be recognized as the flash point for THE birth of real consumer rights in this country rather than being ridiculed by our very own stupid media.

While everyone mocks Davis's use of 911 for a Chicken McNuggets order gone wrong, the real issue here is that there is no way to instantly report blatant corporate stupidity and have someone from the government actually show up and protect the consumer from the corporation.

We should all be concerned that not only is there no way to get instant action over corporate arrogance, if you try to get instant protection, YOU WILL GET ARRESTED and be made fun of by the media.

McDonald's should be picketed for actually thinking it is OK to take a customer's money, and then decide what food to give that customer. McDonald's offer of a free make good coupon to Ms. Davis is the final condescending insult from the corporate world to the consumer.

For those of you who don't take this editorial seriously, I DARE YOU to accept someone else's money for a specific product or service that you regularly sell, and then inform the customer you do not have their item and instead will be giving them something of equal or greater value of your choosing, and that under no circumstance will you give them back their money.

I double dare you to try that. Actually, please don't, as I don't want to be responsible for your premature demise or likely injury that may result.

Would you really accept such shallow treatment if it happened to you?
