A 28-year-old man, Martin Jose Alvarez, was arrested Wednesday for causing a disturbance at a Cape Coral, Fla., Waffle House restaurant over the way his bacon was cooked. When police officers arrived, they heard him yelling expletives at the staff. “You better cook the f—– bacon right!” he was accused of yelling, according to the local Florida TV station.

I’m sorry, but I don’t understand the problem. When a man pays for bacon, he is absolutely justified in expecting it to be cooked properly. The police charged him with disorderly intoxication, resisting arrest and intent to do violence. You call this justice? The cooks got off scot free! I doubt there’s a jury in the country that would convict him.
