The “pay it forward” idea was apparently too much to bear for one American woman eating at McDonald’s, who not only refused to pay for a police officer’s meal but also slammed a McDonald’s employee for suggesting the gesture.
The woman, who said her name was Samantha and that she came from a “really small conservative town,” was so upset by the encounter that she took it to TikTok.
“Guys I just had the weirdest encounter at the McDonald’s drive-thru,” she said in the video.
“So I pull up to pay and then as the lady is still holding my card she goes ‘Just letting you know that there’s a cop behind you.'”
Samantha’s order reportedly totaled less than $3, while the order of the officer behind her totaled $17.
When the employee told her that people in the area often paid it forward for law enforcement, Samantha could have politely declined and simply been on her way— however, she decided to escalate the situation with a cringe-worthy phase that has taken off in recent years.
“I was like, ‘Honey, in this car, the blood type is ACAB positive,'” Samantha responded.
For those out of the loop, the acronym means “All Cops Are B**tards,” and is used most frequently by far left extremist groups such as Antifa.
“She looked disgusted,” Samantha recounted, “But I’m like, ‘Who asks that?'”

According to the Daily Star, many TikTok users praised Samantha for her behavior.
“What a little mcbootlicker,” one user wrote.
“Almost $20????? LMAO I wouldn’t buy a cop something for 20 cents but $20 is absolutely insane,” another added.
However, not everybody was on board with Samantha’s rant.
“I hope you never get in trouble and need to call the cops. Most cops are regular people,” one person chided.
The video has been viewed over 900,000 times.
