Don't really care if they take up seats. Don't sure how the other guys ended up in the US, don't really care, but the real question is... Why would they allow an 80 year-old widow to immigrate? |

It's possible she has family here, in which I suppose they'd be her visa sponsors. Being willing to take care of her doesn't necessarily mean they're willing to spend much time with her though, so it's not surprising she might still be lonely. |

Doesn't Mcdonalds advertise their locations as McCafes now? Gotta expect that some cafe customers are going to sit around taking up space and sipping on a small coffee for hours. |

If they were buying curly fries, I'm sure they would each gotten their own pack, as I've heard they're good. |

The article states it's more than just a few hours.

I didn't say it was a few hours.. I'm curious if a Starbucks would ask them to leave if they stayed that long. I don't know why they choose to sit in McDs though, place smells like grease constantly. |
