Black Friday - Bloody Friday

Post by _dartagnan »

Can you believe this crap?

A Wal-Mart employee was killed when hundreds of unruly shoppers broke down the doors and rushed the entrance. What a bunch of "F" ing savages.

Terribly sad. All for saving a few bucks on some electronics or other doo dads. Shameful. I wonder how the members of the crowd are going to feel this Christmas. I hope just awful.

No. The womenz have pretty much left the board because people like you and I are allowed to post.

You're a racist.

They must think we suck at cybersex. Those judgmental bigots.

You're a racist.


OK, now things are back to normal.

Black Friday, African-American Friday, Caucasian Friday, what's the difference?

Oh, and what happened was sad and crazy. I don't think it's the first time it's happened though.

I'll oblige. Racist.
I was going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you didn't see a bunch of blacks in the picture but just thronging people. I was going to assume that your choice of the word "savages" was a coincidence and would have been applied even if everyone in the picture had been white.

But your anticipation that someone would call you racist actually shows consciousness of guilt. You saw bunch of n*****s and not unfortunate people in a crowd situation. You should have left it at the first post.

This is a phenomena of crowds and happens in situations when it is so crowded people can't see and don't realize what is happening. It isn't a sign of low intelligence, racial character or individual malice.
I don't suppose you thought the people at the December 3, 1979 Who concert tragedy in Cincinnati were "savages" now did you? Many other crowd throng death examples exist but that picture with all the black faces just got under your skin didn't it?

Dumbass.

No you weren't. You were licking your chops from the get go, just waiting to see who would say it first. You just couldn't stand it. You have no control over yourself.

But your anticipation that someone would call you racist actually shows consciousness of guilt.

Now Tarski is a psychologist! I mean it couldn't possibly have anything to do with the fact that people in our day and age are called racist for just about anything and I have performed social experiments with this on this form in the past. I mean it couldn't possibly have anything to do with the fact that I have wrongly been accused of racism on this thread by several ignorant, race-baiting posters like yourself.

I saw a bunch of people who ended up acting like savages. You're the one obssessed with color. And for the record, "savages" was the term used by a witness who was cited in the article, and for all I know, she was probably black too. But it isn't racism unless a white person says this.
This is a phenomena of crowds and happens in situations when it is so crowded people can't see and don't realize what is happening.

They removed the doors from the hinges and busted through because they were afraid they weren't going to get that 10% discount on their kid's Transformer. This wasn't a simple matter of people getting together and suddenly freaking out over the size of their numbers, that they mindlessly run in the same direction with no direct intentions. These people were idiots for busting through and they were savages for stampeding another human being to death.
It isn't a sign of low intelligence, racial character or individual malice.

Am I supposed to be disagreeing with this? You'd love that wouldn't you.
I don't suppose you thought the people at the December 3, 1979 Who concert tragedy in Cincinnati were "savages" now did you?

I think the worst case of savage idiots running amuck is during the football games in the UK where people have been killed. You'll find nary a black person there, but there is mindless rage, enough to go around for everyone.
Many other crowd throng death examples exist but that picture with all the black faces just got under your skin didn't it?

Actually, when I saw the photo I was surprised to see there weren't any whites, and hesitated to post it because I knew idiots like you just couldn't stand to pass up an opportunity to accuse me of racism. I knew someone would come through. You're so predictable and you never disappoint. You see racism because you want to. It is part of your liberal religion. You need everyone on the other side to be racist. That makes the world much more simplistic for you.

The issue has nothing to do with race and everything to do with greed.

Why did you ask people to call you a racist, Dart?

Then you whine when others do as you ask?

Baiting isn't civil. Be civil or move to Telestial. You really haven't been paying attention lately, have you?
