WARNING: EXTREME VIOLENCE
Some people (previous post here) accuse me of encouraging racism by posting black people behaving badly (to state it mildly). To the contrary, I think it should be mandatory that everyone see this behavior, so we can stop pretending that this country's faults arise from 'others'.
The McDonald's cashier clearly went beyond simply defending himself, and he will suffer for this. On the other hand these two females stepped over a line that justified the initial response (IMHO). No telling what kind of life-threatening beating they were prepared to give this working black man. This is the risk you take when you assault someone - they may have a metal rod handy and experience in using it.
FTR, I assume that anytime I pass a fifty (rarely), that it will be scrutinized in all high/low tech's of manner, in order to validate it's authenticity - including the risk that it may be both authentic and rejected.

ReplyDeletehow is it that only the misbehavior of black folks is instructional? You mayhap have the benefit of some level of balance, but your rationale for posting this varies little from that given by sbpdl.com, the service of "truth".
This blog's 'instructional' illustrations have in no way been exclusive to blacks. The near real-time illustration is simply letting the chips fall where they may. You pointed me in a direction, and I simply fairly acknowledged what I found. And yes I believe black behavior is the most accurate communication of the black mindset.
ReplyDeleteI thought it was the food that killed people at McDonald's.
ReplyDeleteI loved this. Not only because it demonstrates that you can't just jump over a counter and expect to break bad in someone's business but also there is a certain amount of justification in the beating. And of course, "Miss Ann" is standing there screaming her head off trying to control the scene...
ReplyDeleteI am with you on this. Why these women think the best way to handle an issue is to assault someone is beyond me. Seemed to me the guy was actually in fear of getting hurt by these crazy females.
ReplyDeleteWhat part of "Let me talk to the manager" do they not get?
The stupid blonde wouldn't have yelled stop if the girls had been beating the guy but when he defends himself against two obviously crazy and bent on harm girls she yells her head off....
Idiocy.......
I've done my share of behind-the-counter food service in my life, I've never been jumped by anyone. But, I have to say, though the overwhelming majority of blacks have been perfectly civil, I've only ever gotten these kinds of crazy, disproportionate responses from blacks (I have seen white customers get violent with each other, though).
ReplyDeleteI wonder if the people who act out like this assume it's some kind of particular discrimination, like if the policy says you have to have ID to buy booze or cigarettes no matter how old you are, or you can't pay with this card because it's declined, somehow the real reason is that either the clerk or the manager or the shop owner is a racist and put special policies in place for dealing with black people.
Is this what's going through people's minds in that instant, or what?
What a horrible scene all around. Yet I can't help it, I feel bad for the guy. They jumped the counter, they could have had anything, any weapon, on them, they were foul-talking, ignorant and seemed nuts. Nobody came to the aid of the cashier, he was on his own. He took care of business. Period. The police should have just come and hauled the two women away for violent and disorderly conduct. It seems to me, the cashier was just protecting himself. Besides, people acting like that need a beat-down. Maybe next time they will act more appropriately.

THIS is the real issue. Highly processed and/or genetically modified food probably has more to do with the behavior of both parties than does the race of either.
im sorry but from the famous line of Brand Nubian"punks jump up to get beat down"....i dont condone violence or even hitting women but those ladies were asking for it. Chics wanna be like dudes u get beat down like a dude. Should the cashier conceded and not defend himself? tru he should have handled it better but sometimes a good old-fashion azz whoopin speaks vols....stop tryin to be hard(thug) and u can lessen chances of this occurring.
