I thought "we" stopped killing for shoes and had moved on to oil and plasma TVs.

On the lighter side, as far as I know this year noone died on Black Friday. Apparently they didn't have the right shoes on the shelves. They should get their act together and help these intelligent, worldly, godly, reasonable, fairminded people kill each other off so us radicals can take over.

Sensing negativity ? Quite perceptive, like a piece of crepe' paper to an open flame. Yes, this is "civilisation".

Beam me up Scotty.

They're doing that shit in Scotland too ? Fuck, I thought they had more sense.

I mean out of Scots I am not that surprised that there might be some violence, but over shoes ? They used to fight over boats or some shit, in the past. I mean they are a tough people, hell they scard the fucking Loch Ness monster away ! The proof is in the fact that they can't find the motherfucker.

Kidding aside, this type of story will grab attention because of something physical happening. I don't mind something physical happening from time to tme. People got this stupid fucking notion that fights should never happen. That is bullshit. What, only cops are allowed to beat people up ? Bullshit.

But this is different, and in a very disturbing way. They are like fucking animals, in fact WORSE than most animals ! We know this and what scares anyone with a brain is that these peole HAVE THE MONEY to buy this garbage.

They have money, and they are so into materialism that they will trample people in a fucking doorway to get a fucking TV set.

Tennis shoes. Life, death, infinity........... Ben Casey.

Where'zat then popeye? Can't find anything in our Scottish news here.

Anyone that is prepared to go to those kind of lengths for something like a pair of blinking shoes is astounding, to me. In fact it's quite comical in a sad way.......:)

agirl, it is.
I think it was the fourth of third or the fifth of the eighth or something like that.
And they had those Shetland sheep dogs grabbing shoes left and right. Well trained!

I think I know what he means but I am not telling.

Regardless, you seemed shocked at it happening (supposedly) in Scotland but if it was in the US it's nothing unusual.

I agree. What does that say about us ? Expect Black Friday massacres every year ? Tennis shoe shooting on the rise in the midwest, but leveling off on the west coast ? Police brutality rates down in Oregon but up in North Dakota ? Just the daily news.

The Great Society. Now all we need is sociable people.

Term, yeah and what then; "All visas for Scots cancelled for the holidays?"
"Airline passengers being profiled to prevent Scots from entering country!"
"Two elderly ladies being charged with smuggling "Cambell Clan" kilts into Chicago's O'Hare; Chicago Police in a quandry!"

"Term, yeah and what then; "All visas for Scots cancelled for the holidays?""

They'll have a better time in Venezuela or something this time of year. Actually where to go now I think would be Ecuador. I don't even care if they have a toilet mounted right on the equator........... It's just a different as hell place. They've had a US built radio telescope (system) there for ever. Now something like that, I can dig it, it gave us more information about the universe, and it kinda was a good idea to be THERE by the equator for kinda obvious reasons. (????) but the whole bunch of radiotelescopes on the planet share info and in essence, give a bigger picture. I support that type of international cooperation.

What's their budget, a half a mil a year ? The dickwads gave that much to those bozos in ,,,,, California ? Sounds like a California thing,,,,,, Solyndra. Fuck, at least we get some pictures out of that other money.

I dunno, these fucks will cut funding to anything to retain their entitlements and shit. I don't care they make three billion a year after leaving office, they will still want that unlimited healthcare they get at our expense.

Ecuador, now's the time. No shit, at the solstice they will have the most moderate climate of the year. Could go in June. Don't think it would be a good idea to go during an equinox.

I wonder what a pair of Nikes go for down there.
