It's called Black Friday for a reason: Lanessa L. Lattimore threatens to shoot shoppers at Toys"R" Us

Black Friday and Black people: this day is never, ever a good one for Black people. Income inequality and Black people are on a first-name basis, making consumerism an infrequent guest at the average Black household.

Get out of Lanessa's way or else!
Black people don't have a positive track-record at malls/shopping complexes across the nation, so the prospects of large numbers of Black people descending upon stores offering steep discounts the day after Thanksgiving is tantamount to giving a teenager car keys and whiskey.

Throw into this already combustible situation the idea that all people will be forced to endure waiting in lines (Black people don't like waiting in lines) to enter, shop and eventual check out and you have a recipe for hilarity and unfortunately, chaos.

In Wisconsin, we got exactly that:
Crime Beat Wisconsin - Black Friday 2010 saw the threat of violence at a toy store in Madison, Wisconsin, according to police.

Local authorities say a woman has been arrested and is accused of threatening to shoot other shoppers as she tried to cut the line in front of them to get the Black Friday specials offered by a local Toys "R" Us, reports NBC 15.Com.

The TV news station has the incident report from the Madison Police Department that reveals "several hundred shoppers were waiting in line for the Toys "R" Us store to open when a 21-year-old woman attempted to move to the front of the line."
Who was this individual, you might wonder? One Lanessa L. Lattimore:

Incident Type:
Disturbance

Incident Date:
11/25/2010 - 10:06 PM

Address:
7309 West Towne Way

Arrested:
Lanessa L. Lattimore- 21 year old Middleton resident

Details:
On 11/26/10, several hundred shoppers were waiting in line for the Toys "R" Us store to open when a 21-year-old woman attempted to move to the front of the line. 


She was confronted by numerous shoppers and in turn she made threats to retrieve a gun and shoot the shoppers. 

No gun was found and the suspect was arrested for disorderly conduct and taken to the Dane County Jail.

21 year old Middleton Woman

Black people don't like waiting in lines; suffer from extreme levels of income inequality; and harbor intense resentment at business owners who deem frequent visits from Black people a detriment to business and eventually cause for shuttering doors. Black Friday might bring in quick profits to off-set poor consumer confidence and spending in other fiscal quarters, but it help illustrates why the day after Thanksgiving is indeed labeled Black.

We do live among The Crazies. Normal people don't wake up nor camp out for Black Friday, and that is the official policy of Stuff Black People Don't Like. Something is seriously wrong with this country when we celebrate discounts by waking up at early hours to visit stores and pillage them for deals with the efficacy of 18th century pirates on the hunt for booty.

More stories of Black Friday will be discussed as they become public knowledge. No stories yet of people being stomped to death, but this story from Buffalo is pretty funny.

Always remember: if you see a line and Black people are in it, don't push. You might have either a lawsuit on your hands or threatened with gun violence.

Update:

Indianapolis had some fun with Black people and lines on Black Friday:
An Indianapolis woman was arrested today after she argued with shoppers at a Walmart checkout on Black Friday.

Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department reported an off-duty officer working at the Walmart Supercenter, 10617 E. Washington St., had to intervene when customers were arguing about a person accused of cutting in line at a checkout counter.
 

The officer asked Requita Sullivan, 29, Indianapolis, to exit the store, but as she walked toward the exit, she continued to argue with other store patrons who were in line, according to IMPD Sgt. Paul Thompson, a department spokesman.


The woman was arrested on a preliminary charge of trespass, a misdemeanor.

In Augusta, Georgia, a Black "Black Friday" shoplifter stabbed a Marine who merely tried to intervene and stop an attempted theft:


A Marine reservist is sent to the hospital after he's stabbed by a suspected Black Friday shoplifter at Best Buy. Deputies say the shoplifter was trying to get away with electronics when the Marine reservist stepped in.
Cpl. Phillip Duggan is recovering from a stab wound in his back after investigators say Tracy Attaway stabbed him after the Marine reservist stopped him from getting away. 

All week it's been people lined up outside of Best Buy for Black Friday. On this Black Friday though, deputies cars lined the outside of the building after investigators say a Marine reservist is stabbed by an attempted shoplifter.

"It was like wow! I can't believe he pulled that knife," Retired Marine and Toys for Tots volunteer, Larry Frelin said. "But those Marines acted instinctively."

Larry Frelin and a group of Marines were outside the store collecting Toys for Tots when it all started.
"We heard some noise going on in the inside and then we were thinking people were fighting over gifts," Frelin said. "We were thinking how ridiculous can that be?"

But it wasn't crazed shoppers, investigators say it was one attempted shoplifter, Tracy Attaway. Store officials say he was trying to steal a laptop and cameras before he was stopped by an employee. It was then he pulled out a knife and rushed for the door to get away with the goods.

"They jumped on top of him and they pulled him down," Frelin said he witnessed. "It took about five different people on top of him, but unfortunately he had a knife. He brought the knife around and managed to get it in the back of the Marine."
A mall was evacuated because of a fight that broke out (this happened in Los Angeles). A Wal-mart was evacuated near Sacramento. A Toys "R" Us in Wisconsin needed police protection; Blue "Black Friday" for Black shoppers in Palm Beach.

Here's a Black Friday fight that almost broke out at a Target in Florida; here's a fight that did take place. Gotta love it!

Black Guy will now post that the problem has nothing to do with black people, it's all because of capitalism.

I knew SBPDL was going to post something about this. What I haven't figured out is why black people are in such a hurry to get in the store to begin with, they can't afford anything? Is there some petty level of vindication of being first in the door just to buy a pair of baby socks? One of these day's I'd like to see some guy with an MG 42 go inside the store and reenact the Saving Private Ryan Omaha Beach scene on the incoming mob and post it on youtube.

This is funny.

Black Friday melees have nothing to do with black people. People, in general, like discounts and will do anything to get them, even if that means hurting others.

I have to admit I saw a $398 laptop in a Wal-Mart flyer and became almost animalistic at the idea of someone else getting the bargain. But it passed; I don't like the cold.

I imagine Black Friday is a capitalist Fat Cat's favorite day of the year. He lines his pockets at other people's misery.

America the Beautiful!!

You did say one thing that is correct, though, that blacks suffer from income inequality.

I find it interesting that you know this and yet highlight a "black person" acting up on Black Friday as something dire and terrible.

This is the behavior of people who have nothing, regardless of race. When we fix income inequality, no one will have to worry about "black people" cutting in line or shooting up Toy R Us stores.

Just a thought.... I imagine you disagree.

Simply put, all 3 videos clearly demonstrate the socially and mentally poisoned culture of BRA on (Act) "Black Friday" (which will sadly become "Black Everyday" if we don't right our great country's current political course immediately).

It is amazing that, generally, most Blacks cannot be counted on to arrive on time for ANYTHING - except to pick up a check, impregnating during prime ovulation and arriving EARLY to acquire useless short-term wealth plan opportunities and benefits. For a people that historically and statistically do so little to contribute to the productive end of civil society, its baffling how often you can publicly catch them in a haltitostic wide-mouth yawn or dramatic pose of rest.

Statistically, Blacks routinely, primitively and sociopathically step over (on on) their own flesh and blood financially, morally, intellectually and emotionally through failing generations- so what makes you think they would stop and help a downed stranger perilously in need if the hope and change of a hi-def wide-screen TV that is 40% off? Watch their faces and actions as they come through the door. They are not like us. There is a difference. Civil society is of no use to them.

Also, as expected, the #3 video is clearly a setup shuck'n jive slip'n fall manuever constructed to achieve a short-term wealth solution through litigation of the capitalist system (on a fairly generous day of sales).
While not shockingly the female "victim" is pregnant, the baby is of no concern at all as the (tumble) weave adjustment which comes first (just like the unfortunate unborn's absentee father who himself fiscally and physically soon disappears like wide-screens on Act Black Friday).

Merry Christmas.

Holler.

Okay, it's called Black Friday. A few well selected videos featuring black people. Yeah, you're right it's all about black people.

Right.

So give us an example of a Black Friday melee that doesn't involve black people.

It already resembles the scene from BATMAN, where The Joker brings out the greed in Gotham's citizens, and they trample over, and fight with, one another to to get the Joker's millions that he's got floating out of the sky. It was funny in Batman, but it's just pathetic and disgusting in real life.

"Black Friday" has unofficially become a national pastime, much like The Superbowl. There's nothing loving, or caring, or giving, about lining up 7 days in advance for these bargains. These "Black Friday" sales are all about "the self", designed to get people to spend money on themselves and not each other. I've never taken part in one of these stampedes and I never will. Corporate America will never get me to corral myself in a waiting pen like bulls, waiting for the doors to open so that shoppers can surge in and be pitted against one another like Christians fighting off the lions back in the 1st century.

That she was going to sue the company for "lack of security" was a foregone conclusion. I hadn't considered the possibility that she fell on purpose, but that makes sense to. The footage of her putting her weave back on while bodies keep falling down on and around her is priceless and might undermine her claims of injury and duress.

And, to be fair, in the previous clip the white older man in pain (looks like it could be bruised ribs) decides to shake it off and go hunt down those bargains. Unbelievable the displays of avarice and greed in these clips.

Yeah, right Moron. How do you suggest we "fix" income inequality???
Blacks will just keep hands outstretched, saying "And then???".

Haven't we already tried everything to get blacks off their asses and back to work to take care of themselves? Even if you have to work at as a french fryer, you could start somewhere. Stop buying $200 baby sneakers and start being responsible!

Redistributing wealth from those who have earned it, and spreading it out to those who have not earned it is a CRIME. Also called stealing. Blacks think that money grows on Obama trees.

Black people, due to lower IQ, would only fuck up more if you gave them more "income".

Where did I say that they didn't involve blacks? I only stated that the melees had nothing to do with black people.

I am sure you are aware, He Who Excels at Reading Comprehension, the term "black people" denotes the entire "race".

What you are seeing are several displays of individuals with the "black" phenotype get a little too excited by bargains.

I imagine other "races" do the same (I have seen it firsthand in the lone Black Friday to which I'd participated and, as I mentioned before, it seems to be a class issue at the local Wal-Mart) BUT it should be made perfectly clear news stories are broadcast from urban centers where large numbers of minorities live.

Thus, why you always see blacks!!

Look, I am a white man. I like a damn bargain, too. It's ridiculous to think black people, as a whole, are the reason Black Friday becomes chaotic. My wife, who is black, is a lady and chastised me several years ago for "rudely" seizing a CD player when a kid was coming towards the same one.

I think she was overreacting..... haha.

It's called greed and desperation. It exists among all "races".

R..Really? I mean..you are seriously that blind to the chaos that black people bring to the world? A few selected videos? Good lord, man. You would be buried alive under the weight of the proof of black misconduct if that was the goal of this blog. I just can't understand why a free thinking citizen (which you may or may not be, I do not know you) of any race that resides in the United States can't openly admit that certain races are more prone to violence and mayhem.
How can we not, when it is universally understood, amongst ALL races, ALL creeds, ALL religions, that BLACK NEIGHBORHOODS ARE BAD, BAD, BAD NEIGHBORHOODS! Everyone knows this, except blacks. Because they live in that neighborhood. And they are black. Being black in a black neighborhood is like wearing armor.

A black can walk freely in any neighborhood in America without the fear of being killed. A white cannot. Unless it is a white girl willing to give sex.

There exists a two tiered society now, everyone knows it but is afraid to admit it.

Blacks have cornered the market on entitlement, and whites have embraced self-reliance.

That is why we have this divide. Blacks want stuff for free from White people because black people think they are owed stuff because way-back-then black people were slaves of white people, and now it is illegal, and all descendants of White people need to pay for that transgression forever and ever and ever!

I guess that the (ill)logical next step is to hand out weapons, ala Gladiator, to the people in line and film them battling for bargains, and in turn airing it on tv as a great new reality show. "Blood and Bargains" anyone? I also found it quite telling as the fallen black woman was more concerned about maintaining her different race hair neurosis at all costs with no regard to her unborn child. All she saw were dollar signs I'm sure.

So then, your official position is...
"Although I do not know of a single example in history of a non-negro Black Friday melee, race is not a factor".

"I am sure you are aware, He Who Excels at Reading Comprehension, the term "black people" denotes the entire "race"."

A generality is usually NOT used to suggest an absolute.
For instance, when black author Toni Morrison stated "Black people are victims of an enormous amount of violence", I'm fairly certain she was not referring to the entire race as an absolute, especially since I know plenty of black people who have never been victims of violence.

Please take your semantics debates elsewhere.

Then I'm sure you agree that everyone should stop repeating the preposterous lie that "white people owned slaves", since obviously most whites never owned slaves.

Personally, I think it's ridiculous to think otherwise.
However, it is possible that being married to a black woman influences your perspective.

So does murder, rape, robbery, and other forms of violent crime.

However, this argument naively ignores the significant disproportion of violence among blacks throughout the entire globe.
There is not a place on earth where blacks are not disproportionately prone to violence, mayhem, and other uncivilized behavior.

You must not have heard about black women and their hair. I any situation where blunt force causes your wig to slip, you must cover the nappy naps up before any other black people spot you and start ROFLing. You will be ridiculed by other blacks to no end if you let your real self shine through. Besides, she probably paid for that wig on the layaway, sacrificing many other important things like electricity and food, so she's not going to let it go that easily. Must.....save.....the wig...................

That's crazy, I drove right by that Wal-Mart in KY today stopping to get gas on the long journey home from GA. Had no idea this had happened.

Getting up insanely early for Black Friday isn't my policy either. I don't want to be subjected to these barbaric displays. Remember the reason for the season!
