Oh, now I see why we have the Florida tag.

To be fair, it tasted like a sausage.

A Dollar store demographic tag.

All this at a Family Dollar Store in Florida.

It's like it was staged for Fark.

Sounds like an offer one can't refuse

Paranoid schizophrenics have more provocation to attack from their rice krispies than this woman did...

Wonder what race she is.

This is what happens when you mix the monkeys in with the people.

265 pounder with 8 month old baby?

I guess that's a no-go on losing the pregnancy weight gain?

No, no you don't.

Yeah, me too.

Oh, okay, you're right, I don't really wonder, more like *bet*.

There you go. Now you can feel superior about being a racist asshat.

I'm not a racist asshat, I was just wondering.

i knew it.


/its not racism, its statistics.

Well you hold Franky and Estelle, I gotta go to the cockpit and kick some ass.


/obscure?

Tiffany Mashae Brown

yep... didn't take long to figure out the race on this one... surprise, surprise...

lol

Yeah, white girls been taught for so long that they're weak and worthless it would have been more likely for one o' them to use the baby as a weapon. Oh, wait, that did happen before. And it was already posted on fark.

yeah, real superior there...

lost cause: Wonder what race she is.

Human, I'm afraid. Fact is, white, black, or any other color, people are just no damn good, and there's nothing you can do about it.
Look on the bright side - in a few years, you'll be dead.

FTA:

The officer charged Brown with two counts of battery, one count of resisting arrest with violence and one count of battery on a law enforcement officer.

No child endangerment charge? Also, no threatening charge for expressing an intent to kill?

Sounds like tubal ligation would be good start when the punishment is assigned. Too bad it can't be made retroactively. To her mother.

That's fun to say no matter who you are or where you're from!

Racisim isn't always taught. It can be learned from experience as well.

HUMAN. Get the farking word right. If you're going to talk about skin color, it's ETHNICITY. Race deals with creatures of SIMILAR AND COMPATIBLE GENETIC STOCK, which means the only RACISM that would happen is if you hated every human, including yourself.

Also, I am genuinely surprised it was a black woman. Does that make me not racist, or totally naive?

Also, doesn't like people "playin" on her phone.

/Brenda Rounds FTW!

Brown bit the last victim, a Fort Pierce Police Department officer, when he struggled to detain her due to her large size - 265 pounds, according to the report.

Sounds like she was probably just hungry.

/How did this become a racist thread? I could EASILY see this happening in West Virginia.

Wonder what race she is. I would venture to guess that she isn't oriental.

Quoting from your own link (with bold emphasis mine alone:)

"1. a group of persons related by common descent or heredity.
2. a population so related."

Sounds a shiatload like GENETICS to me. Once again, HUMAN RACE, as we have a common ancestor somewhere. Did you bother to read your own link to the fullest?

Seriously, WTF is wrong with people? In the last few years we've had road rage, airplane rage & now we've got checkout line rage, all things that didn't exist until several years back. What is causing people to lose it over something so simple as being redirected to another checkout line? I guess I'm naive because I just don't get it.

Just for additional reference from Shadowself's link:

"Usage Note: The notion of race is nearly as problematic from a scientific point of view as it is from a social one. European physical anthropologists of the 17th and 18th centuries proposed various systems of racial classifications based on such observable characteristics as skin color, hair type, body proportions, and skull measurements, essentially codifying the perceived differences among broad geographic populations of humans. The traditional terms for these populations-Caucasoid (or Caucasian), Mongoloid, Negroid, and in some systems Australoid-are now controversial in both technical and nontechnical usage, and in some cases they may well be considered offensive. (Caucasian does retain a certain currency in American English, but it is used almost exclusively to mean "white" or "European" rather than "belonging to the Caucasian race," a group that includes a variety of peoples generally categorized as nonwhite.) The biological aspect of race is described today not in observable physical features but rather in such genetic characteristics as blood groups and metabolic processes, and the groupings indicated by these factors seldom coincide very neatly with those put forward by earlier physical anthropologists. Citing this and other points-such as the fact that a person who is considered black in one society might be nonblack in another-many cultural anthropologists now consider race to be more a social or mental construct than an objective biological fact."

In other words, a crap society and poor mentality took a logical biological definition and turned it into something more personal and opinionated.

I sure did, even all the parts you cut out that do not support your argument. And it's debatable. You seem pretty convinced that you are 100% correct - if so, why are the other definitions even still in there?

The media calls it "something-rage", and unintentionally gives it validity and acceptance. Instead of calling it a random act of violence, which is what it really is.

This woman didn't attack another customer because she was "redirected to another checkout line." I'll bet what happened was that another lane opened up and the person behind her went into that new lane. Feeling cheated out of her rightful spot as first in line in the new lane, young Tiffany Dashae went into full weave-snatching mode.

Nice observation. I've been "cheated out of that" before, but have also cheated others out of it as well. So it evens out.

Because habits are hard to break - the American population has the habit of using words improperly or attributing to them a somewhat incorrect definition, or in this case, adding a definition to a word when a word for that definition already exists. The actual SCIENTIFIC definition of race is what's real, not the social and moral stigma that's still carried around by uneducated people today. About half of the time I hear the word racist used - it's used in reference to someone's religious choice, which is incorrect. If you're discriminating by color of one's skin, which is all about pigments, you're a pigmentist, which I like because of the word PIG in the front. If you hate canines of all sorts, you are racist. If you only hate wolves, you're a speciesist (coined from the word Speciesism from the 1970s.) It's ethnicism if you discriminate against someone's national or geographical location or origin.

Ahh, the joys of having a paper-bound dictionary from before the collapse of our school system, circa the late 90s.

That may be true, but we're certainly seeing more & more acts of random violence nowadays. Even school shootings, which were virtually unheard of 20 years ago. I was bullied on a daily basis in high school & had easy access to hunting rifles & ammo, but it never occurred to me to go on a shooting spree at school. Back when I was growing up during the 60s & early 70s no one in my neighborhood locked their garages & only locked their homes if they were going to be gone for more than a day. Neighbors cared about neighbors and kept an eye on each others property as part of being a good neighbor. Most of the men & boys in the neighborhood hunted so there were hunting rifles in most of the garages, yet no one took a gun or rifle to school to get rid of someone who was bullying them.

mmagdalene; Who is it that takes of their shoe to beat people?

Men with steel toed shoes or ladies in stilettos. Can't do much damage with a pair of flip flops. I imagine the Dutch must beat on each other occasionally with those wooden shoes, as well.
