Goofus was looking for a warm place to sleep and a few square meals over the holidays.
Achievement accomplished.

The reasonable man understands the constraints of the world and bends his will to match reality.

The unreasonable man recognizes no such constraints and attempts to bend reality to match his will.

Therefore the unreasonable man gets arrested for punching a cop in the face.

Every cop needs a punch in the face for time to time.

There's a huge difference between punching a Walmart receipt checker and a pig.

Gallant sounds like a boring pussy. I would much rather hang out with Goofus.

Would've been nice to find out why he was requested to leave. I'm pretty sure it wasn't for asking for Coke with no ice.

Gallant makes witty Goofus and Gallant comments on his own.

Goofus demands comments be made for him.

Though Chicago is an extremely segregated city, Edgewater is one of those "no man's lands" where no single socioeconomic group has the upper hand. From one block to another, you'll go from run-down gang turf to high end yuppie land. It's the north side, so a bit different than South or West.

I'm always surprised at just how fast an evil-doer goes down when the PD is doing it. One minute the guy is standing, then he isn't.

Yeah I know it's a practiced art but still, amazing

Generally speaking punching a cop is a good way to get tazed.
/Before any Fark Cop hate say anything if a civilian tazed a person who punched them the cops wouldn't do anything.

in theory, i agree with punching the cops, but in practice, it usually does not work out to well. cops love to get all tasery.

If you're white, if you're a different complexion, they might decide to shoot you.

FTA:
A man who walked into an Edgewater neighborhood Italian restaurant, took off his shoes and refused to leave was arrested about dinnertime Christmas Eve after he allegedly punched a responding police officer.

Most restaurants aren't too keen on customers going barefoot, smelly feet and all that.

Well, I would never be stupid enough to punch a cop, but I've never had reason to punch a pig or even the opportunity to do so. Now, a Walmart receipt checker on the other hand...

You know, I saw that. I just never thought it would lead to such a ruckus, unless he was being a hideous ass even then.

I would also like to request a button that makes fart noises, and it must make those noises on the computer of the person who has commented, whom I wish to fart upon, with my Fark fart button.

There should be a Goofus and Gallant suspense/thriller movie, where a schizophrenic Gallant slowly comes to the horrifying realization that he is also Goofus.
