Fights Break Out Across America Over Latest Air Jordans Release

Tyler Durden's picture




 

There was a time in America when retail brawls only broke out around Thanksgiving dinner time (and increasingly earlier with every passing year). It appears that's no longer the case as the recent release of the Air Jordan 11s reveals. USA Today reports that following the release of Jordan 11 Retro Gamma Blue sneakers on Saturday, "the nation just about fell apart." One week ago, a crowd tore down a mall door just to get an advance ticket to buy the $185 Jordans. With the shoes now officially on sale, the world appears to be ending.

And it goes on: In Dallas, police reported to a fight in line Friday night. At 6 a.m. Saturday, customers tried to cut in line, causing a commotion that required police intervention, according to MyFoxDFW.

In the Bronx, two people brawled outside of a Foot Locker.

My kid loves the meatloaf and mashed taters.  Do you have any idea how hard it is to get a kid to eat anything but fastfood?  And you want to take that choice away?   Pleeeeeze.....

Just make your meatloaf at home and mash the taters yourself.

And then go on Ebay and search for Cracker Barrel items and buy them 90% off....slightly used maybe....but still.

Your're such an ignorant fucktard.  You're just the kind of moron the leash pulling elite LOVE to lead around by the nose like a dumb ox. 

RIGHT.....LEFT.....SOCIALIST......CAPITALIST.......CONSERVATIVE......LIBERAL......DUCK SEASON.....WABBIT SEASON !!!!!

LOL !!!!

UH..Ohhhh......look out on your six.....here comes a sneaky pinko commie bed-wetting bastard coming to take your money and your guns outta your cold, dead hands.

All the while getting fucked by the Captains of Industry with their Global Wage Arbitrage thanks to both Democrats and Republicans.  Your'e tax dollars (inflated away by the Fed) being taken to fund some military base in a Republican district that does not need to be used anymore.

Private. capitalistic auto companies and banks being bailed out by a Republican president and administration.  And then excelerated by a Democratic President and Congress.

But I know....it's just easier to believe in Boogymen like Socialists and Joos.....right asshole?

There, there....it was just a bad dream....go back to sleep sweetie.  Here's a nice cup of warm milk.  Sweet dreams of Ronald Reagan.

mofreedom, I would have to agree with you.  Until reading this thread, I didn't even KNOW about the incident with teh Land Rover.  

Will it be 100 more years until the African American community signs the "American Contract"?  

Stay in school, don't have kids until you marry and don't quit your job until you have a better one lined up.  Those three things are all you need to succeed in America.  

It is not easy, it is not fun, but you will be just fine if you persevere.

To sign a contract, you must first be able to read. To understand a contract, it helps to have above an average racial IQ of 75. To value a contract, in helps to have a low time preference; so to answer your question DCRB, no 1000 years will not be enough.

It ain't cultural, it is, in fact, genetic.

How many Jews did you see in those videos rioting over Chinese slave labor made shoes of some rich black man who doesn't give a fuck about his own people ?

How many Jews have you seen blow up busses, outdoor food markets and skyscrapers ?

How many Jews are calling for the Jewish version of a Caliphate ?

How many Jews in various locations in large metropolitan cities in the U.S. are blairing out from Minoret installed loudspeakers the call to prayer and conquest ?

That's what I thought.....so shut the fuck up.

He could have said Christian to make the same point. Or congress. He was responding to the above statement of yours.

Edit: Furthermore he did not say Jews. He said Zionists.

Also let me know Ream-us when the "Zionist" start forcing their women to wear Burkas, cut off their clits, kill them to preserve their honor, ban them from driving, treat them as property with the permission of the court system, marry them off to old farts who would have a hard time getting it up even with Viagra.

Let me know when the so called "moderate Moozies" grow some balls and have their "Protestant Reformation" or their "American Revolution" style overthrow of the Moozie maniacs.  Every one out there states that the moderates make up the VAST majoirty of Moozies.   Well.....let them prove it.

Hell's Bell's.....if there is not a Zionist or Jew or Christian to kill......they slit the throats, bomb, shoot, hang, torture, drown, and stone to death their own kind if they do not belong to either the right family tribe or even sect of Islam.

Yeah.....the Zionis's are SOOOOooooo much worse than the Moozies.    LOL !!!!!!!!!

Uhhh...no asshole....I know the difference.

I am a Zionist as well and am not Jewish.  I believe the Jews had and still have a right to the land they settled millinia ago and in particular Jerusalem.  Even archeology is proving that day in and day out.

Even the Moozies before they became Moozies at the edge of the sword and by conquest of a mad, pedophile herdsman, didn't give too much of a shit about that land.  Never could do anything with it.  Let it become a wasteland.

Even Mark Twain during his travels there remarked about the utter desolation of the land.  That's until the Jews were allowed to return.

So suck it.  Results are all that matter.

There is peace and prosperity in the land of Israel and nothing but death, decay, chaos, civil war and desolation in the lands of the Moozies from Libya and Sudan to Iraq and Afghanistan.

Reality is a bitch Remus.....and you are reality's bitch.

Go back to bed junior,.....it's past your reality time.

But first....consider this.  The Muzzies are Zionists too.  They want Jerusalem all for themselves.  Been that way for nearly a 1000 years.  Christians too at one time.  So the whole Zionists label is as worn out and tired as Socialist and Capitalist.

Now.....about the whole warmonger thing.

Take a look at ANY news feed you trust.  Now search it REALLY.....REALLY hard.

And count up the daily bombings, kidnappings, throat slittings, back of the head shootings, long range artillery shelling, chemical weapon using, raping and pillaging going on by Jews on Jews either in Jerusalem or in the world at large.

You know the answer.  You're just too chicken shit, cowardly and eaten up with illogical hate for Jews and "Zionists" to accept the truth

That's why no matter your age.......you're just a fucking child

Back to bed junior......don't forget to take your meds.

pfft,

...until the Jews were allowed to return...

allowed by whom?

I've made it a point ever since I was a teenager, to avoid logos on my clothing if at all possible. I've noticed that the people most likely to be impressed by such things, either have them themselves, or will gladly take yours.

I'd much rather pay for a good pair of shoes.

I'd say it's "A Bad Moon is Rising", but that one came and went before G.W. Bush stepped into office.  His protege is only making it far worse as envisioned by his mentors.

Can you pay for those $185.00 "Air Jordans" with your welfare card?  Sit back and enjoy the show people.

If you read the latest on this site about Fukushima, it's not like anyone who reads here or anywhere else in America for that matter is prepared to ensure the future survival of themselves and their families by throwing the scum of the planet in D.C. in jail for the decades of treason they've committed in the taxpayer publics name?

Just imagine what it will be like within a year when they won't have a free credit card courtesy of U.Sam to purchase necessities like "food"?!!!

For future reference. To avoid contact with people that haven't eaten anything in about 6 days...  Have lots of MREs ready to go so that you won't face the "Air Jordan" groupies when that moment of shopping angst hits all of us.

By fight club standards, very unimpressive on several fronts:

1. They are too public about fight club.

2. They are doing it for the wrong reasons (consumer goods). Advertising has them chasing shoes, working jobs they hate so they can buy shit they don't need.

3. Only two guys to a fight.

4. Only one fight at a time.

5. No shirt, no FUCKING SHOES. Bitchez.

6. You are not your Jordans.

7. If someone yells "stop!", goes limp, taps out, the fight is over. 

Kids, this is your life and it is ending one minute at a time. The things you own, end up owning you.

People fighting over $185 pair of sneakers made for $10 in a sweatshop in Asia..Nike must be laughing on the way to the bank. Once you own the sneakers, what are the chances you keep them on your feet if you live in the hood?

Long ago I bought Ford, say around $12 and a friend of a friend got his 2 boys' names tattooed on his arms for around 1k.

A few years on I more than doubled my money, and the FOAF had some blotchy scrawl across his arms.

You really cannot fix stupid - I for one am tired of paying the moron tax though - stealing from me and mine to buy the votes of the slavering mouth breathers.

I hope someday a real rain will come and wash all this scum off the streets...

I cannot say I care what the blacks and the wiggers do; what the mouthbreathers do ... they keep it in their own neighborhoods, it is fine with me.  I don't care if they go to the mattresses, go to civil war ... same with the barrios and Mexican borderlands - they stay among their own and kill their own, I do not have the time to care.  

The Hands-Across-The-Water attitude has furrowed the brows of American Lexus Liberals for decades ... they may have the resources to share-their-caringness, I do not.

What is interesting is when they conflate it with political policy, then we become the moral police of the world, like now.

CNN and MSNBC think that racism is taught.  It isn't taught, it is OBSERVED!!!

Sorry to any of the few good black folk reading this.  It must be very hard being you.  Drove through Baltimore yesterday to drop off some books for donation and must've passed literally 500 foreclosed and boarded up homes, plenty you can tell were burnt, and some completely demolished (and/or burnt) with the debris laying literally all over the lots.

White people didn't cause that.  Jew bankers....well, one can certainly make that argument.

I am surprized no enterprising trail lawyer hasn't sued Nike and their card box cut out Foot Locker for the mayhem and death responsible for these releases.

Nike and FL meticulously time the releases to match disposal income (welfare payments, SSDI, food stamps) that is available at certain times on the month and seasonality. 

A little blood on the sidewalk is - in their marketing department - best advertising that money can't buy.

And don't even get me started about the slave show factories run by the Koreans in Cambodia, Vietnam, etc. Nike's margins on this throw away fluff shit are around 80% after CIF and distribution. And just for shit's and giggles if you can get ahold of it read their vendor contracts. Our legal guys said 'no way' - it's a one way liability ticket to you.

It's the elitests (1%) that make the problems so they can fix them (i.e. enact more draconian laws to gain more control, more power and more wealth).

well if 2 dudes or sheilas beat the crap out of each other over a pair of sneakers, that ain't got nothing to do with the 1%. but i agree, while the .0001% are at the root of the problems, the sheeple by their nature, do not act to solve the problems, and by extension, therefore "make the(eir) problems" (worse).

of course "TPTB control the media, corporations, manufacturing and marketing of all these products". But if people have missed out on basic behavior 101, that still ain't got anything to do with media, corporations or the elite, it's either lack of character or pure selfishness (well, i agree, also attributes of TPTB...), but still. no direct cause-effect IMHO. anyway, we're getting semantic here.

Dude, we had a fight at the mall in Hagerstown, MD over shoes.  This is a city of about 40k and only about 7% black.  No need to actually mention who was involved here.  Census data shows it to be around 15% black, but that's only because there's a huge state prison on the south side of the town.

Indeed.  I have no idea what they even do up there other than stay there to be close to their boyfriends/brothers/cousins/etc. who are locked up.  It is a very peaceful redneck town, a northeastern extention of West Virginia before you end up in Pennsyltucky.  As a transportation hub (and nothing else) it got hit hard during the recession.
