Its the same way all over, it's even worse in America.

That story on CNN where the old man was jumped on by a gang of black guys near an area of town known for gangs, the man was a white elderly man in his 60's coming out of a gas station and everyone watched, black women laughed calling him "old cracker" and noone came to help, and Andersoon Cooper said the gas station clerk didn't even call 911.

The man laid there for 30 minutes until a passerby called 911 as they drove past.


it's crap like that, that makes me wish we had more vigilantes in the world to beat people like that.

Where was the screaming woman when the employee (noone knew he was a felon):
-was being loudly harrassed for doing his job???
-was slapped and assaulted for doing his job???
-was chased by two crazed women who had the audacity to jump over the counter to get at him???
Screw that lady.

This video makes me hate fucking white people.

Stop fucking them, then?
I liked both your comment (despite the racism and ignorance, you have a point) and the other guy's comment about her raw concern being very important.
At least she cared enough to stay and try and stop him. She was clearly a woman herself and who knows if she had kids or whatever? But she stayed and tried to stop something she thought was wrong. Good for her, you probably wouldn't do the same whether you act like an e-thug or not.



@longde - the commotion starts happening AFTER the initial slap/harassment and the loud whacking noises do too, so that's when i assume most people would find out something is going on.

That's when i'd have found out, if i was there. It would hardly be fair to expect her to react sooner than she knows, would it?!

I don't know the situation of the woman, because all i have to go by is this video. How do i know that she saw the slap, or the harassment? You guys' emotions are out of control in here. I gave a measured reaction in the absence of knowledge of all the facts, am i being criticised for that!?

"No one asked for your sympathy, just like no one asked for your opinion."

There is a comment box under the video I assume its for people to use, This sentence you wrote is pretty much useless , just because none asked for an opinion dose not mean sum-one should not make one and it does not mean that that opinoin is valid or not valid.

"If you don't know who he is, why are you commenting?
Do you go to funerals and tell people "I don't know who he is but, he's probably a cunt!" "

So you know Steve jobs personally ? I am at his funeral now ? 99.9% of people who know about Steve jobs don't know him in the slightest. Maby you should pay more atention when you read what people say I said "We have this weird artificial image of him I don't even know who he is , he is probably as much a cunt as he is a nice guy." I did not say he was a cunt I said he was "probably as much a nice guy as he was a cunt" The point is Its impossible to really know there are reports of him being caring and reports of him being an exploitative bastard.

"Some people accomplish great things in life. You accomplished nothing.
Your death will be morned by no one."

Who are you to say what is a grate thing ? you don't know me or what I have done , say I have done nothing in life , but I have an organ doner card that gives another person life. To me that would be a far grater achievement than making lots of money or a successfully buissiness leader.

The numbers of people that morn you or not often has no baring on how "good" a person you are or the achievements you have made in life. I'm sure there are many people that have died who were arguably far more significant for man kind than steve jobs who were moard by noone or by very few people.

"I hope you die and to paraphrase Louie CK, I hope your mother has sex with someone with AIDS so she'll die. But before she dies, I hope you have sex with her, so you get AIDS and you'll die too."

Now you are wishing death on sum-one you don't know I can see how that's constructive , Its also really lazy as an insult to quote a comedian for an insult in the way you have done. It would make sense if a comedian had said a specific thing that carries a point across well , but in this case your just being lazy.

In the end you have failed to comprehend my first comment and as a result talked utter nonsense. You should probably think about what other people write and try and see where they are coming from before you get angry and comment back.

Well guess what... we all know you are a cunt.
Some people accomplish great things in life. You accomplished nothing.
Your death will be morned by no one.
I hope you die and to paraphrase Louie CK, I hope your mother has sex with someone with AIDS so she'll die. But before she dies, I hope you have sex with her, so you get AIDS and you'll die too.
>> ^westy:
It made me sad that he is dead which is pretty fucked up and shows you how shallow emotions can be, logically I don't care that he is dead not any more than any other person that has died.
We have this weird artificial image of him I don't even know who he is , he is probably as much a cunt as he is a nice guy.
Just because sum-one can be more easily attributed for there effect on the world should not mean we should necessarily celebrate them more or less than other people , or morn them more ore less than other people.

@charliem No, you are wrong.
Noone says that 0.999 = 1. What is true is that the number written as 0.(an infinite number of 9s), which we can write more prettily as 0.(9), is equal to 1. That means equal. Exactly equal. No equivalence needed.
Bear in mind that we are not talking about a number with a finite number of decimals. If we were, it would be true to say that we could get arbitrarily close to 1 without ever being exactly equal. But we are in fact talking about the infinite sum
9 (1/10) + 9 (1/10)^2 + 9 (1/10)^3 + ...
This is a geometric series of the form ar + ar^2 + ar^3 which according to the convergence theorem has the solution
ar/(1-r) = (9 (1/10))/(9/10) = 1
There, I just proved the equality for you.


Something tending to something isn't the something itself. Something tending toward 1 isn't, yet, 1. We don't live in the land of convergent infinities, we live in today. If you can right down enough .99999's that eventually turn into a 1, then I will accept that proof, otherwise, it is an estimation or an assumption. Unless you don't believe in infinite precision, that is. But even then, your left one something with a fineinte number of 9's that don't converge to a 1. Doing loop-de-loops with infinities, a reality in which humans don't and can't inhabit, is trying to abstract away the real problem...the same problem that Zeno proposed long, long ago.

@charliem No, you are wrong.

9*(1/10) + 9*(1/10)^2 + 9*(1/10)^3 + ...

So you don't mind when governmental bodies show preference or reverence to certain religions. That's cool, but you don't have to distract from the real subject by ranting about PC crap and whiny atheist bitches being offended - since that has absolutely nothing to do with it.

I stand by my previous statement. It's STUPID EASY to keep religion outside of schools and where it belongs.

So, your argument is that by leading the graduating class in a prayer, they weren't showing a preference towards the god they were praying to, over the numerous other religions they could have been honoring?
hmmm... yeah, that makes no sense at all.
It's not hard to keep religion out of schools. It's simple. Easy as hell. And the best move, in ALL cases.

It's really quite simple: Schools should not show preference to any religion. Period. That's what this principal just did. Whether or not there's a majority of people wanting to pray has absolutely nothing to do with it.
I hope they get sued.
>> ^longde:
Bullies? I don't think so. What's the big deal either way? If the majority of the students want to take a minute out of their ceremony and pray, so what? Let those fools pray. Noone has to participate. How are they hurting anyone to say a few religious words aloud?
If anyone is a bully, it's the kid who filed a lawsuit to defy them the right to pray. Now that is troll behavior. I am glad they defied the injunction.


Preference? Nobody who was christian got a better grade...they got a minute to do a prayer. News flash people are different and they get treated differently.


I'm sick of this PC shit. Everyone acts like they deserve things like never to be offended. If you don't like something don't participate, same with TV change the damn channel. It's completely narcissistic for you to say that because I'm an atheist everyone has to stop what they're doing and take me into account.
It's a fucking graduation, it's completely voluntary, I didn't even go to mine. So quit being a whiny little bitch and thinking that the whole world revolves around you. I'm an atheist too but I'm not gonna put up with whiny fucking atheists crying about unequal treatment, live under slavery and then come talk to me.
