At the end of the video the announcer said the woman was now in police custody. I wonder what the rest of the story is?

"I find this story fascinating since all the store shoppers got so upset and trashed the store when they realized they weren’t getting free stuff."

It's not interesting. You think these are normal Americans of yonder but they are 21st century Americans belonging to a certain, "ahem," race.

Think looting in New Orleans in 2005.

This is clearly Obama’s fault. IMO

What happens when Obama goes?

Store managers told 10TV News that she paid for roughly $5,000 in merchandise with a debit card before her card's limit was reached. When shoppers learned the merchandise would not be paid for, some customers trashed the store.

Makes you wonder whether she was a conservative trying to make a very timely point to a few legislators in Washington....

Brainwashing BLACK America is more to the point.

The sadsack philosophy of Marxists translated in Black American and distilled into Juneteenthism under DuBois and later inheriting eras of black intelligentsia — the Harlem Renaissance and streams deriving from — joined by the Soviet era American Communists and academics, highly developed and engineered as if a Ford assembly line by Alinsky and such “community organizers” in Chicago and Harlem, oppressed upon the people by the teaching of horrendous social mores and spirit debasing, family destroying welfare programs has left the Black American culture extremely vulnerable to such brainwashing.

re: It’s getting harder to find people who, on principle, believe they are responsible for their own fate

We have a substantial number of families in our country where there has been no resident father or two or three generations and no child in the family has ever known a relative with a job. Absolutely every need of these families is provided for by government programs who have become, in effect, the father in the family. Food, rent, medical care, etc., all provided by a variety of federal, state and local government.

It’s hard to imagine any child growing up in that climate coming away with any attitude in life other than one of entitlement.

We were making some headway in reversing this at one point, however, slowly but surely the system is turning back the gains made by welfare reform.

I have had contact with some of offspring of these families and they have been taught from birth that none of the ills that have befallen them are their fault. And in some cases that the fault lies with the white man.

Unless you are exposed to the people in this group it is impossible to grasp just how ingrained their sense of entitlement is and the resentment they have for those they’ve been told since birth are responsible for their problems.

I was more of the thought that she stole someone's debit card.

Not fascinating - expected. An entire class of people destroying America.

I just read the article and looked at the pics.

Is it politically incorrect of me to notice that there's not a whole lot of Scandinavians there?

Also, that the "desperate" people lining up, are all able to afford the cell phones that they're talking on?

The store closed early so that workers could clean up. Some shoppers said they had carts filled with merchandise. When shoppers learned the merchandise would not be paid for, some customers trashed the store.

phony lottery "winner" = Obama
grabby shoppers = welfare mentality
trashed store = America

Hmmm... let me lay it out.

The folks that needed charity might have asked for it if their pride allowed,
and those that didn’t need it would stand next to the woman,
multiplying her charity, writing checks themselves?

Maybe?

If these people were so “desperate” what were they doing in the store anyway? If the one woman couldn’t pay her rent how or why is she buying new clothes?

Sounds like mania phase of a manic/depressive to me.. You don’t spend 5,000 on your credit card up front for a hoax.

I just looked at the slide show. I hope they are carrying the larger sizes at Burlington. America is the only country where the “poor” are fat.
