The same thing happened in Atlanta where they broke doors and were multiple arrests.

This is an inner city must-have, and there have been reports of chaos across the US.

What a crazy Christmas shopping season.

On Black Friday, people got into fistfights over major price reductions on waffle makers.

Around Black Friday, some woman pepper sprayed other shoppers to get an X-Box.

Now there is mayhem to get sneakers.

Is the veneer of civilization very thin?????

Tennis shoes? Don’t think I’ver ever seen anyone wear Air Jordans on a tennis court. Felony Flyers would probably be more apt.

If people behave like this over stupid $200 sneakers (likely made by slave labor in China for $10.42), imagine what would happen if there were food shortages.

It seems that it all started when the crowd of Air Jordan Buyers found out that the store would not be accepting Food Stamps or Welfare checks for shoe payments. Many in the crowd were overheard saying they are mad at Obama now.

What a crazy Christmas shopping season.

Here's a little Christmas brain cleanser to help counteract these news stories.

And after Christmas you can bet we'll be reading articles of people gunned down for their Air Jordans.

This is what happened here in Indy so a couple thugs could get an X-box.

Three guesses - first two don't count:

And the aftermath:

I honest to God sympathize with the decent blacks.

Fox was showing these videos and there was something oddly similar about all of the participants.
