Louisville, Kentucky - Tracy Browning, a 38-year-old Louisville woman, was jailed after she allegedly tried to purchase several iPads with a food stamp card, then fled to another location where she tried to make the same transaction.

According to Louisville police, Browning went to the Valley Station Walmart and tried to purchase two iPads with an Electronic Benefit Transfer card. When the transaction was denied, she assaulted a store clerk, pushed another employee to the ground and fled from the store with the merchandise.

Investigators say Browning went to another Walmart in the area a short time later and again attempted to buy several iPads with an EBT card...

They will have to make Iphones and Ipads available through the ObamaPhone system I guess

Gimmee my Obama Ipad!

That’s the most misleading headline I’ve seen so far this year.

This sterling example of welfare-state citizenry doesn’t seem to understand that the device requires a wireless AP or a cellular data plan to access the Internet. Wonder who’s going to pay for that?

Obama Phone

[camle]

no,she was jailled when she tried to run out of the store when her ebt card was declined. that’s shoplifting.

"When the transaction was denied, she assaulted a store clerk, pushed another employee to the ground..."

If only taxpayers reacted the same way to the IRS. After all, as we have seen with the Democrat and RINO sanctioned foreign invasion of the country, if everyone does it it's OK.

She was arrested for assault and leaving with the merchandise. Headline is misleading.

[dinodino]

Gee, let’s see: there are already Federal programs to give free broadband Internet and cellphones to the “poor,” so I guess YOU will be paying for it...

I see a beer summit...

Didn’t have room for the entire headline. Take a look at the link.

Santa gave her EBT-Giftcards and she was just turning them in for iPads....I don’t see a problem here...

maybe she has wifi at home?

[RightOnline]

Ignorant, worthless b**ch.

[Boogieman]

Technically, the headline is correct. It doesn’t say that she was jailed FOR trying to buy the iPads, just that she was jailed AFTER doing so. So, misleading, but not inaccurate.

[Secret Agent Man]

Ten bucks the clerk she assaulted was a white woman.

Didn’t have room for the entire headline. Take a look at the link.

...not to mention the three periods you put after it to let people know that there was more to the story. The crowd is ‘ornery early in ‘13.

I was thinking the same thing. Oh well, the year’s still young. I’m sure the geniuses writing headlines for the MSM will amaze us many times more.

Back in 2006 when I was a supervisor at a Texas Workforce Center, I was giving away free laptops with software and one year of free Internet to our food stamp clients.
