Police say two men were shot outside a Wilmington, Delaware store Saturday morning while they were camped out waiting for the release of a new Nike Air Jordan sneaker.

The shooting happened around 5:30 a.m. outside the Sneaker Villa store located on the 600 block of North Market Street after an argument reportedly began.

Read some of the comments after the article. Ouch! Telling it like it is. Wonder why m. jordan doesn't pull his name from the shoes. Oh, $$$$$$$$$. And lots of it.

They musta taken a personal day from work, huh?

Priorities!

Wonder if they’d ever put in that kind of effort to actually look for a job?

Oh but I thought they had controlled guns.

Obviously they left guns in the hands of the out of control, undisciplined, unprincipled youth. Deliberately.

You might be a gang banger if:

1. You’re waiting in line for the release of an expensive new sneaker.

2. You’re hunting for rival gang bangers waiting in line for the release of an expensive new sneaker.

Sounds like the making of a hit rap song.

Let me guess. The perps and victims were white, Sarah Palin worshipping, Mitt Romney voting, Glenn Beck listening, Tea Party Dittoheads.

Someone ping me when they fight over a school book or signing up for a class to improve themselves.

They were probably elated they got to move up to notches in the line.

People whose main interest is getting the latest sneakers should not be allowed to vote, and should get no money from the government.

People of an age to camp out for sneakers are likely unable to understand my willing to kill and/or die for the Constitution. It’s a very sad state of affairs.

[rktman]

You mean “get money from us.” don’t you? LOL! And how come MY memorials are still barry-caded? It’s almost like the govt owns all these places. Geez. And here I thought they all belonged to the people.

[rktman]

But they should understand that they are willing to kill or die for some new air jordans. Didiots!

I am sure they were NRA members, the guns were legal, and they all had jobs as productive members of society (do I really need a /sarc tag?

[Uncle Chip]

they were camped out waiting for the release of a new Nike Air Jordan sneaker.

That was their first mistake.

I go camping out for a pair of nice Danner boots, but the Good Boot Fairy never brings them.

What semi-literate goon writes these headlines?

[MeshugeMikey]

Amish!
