Kwaanza cookies perhaps?Baiting the hook...

Now why would a white woman want Kwanzaa cookies?

This sounds like something right out of an 80s punk song (actually, more of a rant with guitars), "Institutionalized" by Suicidal Tendencies. I bet I know what she wanted to drink with that cookie...

"All I wanted was a Pepsi...just one Pepsi...AND SHE WOULDN'T GIVE IT TO ME!..."

A woman who couldn't have the cookie she craved is behind bars for attacking an employee at a shopping mall cookie stand

What a crumb-y thing to do.

I thought I was going to see a brawl in the G Street Fabric store the other day. The lady cutting the fabric appeared arabic and the uppity woman ordering several things cut and then complaining and changing her mind appeared to be from Pakistan or India. It was tense in there until the manager came in to break things up.

Sick of women using PMS and other ailments as excuses for outrageous and unacceptable behavior. It casts all women in a bad light.

Women do NOT suffer from PMS, men do.

Belleville Woman Jailed For Alleged Cookie Attack

Employee's Glasses Broken In Scuffle

Posted: 10:09 a.m. EST December 27, 2002
Updated: 8:10 p.m. EST December 27, 2002

A Belleville woman who couldn't have the cookie she craved is behind bars for attacking an employee at a shopping mall cookie stand, police said Thursday. Laura Smith

"She became enraged that they didn't have the cookie she wanted to consume," said Ann Arbor police Sgt. Andrew Zazula.

The clash happened at Briarwood Mall about 7:30 p.m. Thursday.

Laura Smith, 25, (pictured, left) "exchanged words" with the 20-year-old clerk, picked up a two-pound box of tissue wrappers and hurled it at the clerk, Zazula said.

The box struck the clerk in the face, he said, breaking her glasses.

Smith then went around the counter and reportedly punched the clerk. Police say the clerk is pregnant, but the attack caused no major injuries to her or her unborn baby.

Smith spent the night in Washtenaw County Jail and is now facing an assault and battery charge, Local 4 reported. Zazula said she had been complaining about being jailed over the confrontation but that she had been cooperating.

Smith faces up to 93 days in jail on the charges.

According to reports, Smith was looking for a white chocolate macadamia nut cookie.

Was it a Kwanzaa cookie?

Am I missing something here? I thought the woman was unidentified.

That would be racial profiling.

That is racial profiling.

Gee, lady, try the oatmeal or a gingerbread man for a change. No need to go around hitting people.

(1) See post # 51.
(2) FReepers know! Haven't graduated from FReeper school yet? When the culprit is unidentified, or the culprit's race is unidentified by our objective media, it means what? ____________ (fill in the blank.)
(3) This type of behaviour has nothing to do with race and everything to do with social class: trash is trash!

Clear yet?

As per Paul Harvey, "Now you know the rest of the story."

I do like to post pics that go with stories, I'll search the 'net looking for that little tidbit that adds so much to some stories.

I love your "screen name". As you no doubt know, "Alan Smithee" is a revered name in Hollywood.

Police say the clerk is pregnant, but the attack caused no major injuries to her or her unborn baby.

Translation: The clerk does not belong to a protected minority class, therefore we don't care about her, just the perpetrator she victimized.
