I thought Megyn Kelly was in New York. Nice of the lady to be so very thoughtful of her fellow shoppers as to provide them nourishment.

“Woman Attacks Fellow Black Friday Shoppers With Pepper Spray At Wal Mart”

When will this Black Friday on Black Friday crime stop?

Not that the two incidents are related at all, or tied together in any way, shape or form – but since you included it in your article, the following is an exerpt from newsbusters:

“As Occupy-loving media continue to express outrage over protesters getting pepper-sprayed by campus police officers at the University of California at Davis last week, a surprising admission by one of the attendees was uncovered in an interview Democracy Now!’s Amy Goodman did Monday.
One of the pepper-sprayed students told Goodman, “We had encircled them [campus police], and they were trying to leave, and they were trying to clear a path. And so, we sat down, linked arms, and said that if they wanted to clear the path, they would have to go through us” (video follows with transcript and commentary):

Just wanting to put that fact on the table.

Saturday, Gloves.

REDACTION/REVISION ORDERMinistry of Truth  orders the following revisions: ”Walmart shoppers clashed Friday, and pepper spray was used to disperse crowds”.  Nobody was injured or hurt; they were “dispersed”. Nobody was assaulted; it was a “clash”.  We must maintain consistency with wording regarding use of pepper spray.

…Black Friday Shopping Rage come early at Wal Mart?

Still, according to Megyn Kelly, it’s just a vegetable oil (Pepper Spray) by product and no real harmful affects.

No big deal then…

nothing news busters says is factual or true.. ever . just another right wing extremist hack site

good try though.. pics of the incident speak the truth

Half the people were waiting in line to get their copy of the new Andy Williams album

” A Lyin’ A**  B***h Christmas”.

It beats the hell out of a  cudgel, baton, truncheon, nightstick or bludgeon across the side of the head. If you encircle a group of cops, expect to suffer the consequences.

I don’t know what that anchor is talking about.  I can’t shop at place with a violent logo like Target .

You mean its not a food by product?  What is it then?

Have you ever been pepper sprayed?  I have.  Care to discuss its effects?

That is confirmed by a video which the media chooses not to show.

It’s PC gone mad when you can’t pepper spray 20 people in the name of amazing bargains without some do-gooder telling you that you’re under arrest.

‘…If you encircle a group of cops, expect to suffer the consequences.’

…You’re very funny!

As far as the news reports and the video suggest those kids at their UC were sitting down in what looks suspiciously like a Peaceful ‘Sit In’ Protest when Lt Pike decided to get excessive with his Pepper Spray.

Sadly, the Police involved are now paying the ‘consequences,’ for their trigger happy responses.

Is pepper spraying is now the norm in the USA?
Gee, I wonder where she got that idea?

She even trolls on holiday weekends.  Sad life you lead.

The Black Friday craziness is one of the worst Holiday traditions I can think of. I worked in retail a long time and saw it get increasingly worse as major companies competed to slash prices and open early.

I kept hoping some company would promote stopping the craziness and spread the bargains out, not open at crazy hours. People acting crazy to save a few bucks. totally unnecessary.

Thank you for that, somewhat meaningless stream of questions.

Let me direct you to this somewhat more enlightening article quoting the surprisingly, irritated inventor (Kamran Loghman) of the ‘Pepper Spray.’

‘The criticism over UC Davis’ police dousing non-violent protesters with pepper spray has extended to the man who invented the crowd-control device.

Kamran Loghman helped develop pepper spray into a weapons-grade material while working with the Federal Bureau of Investigation in the 1980s. After seeing how his invention was used against student demonstrators in Davis, Loghman said police violated his original intent.’

How surprising and yet not…

Like a typical liberal JohnJGay supports cop killers and wished that those honorable police officers were killed.  He would applaud the next cop killer celebration at the White House.

I hope all you Black Friday shoppers got your zombie vaccine. 

‘Like a typical liberal JohnJGay supports cop killers and wished that those honorable police officers were killed.  He would applaud the next cop killer celebration at the White House.’

…What a nonsensical and rather pathetically meagre diatribe. 

It excels your usual ‘OSux’ standards of homophobic projection and wanton violence.

…Dare I suggest, it rather obviously pointed in your choice of name.

There is a reason why it is called Black Friday.

That’s stupid.

You have reached the nirvana of political correctness, the zenith! We can only hope that where ever you do shop, you will be pepper sprayed.

“No big deal then…”    EXACTLY!!! Spray yourself and every liberal you know!

‘EXACTLY!!! Spray yourself and every liberal you know!

…Why not let Lt ‘Trigger Happy’ Pike do it for you LED? 

You have a Rupert Murdoch obsession. The correct liberal spelling would be “News Of The WHIRLED”. And please identify the ‘holiday’ by name, in this case it is called Thanksgiving. Holiday in the UK simply means ‘vacation’. Holiday in the USA means politically correct liberal derangement. CAPICHE? Sad birth defected liberal.

I think there is a PC game like that

just marking her territory.

If pepper spraying will control the deranged liberal population it should become the norm! With any luck, some pepper spray will enter your eyes and you wont be able to see your keyboard to type idiotic liberal bullsh it anymore!

Also YouTube as far as I can tell. Damn liberal YouTube.

Don’t taze me bro!

Mortal Kombat? Someone’s still living in the 90′s. 

Well, the leftwing OWS freaks are at it again.

Someone should get out one large can of Raid or Black Flag and spray those Commie fuggs.

I for one love to see leftists run for the hills, being chased by people like me who hate their f___ing guts.

bwahahahaha

projecting again I see.

So funny.

I always hoped to hear that a truck ran over Amy Goodman, backed up to see what it had hit, and ran over her again.

Damn, I would pay to see that. Funny fugging stuff.

“…in what looks suspiciously like a Peaceful ‘Sit In’ Protest.”

No, that’s members of The Tea Party.

The OWS Loserdom is busy crapping, pissing, farting, smoking, fugging, and licking their way to full-on disgust.

You have the peaceful Tea Party, and the violent Leftwing Flea Party, covered with Fleas and Feces.

Now THAT is a contrast for your little mind.

“Unidentified.” Gee, I wonder why?

“It beats the hell out of a  cudgel, baton, truncheon, nightstick or bludgeon across the side of the head.”

Yeah, I miss the days when you could shove a liberal in front of a moving train and all you got was a $10 fine for doing it. Now you have to go to court, you have to clean up the mess, you have to go buy a new wrench or tire iron, you are forced to hear the whines and squeals from their demented family, etc….it is just too much work to really crunch a moronic and imbecilic leftist anymore.

…Any sense or reasoned logic have clearly parted ways, in what, may be left of your mind.

Therefore, I shall quite happily leave you to it Mr Gideon…

And why is that?

The video exists; I don’t know why TC doesn’t link to it.  Facts are facts; you pretend they don’t exist, but alas…they do.

you’ve already outed yourself as a flat out racist on the rev. al thread.  maybe you shouldn’t go there sux.

Ya, that damn liberal media. This is JUST LIKE that video that PROVED that Michele Obama was raving and ranting about “Whitey”, that the media ‘conveniently’ overlooked in 2008, which my neighbor Fred told me this guy he met in a bar this one time somewhere, nice guy, not really much of drinker at all recally, with no reason in the world to lie – Fred had never even met the guy before, never seen him since, doesn’t know his name – said he’d actually seen it on a TV news show some place, couldn’t recall the place or the channel or exactly when, but now no one in the world can seem to find it, so you just know the liberal media got ordered by those Obama thugs to destroy all copies, and everyone, even Drudge, that flaming commie, went along with it, no questions asked, and now there’s even a conspiracy to hide THAT which we know because no one will dare admit it.

You can see it happening right here on this website, all these genuine authentic liberals outing themselves just like you, ASHAMED at themselves for having voted for that privileged Kenyan Marxist Socialist dictator sleeping Lincoln’s bed and making secret deals with his boss Kim Jong Il to take over the New World Order with Hugo Chavez as the head of the World Police to force us all to bend over and just TAKE IT, no questions asked.

Oh yes, I SOOOO love vehicular homicides of Nazi Marxist Socialist Communist lame stream media types, I wish there was a cable channel to watch that 24/7.

Capon, your act is sooo boring…

You can see now the reason for Pike’s casual Pepper Spray incident: it was anticipatory self-defence in case any of those hippies were thinking of going to WalMart on Black Friday, and using his laser-like precision profiling software, officer Pike distinctly detected that contingency.

tommy only tells his side of the story, that’s why he’s considered a hack

The tape was EDITED, isn’t it OBVIOUS, George Soros’ tell-tale fingerprints are all over it, because there’s no way that’s what happened without Obambi having put his boot heel all over the CIA and the FBI to gather up all tapes and burn them before some courageous patriot like Andrew Breitbart got hold of one.

Yeah, they hold those Cop Killer celebrations on a weekly basis now but swear the media to eternal secrecy on penalty of imprisonment or worse, and the media goes along with it no questions asked, so NO ONE ever gets to know about it.

That’s just an assumption by you and your liberal bias: he could be the last surviving member of the Osux tribe that broke off the Trail of Fears and hid themselves in Alabama for all these years.

“The OWS Loserdom is busy crapping, pissing, farting, smoking, fugging, and licking their way to full-on disgust.”
And they have a Junior Occupiers camp to indoctrinate all stray children in how to do all that, and Obama is behind everything, as usual.

Also, government regulations are taking all the fun out of it.

…I sadly, fear you may be right.

Is that out already?

Yeah and that’s exactly why they called those Commies in Russia bullsh-evicts.

Help, we’re being enlightened!

Yeah, try to be reasonable and refer to them by the most respectful terms you can think of, and all tehy do is just take offence and yell “Political Incorrectness”.

now THERE’S a quick and witty answer.  John….give it up, buddy. you’re not even remotely funny

There’s just no room for decent conservatives any more to chase leftists into the hills.

and boot heel? more like stilettos. makes his legs and butt look better, according Foxworthy!

I like when idiots don’t get jokes.

Shoppers = The true 99%
OWS = #@&*&#$     (Sorry it is against the rules of this site to use such words)

A liberal concedes the liberal problem!

What in the hell is wrong with people?Have we really gotten so materialistic that we are willing to harm others just to get our hands on something that has no real importance in our lives?Is it so important to be impressive to a family member or friend through gift giving that the health and well being of strangers has no meaning?

And what does it say that people would be willing to go to these lengths for a gift?What does it say about anyone who would require an impressive gift?

Stories like these are unfortunate reminders of a whole list of things that are wrong with our society.We can only hope that the broadcasting of something like this causes others to give pause before acting in a similar way and take the time to realize what really matters during the holidays.

You just ‘outed yourself’ as either a deranged liberal, a homosexual, a transsexual or all three! The word raaaayciss means nothing anymore. Liberals destroyed it’s definition, thank God. You are easy to recognize in public as you try to clear the pepper spray from your eyes.

I won’t, I prefer pepper spray, it makes you look like a crying liberal!

Liberals don’t tell jokes.

You accidentally just made the first correct recommendation in your entire backward liberal life. CONGRATS!

Rex..you are awesome!

its not even a tradition.

…No doubt.

Mr Intolerant Genius.And if you believe that, you also probably believe in Leprechauns.

Congratulations…

CMON MAN  !!!you wingnuts need to MAN UP….liberal students take pepper spray like champions…hardly a reaction to that FOOD PRODUCT….but you sissies on the other hand crap on yourselves when sprayed….all show and no go is what you hobbits are all about…..OBAMA IS GONNA MOP THE FLOOR WITH YOU SOFT ASS MOFOS

Rogue, read and see the protestor was talking to interviewer Amy Goodman of Democracy Now!!  You can’t handle the truth!!

Hey, I guess she saw it was good enough for the cops to spray innocent kids …

You want a conspiracy to hide??  Obama, Chicago gay club “Man’s Country”,  2 dead(executed) gay choir  guys , friends of Obama- Rev. Wright and his “DLC”  Down Low Club-….

Looking at that picture I’d say the natives are restless.

Psssst, lunch is on you, b*tches!

It’s been sprayed into the cutural zeitgeist.

Monkey see, monkey do.

How strange…

Now it has become popular culture as a artistic post modern description.

…Well, Lt Pike has now synonymous with the infamous Pepper Spray incident…

“Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war, that they might scamper through Walmarts door!”–  Wm. Shakespeare helped with the first bit.

What if you recast it and your the one running?  Stranger things have happened.  Always be careful what you wish for.  Once, the cork is out of the bottle things get unpredictable.  Swords have a way of swinging both ways.  I invoke the slippery (with capsaicin) slope, Sir.

Spray ye not, lest ye also be sprayed.  Indeed.

Imagine Sarah Palin with a canister in dispersal mode captioned, “Spray baby, spray!”  I used to do cartoons in my high schools paper.  Perhaps rightly, many never made it to publication. LOL

Yes sir, and there’s an Alvin and the Chipmonks version out that makes one think of following Richard Cory’s example.

You have a Rupert Murdoch obsession. The correct liberal spelling would
be “News Of The WHIRLED”. And please identify the ‘holiday’ by name, in
this case it is called Thanksgiving. Holiday in the UK simply means
‘vacation’. Holiday in the USA means politically correct liberal
derangement. CAPICHE? Sad birth defected liberal.

Hahaha… MSNBC is flashing sales watchers are hoping for 500 billion in sales this wkend. 2010 Black Friday was only 11 billion.  I don’t think they’ll get to 500 b even without the occupooh’s protesting what they’ll go shopping for when they finish protesting.

The major store chains should be ashamed.  People have been killed in the ritual yearly practice.  There are ways to spread the savings over several days, in house sales over the microphone, etc to cover the excitement of the season.  This was unnecessary and the sprayer should be found and prosecuted.  She was not being attacked,  Pepper spray by the populace is to be used in self defence only.  I don’t need anything bad enough to send a fellow shopper to a medic.  I can get better deals online.

I’m confused.  Megyn Kelly on Fox News dismisses pepper spray as a food stuff, yet the police in California want to charge a woman for assault for using pepper spray.  They way I see it, the woman in Wal-Mart was giving some much needed nourishment to midnight shoppers.  We need more in-depth reporting on this issue.

those kids were not innocent! They were tresspassing!! That is what laws are for fool!!

Wow, you clearly have drank way to much kookaid!  The kids didn’t take it like pros they are pieces of feces! They were breaking the law and got what they deserved. Go read the law, you fool before making such pathetic liberal gibberish!

at this point it is, It has become one, encouraged by greed over taste and sense, on both sides.

Amy Goodman has Che Guevarra pajamas.

Excellent. Love the literary humor. That combines the heights and the ridiculous depths.

Dehumanizing your fellow man is much more vile and repugnant than any collection of bodily functions you deem grotesque.

No wonder you use the name of a Hebrew (Gideon) that ethnically cleansed the indigenous population of Midian.

The cops were ordered to remove them and their tents. If an idiot sits in the middle of Interstate 35 and blocks traffic, the cops will remove them However, in this case, the cops could have used batons and busted testicles. That would really upset you flaming liberals. You believe in law enforcement as long as it does apply to liberals, Reminds ne of Obama and the professor.

You failed to explain why you were sprayed…….

Thye tell lies and the lies are the jokes.

One of the things I like about this site is that many of the posters are very well read people,  on both sides of the political spectrum.  I find I don’t have to “self edit” like I do when I’m speaking to folks in the real world who don’t always share some of my more more specialized interests.  I thought I might have pushed too far in this thread, so thanks for the positive remark.  Sometimes, I troll rather shamelessly for kindred spirits.  It helps transit the shortest distance between two points.

You are most welcome.  The combination of the literary heights of the bard with the contemporary mundane, along with our human failings, was well done.
