PLEASE EXPLAIN THIS!

by seasoned Posted: 14 years ago 10 replies

I have NEVER reacted this way, and can't understand why ANYONE would! Apparently it is the latest riot to happen in the US. People have torn doors off of hinges! One guy will apparently go to jail because he shot his gun to get everyone to take cover. When they did, he moved up in line!

So WHAT caused this? That is what I would like to know BUT, from what I gather, there were shoes that I guess were tauted as being MAGIC. But people couldn't buy THEM anymore. Yep, they COULDN'T buy them for maybe 14 years, until basically this morning. Yeah, you heard me, this morning! And NOW, they are acting like they are starving lions, and this is the only meat left on the planet. To quote a person at the end of this story:

Steve, In all my life I've never came up with a satisfactory explanation for willful stupidity.
