MIAMI (Reuters) - A fight broke out on a Florida bus when news of Michael Jackson's death sparked debate over whether he should be remembered as a great musical talent, and one passenger was charged with assault, police said on Friday.

The bus was moving through the city of North Lauderdale on Thursday when passenger James Kiernan received a text message about Jackson's death on his cell phone, and he read it aloud on the bus, the Broward County Sheriff's Department said.

The unidentified bus driver opined that "Michael Jackson should have been in jail long ago," prompting Kiernan, 60, to retort that "the world just lost a great musical talent," the police report said.

It said the last remark enraged another passenger, Henry Wideman, who started a swearing match with Kiernan, then pulled out a knife and chased Kiernan down the aisle with it. ...

Oh come now.  It's not that bad.  Folks have opinions.  They differ.  No one was chased by a knife around a thread.

We are all on this bus together.   :innocent:

Without beans, chili is a very average spicy stew. When the beans are added, it becomes chili.

Then why does Wolf Brand sell cans labeled "Chili" and cans labeled "Chili WITH BEANS"?

Would not logic dictate the cans should be labeled "Chili" and "Chili WITHOUT BEANS"?

Do you expect beans on your Chili Dogs? 

Should I be including beans in my World Famous Chili-Mac causing it to include two starches?

"Chili without beans" is one of those great mysteries, like "sodium-free bacon" or "non-fat sour cream".

Skyline Chili is the world's finest sauce, but it's not chili.
I am dying for a Skyline four-way just thinking about it.

The "chili debate" gambit is a great way to draw out the closet commies.   :fuelfire:

It must be for the same reason they also have "Chili Con Carne", which, when translated from the Mexican, means "Chili With  Meat".

I guess real Texas chili is just spices and tomato sauce.

We have Vietti down here.  It's not bad.

Hm, I just noticed you're in my neck of the woods. 

I bet Michael Jackson liked beans in his chili.  Weirdo. :p

Actually, if you look up "no-beaner" in your Funk & Wagnalls, you will find a picture of Michael Jackson.

Unless you are talking about a "bicycle", or a "biennial" election, the prefix "bi" is nearly always synonymous with "homo".
