Slap Down at The Supermarket....Session Two
   


......Well if you keep your ears open you just never know what kind of crap will spew from peoples moth while in the check out line...it never ceases to amaze me..


Just about an hour ago a young women about 24-25 was talking to her friend while going through the check out and being critical about Obama saying he has done a bad job and this country is going down hill quick with no hope at all of a recovery..this statement was made after one of the women had listen to Beck and Rush earlier today

Well I went through the checkout and waking to my car at the same time they were walking away from the Starbucks kiosk after getting their brew... I just couldn't help myself so I just came out and said excuse me..I couldn't help but overhear your critical statement about Obama...they kinda flinched and looked surprised that someone was listening...so I asked them if they voted for the other team in 2008...yes!!one of them said... so I said what solutions/programs did they offer and then asked what solutions do Beck and Rush offer up to help America on the path of healing????

One of women raised her voice high enough to have had store customers around her hear her say the following...." I FIND IT CREEPY THAT YOU WERE LISTENING TO MY PRIVATE CONVERSATION WITH MY FRIEND" I said WELL!! this is a public location isn't it???...It became so quiet you could hear a pin drop....I said I not only find it creepy but I find it scary that many people form opinions and thoughts based on statements made by BLOWHOLES on the radio/tv who don't even hold degrees in journalism and those same people never offer up solution either....Just MORE Division!!!!!

I walked away..

1. The wing nuts don't like to be called out do they? I always
   
challenge people when I hear them criticizing Pres. Obama. They have no explanations/solutions, just as you experienced. Maybe it helps them to realize how ignorant they are. One can only hope.


Now who exactly in this story got slapped down? and who got called out and didn't like it?  So much so that they had to share online with their friends??

This one may be true, except for the stuff after the poster was called creepy.

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

I am in a a lot of check out lines and if i am with a friend (most are conservatives) we openly mock the Magic Negro, never once have I heard a peep from anyone in line. Sure wish a real life DUmmie would say something  :lmao:
"You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."

12. It's scary for females to be remonstrated by strange men
 I'm assuming RSmith is male because of the account of how the women responded. "Creepy" is the indicative word.

But he doesn't back down.  STFU is his new mantra.  He thinks anybody anywhere is fair game, even people on their cell phones.  I hope he ends up getting his clock cleaned.

I don't know if it's happened to others before or not....

but I too would think it pretty creepy if someone came up to me a few minutes later and questioned what I had said to a friend.

I probably wouldn't be very ...um....nice?  I would probably just add.... :fuelfire:

And if I were PARTICULARLY pissed off at Obama that day, I'd raise a stink.  "This man is stalking and accosting me!"   Register a complaint with the manager.  Be a real bitch.

Oh and a hey "Loonie Toon", Beck and Rush offer solutions every frikkin' day! Perhaps you oughta watch or listen and get some semblance of an education before you look completely ignorant!

Oh wait, you already do!

And if you butt into my conversations you won't like the outcome!

When I was at the eye doctor a couple of months ago I was sitting in the dilating room waiting for my eyes to fully dilate. There were two women who weren't with each other waiting for their eyes to dilate.  They were talking about macular degeneration. One lady was recently diagnosed with it and the other had had it for awhile. The one who had it for a few years blamed Bush. She said if Bush hadn't stopped stem cell research that it would be cured by now.

I didn't say anything and I couldn't tell what the other lady thought. I could have gotten into an agrument with the anti-Bush lady but what is the point?  By the way, that was pretty much the only time I have ever heard a stranger discuss Bush except when we were in New York and there were a bunch of people protesting.  I don't know how these DUers seem to run into all of these people who voice their opinion while waiting in line at the grocery store....it always seems to be in the grocery store doesn't it?

At this point I regard a degree in journalism as somewhere between meaning nothing in particular and being an actual contra-indicator of reliability.

Most of the time when I see someone talking to a friend in a checkout line , they are talking in low voices, and I would have to move closer to hear them. I know my wife and I all speak quietly while standing in line.  For someone to overhear a conversation, they would have to be trying to do so. This DUmmie probably heard "Obaama" and deliberately eavesdropped.

Sounds about right... creepy stalker weirdo.  Whenever I hear two people talking in the checkout line, I ignore it because IT'S NONE OF MY BUSINESS.

Good luck convincing a liberal to do likewise.

If I remember correctly rsmith had a similar checkout incident a few weeks ago.

How much do you want to bet the rsmith works bagging groceries at the local supermarket.
25 years ago we had Ronald Reagan, Johnny Cash and Bob Hope.  Now we have Obama, no hope and no cash.

That's totally a bouncy!

I never hear political talk in the grocery store, heck people are in such a rush I hear no talk between customers, and even if this story was true, which I doubt, this guy totally came off as a stalker.

3. Do you think you're helping Obama by 'challenging' people for speaking their opinions?
   Odd. I'd be creeped out if some perfect stranger approached me to instruct me.

2. RSmith your approach was creepy,
   They have a right to their opinions as you have a right to yours.

Some of us who don't listen to Rush or Beck fear this country is in serious trouble and fear a lack of recovery.

And we despair for the people and the environment in The Gulf states, too. The President is at the top, he said he was responsible. Remeber the speech?

Thank You!

...and one day there will probably be a real slap down at the supermarket, and you won't walk away.

Everyone has a right to their opinion. The fact you don't agree, doesn't give you carte blanche to be rude.
