A fight between a fast food employee and a customer turned deadly in west Tennessee on Monday night when police say the guest shot a female worker after a reported argument.
The fatal shooting took place just before 9:10 p.m. at a Church's Chicken in Memphis, officials said.
"at a Church's Chicken in Memphis,"
ReplyDeleteAnd that's all I need to know
Miguel, thats a big 10-4. don't even stop in Memphis. anywhere, for any reason. gas up well before you get there and don't leave the interstate until you cross the state lines. trust me on this one.

ReplyDeleteWhen was it decreed "we shall kneel at the altar of The Noble Savage" and discard civility?
ReplyDeleteWhat would the likes of Booker T. Washington or Fredrick Douglass have to say about it?
I imagine their remarks would be something akin to "nigga, please!"
DeleteIt does make me wonder if functional black people (outliers though they are) ever become embarrassed or self conscious over their racial compatriots who are always fucking up in such stupid ways.
I once observed (and wish I had video of the incident, it was so shockingly funny) of a discreet gay guy middle manager type I worked with in a retail store (a part time high school job for me) go up to an outrageously flamboyant poofter and say "will you stop acting like such a faggot? You're making us all look bad."
I'd like to know if black people who actually have their shit together ever experience a moment like that. I've never seen it happen personally, but figure at some point it has to wear on at least a few of them, to be tainted by the association with their more typical brethren. Then again, maybe they just aren't wired that way. Hell if I know.
I shudder to think what those men would have to say.

ReplyDeleteMemphis-- Tennessee's version of Detroit
ReplyDelete(and I live in East Tn)
The Churches Chicken that i used to go to was in detroit, it was scary enough that i wouldnt go there at night.
DeleteMemphis, scary city that at one time was NOT a shithole. That changed years ago.
ReplyDeleteThis murder exemplifies how far the city has fallen as senseless murders increase.
Detroit wasn't always a shithole either - especially before the migration north during WWII. Then they took over.

ReplyDeleteAaaah, good ol Memphrica.
ReplyDeleteWhen the lovely bride and I left there, it was still a fun town.
We detour up and around Dyersburg anymore just avoid it now. Time and distance are great security, as is a G17 with a +5 mag baseplate. You know, for the just in case.
