A note, I recently discovered my co-worker decided to join these forums, and his name is Shmuggly. This happened when he was working and I was in the mall looking for Christmas consumerism to leech upon. We saw everything.
I have no idea where this came from. It was out of the blue, and I'm still scratching my head over it.
Da shmugs was working the till with my boss and the AM when some guys started shouting. And shouting. and shouting some more. Security was called to diffuse the situation.
Just as the officer shows up, the punches start flying. The fight lasts all of a few seconds, in which a rack of tees on a nearby clothes booth is knocked over.
And get this: Somewhere in the melee, a child was unlucky enough to get hit by a wayward punch! The mother was livid, as she should be, but the kid was ok. Thank goodness. Seriously, this isn't why you fight in a crowded public place.
Now, one of the men was a perfect picture for a wifebeater mugshot. The other, a teenager in a sweatshirt. Apparently the instigator was the WifeBeater, but only because the teenager had "wealthy parents" and was "Flaunting it in front of people who had to work for their money."
Seriously? I can understand the annoyance of someone waving money around (Which he wasn't) and bragging about his big daddy-D's six figure annual to his main squeeze. (Which he wasn't either) That's not something to throw a punch over, even if when you confront him he's saying "Bring it, bro!" Even if the teen's being an arrogant buttmunch, you still keep your head and don't start a fight!
How do I know this? After the wifebeater was escorted out and the guard departed, he comes and buys cigarettes from Shmugs! And he spouts the above nonsense to us as if it's not his fault the fight was started!
And the best part about this? The wifebeater actually did punch a child! And apart from a screaming from the mother, nothing happened! I don't know what security did, but today it wasn't their jobs. Maybe it was too busy for them.
