Brawl at Apple Store

Yes, the girl at the drive through is bad too, but I believe she was drunk or drugged vs "all" the group of people attacking and trashing the place.

This comes as a real shocker to me, being that Chinese people usually mind their busy, are docile, educated, and polite people. I guess she could not take the abuse any longer and finally went for it.

You're kidding, right? You must be thinking about modern Japan, where for the most part, people don't cause a fuss.

China, on the other hand.... is frequently get-what-you-can-while-you-can.
 
For some strange reason I just started humming the old disco song "Everybody was Kung Fu Fighting"

USA is not and those things happen here too. I think situations like those can happen anywhere you have humans.

Ive seen just as poor living conditions in the states as I have in china.

Apple employees should have cattle prods because anyone who would stand in line for any product need to be zapped. Reminds me of one Futurama show when they mocked apple and sold the eye phone, and all the fools had to rush to get one.

They wouldnt be able to run down the queue whooping and hi fiving properly if they had to carry cattle prods.
 
Government take over is also not the be all and end all. Remember, it is these thugs shown in the Youtube videos that are taken care of by our hard earning tax dollars. We work, they mess around.
 
I have yet to see any fights inside an Apple Store, but it is quite annoying that there is always so much people with no elbow room. And for some reason the place tends to smell like a zoo. I've noticed this in 2 Apple Store in south Florida, so I'm presuming there needs to be better ventilation at the locations.
 
Is it true the Chinese are very rude?

I haven't visited china yet but that's the impression visitors have gotten

Not major cities; could just be cultural
 
When I went to London to buy my Macbook Air, I was in line to buy one, and an older man (probably 50-60's) tried to cut the line, saying he had priority because he had always been an Apple fan and loyal consumer since the beginning and so he had priority above the rest of the people. The Apple employee who was getting the names of the people in line to buy one, in other words, told him to piss off. I laughed hard after that.
 
Mostly happens in Urban Entitlement Cities

I'm originally from New York City and should have been use to seeing fights like this in a bus or elsewhere. But these videos still caught my attention, being that I am living in another state for many years and don't see this type of activity at all anymore. I would presume stuff like this possibly often happens at the New York City Apple Store location. But maybe not, for I usually see educated people buying Apple products.
