'White Ninja' Steals Car, Smashes Into Greensboro Apple Store

This is why ordinary people shouldn't attempt to be ninjas.
This non-ninja made 3 vital mistakes
1. There were witnesses that saw the ninja. Everyone knows that the only time that you see a ninja is right before you die.
2. Said witnesses are still alive, enough said.
3. Driving a car into an Apple Store? Really? Could you be any more un-ninja?
If this had been a true ninja the story would have read something like...
MyFOX8.com reports that a car was mysteriously thrown into Apple's Friendly Center retail store in Greensboro, North Carolina this morning. All the store staff and customers were slain in what appears to be a brutal ninja attack. One store employee was barely alive when the police arrived on the scene and is said to have whispered the words "white ninja" before he died.
HAHAHAHA I just laughed out very loudly at my office while reading this. Thanks for the great humor and if this were a white ninja I would agree completely with your Myfox8.com report!
This is clearly an aggravated response from the Ninja community due to the start of a new season of Whale Wars tonight...
I went by the store this morning - it's all so surreal! I wonder how long it will take for the store to open again. It can't be easy to replace those large panes of glass very quickly.
Hmm... white iPad, finally the release of the white iPhone, and now a white ninja...
This is no coincidence!

Lol I wish I could put that in my sig
I'm guessing...
Don't know if anyone said this yet... My bet is that it was a former employee, based on mine and many friends' experience in Apple Retail.

Tomorrow's comic: "White Ninja crashes a stolen car into an Apple store."
edit: actually, the way they title their comics, this would probably be more like "White Ninja takes a drive."

Likely one of the posters on these forums is the culprit - biggest bunch of Apple haters on the planet...

Must have been a Chris Farley type white ninja!

This is one of those perfect stupid criminals stories though for Jay Leno.
I mean, first off, he destroyed a car that would most likely be more valuable than anything he could have run off with on foot even as a Ninja! LOL
I love the Ninja angle though, security cameras won't be able to identify him, but DOH!
HE LEFT THE CAR WHICH IS PROBABLY LICENSED TO HIM! TOO FUNNY!
Gotta love it.
As dumb as the whole thing sounds, none of your points are valid. 2/3 MacBook Pros would easily be worth more than a 90s Accord and you could at least fit five or six of those in a bookbag. And something tells me he didn't have time to go to the DMV and wait in line to get the car registered in his name between stealing it and crashing through the front door of the Apple store so I think he's good there.
This would actually make more sense if it happened in Norway around January.
Maybe it was a black ninja who was friends with Fei Lam?
