A good guy with a folding chair.



Keep your hands off of my folding chair rights!
But what about those semi-automatic chairs?

To me, the entire incident is totally inexplicable without racism.

If a white official in uniform were there to ask them to move the boat, I bet they would have moved immediately. It's frustrating as all hell to watch the video. The poor co-captain (according to police dept) was pointing at the boat, you could tell he was saying "THAT GIANT BOAT BACK THERE DOCKS HERE" but the ####s wouldn't even turn their heads to look at the giant boat clearly waiting to park. It's unbelievable levels of ####ing idiocy. The people who started this are no doubt incredibly stupid. Not even jokingly stupid, but likely insufficient IQ to even join the US military.

The boat they blocked was carrying all black people.

They knew what they were doing.

Very true, but as much as that is accurate Reggie Gray (chair guy) needs to step forward and turn himself in.

I empathize with lots of different people in this scenario and I despise the racial divide but black or white, right or wrong, one simply cannot crank an elderly lady in the mind with a folding chair and shirk the consequences.

This is not the Kingdom of Vince McMahon where folding-chair-related assaults are commonplace and to just be thankful there wasnt a folding catering table nearby.

Maybe somebody threw chalk into the eyes of the police and he got away?

In the Kingdom of Vince McMahon they would have backed a concrete truck up to the small boat and filled it up! That would have been pretty awesome....

It’s when someone is trying to sound profound or insightful but is actually coming off as nonsensical or a bit stupid.

Or, in Wastedyouth’s eyes, anyone who doesn’t take him seriously and posts Chris De Burgh videos instead.

It's a solid idea, but I think it would have played out much more like the HHH betrayal storyline:

- Police chief brings white family up on stage for "public apology" following brawl incident

- Right after delivering a cringy, over the top and obviously sarcastic apology, the police chief makes like he's about to pass the microphone over to the dad, but instead kicks him in the junk and stunners him.

- then, as the wife and kids gasp and scream in fury, the boat is dropped from the roof to smash into the ground in front of them!

- Finally, as the white family falls to their knees and clutches vainly at their hair gazing upon the ruins of their pleasure craft, in da club starts playing loudly and the og 6 dudes who defended the co-captain run up to the stage chairs in hand...

No one ever prefers sitting on a folding chair anyway. He was a monster to invent those uncomfortable bastards.

To me folding chairs say "you're being temporarily tolerated and not really welcome to stay here. Here's an unsafe device,"
