Dispute Over Line at Food Stamp Office Turns Into an All-Out Brawl

A brawl erupted at a food stamp office in East St. Louis, Ill., on Tuesday after an argument over a spot in line took a turn for the worse.

One bystander managed to record the entire ordeal [warning: coarse language]:

As the above video shows, it took security officers several minutes to separate the women and restore order.

“It’s just been cool, everybody standing in line, doing what they do, trying to get their stamps, trying to get, you know, whatever they’re trying to get. It’s never been like this in there,†Detria Graves told the FOX news affiliate in St. Louis.

According to the FOX report, one of the women involved in the fight wanted to use a pair of scissors as a weapon. Thankfully, the security guard prevented that from happening.

“Definitely something needs to be done, it’s ridiculous,” said DeShanea Stevenson. “They just do that all the time, at the aid office. That’s what happens. It’s like nobody really cares.’

“If I had my son with me, I’d be mad. I’d be very upset. No telling what’s going on. You never know what people have on them. You never know what could happen. Bullets don’t have names on them,” she added.

No serious injuries have been reported and no arrests have been made.

Final Thought: Remember how they mocked and sneered at former Speaker Newt Gingrich for saying we should focus on providing people with jobs and free them from government dependency?

Clearly, Gingrich was talking like a crazy person.

      Similar to “Don’t feed the bears”. They become dependent on free food and handouts and forget how to hunt for themselves. Same thing with humans. Give them a fish and they eat for a day. Teach them to fish and they eat for a lifetime.

      Fun to make fun of I know, I wanted to but then I thought about this but on a scale large enough to cause some real damage. I don’t think anyone really wants to see our countrymen ( and women ) as slaves to the gov’t. standing in a breadline or maybe kneeling…..Overloading the system as outlined by Beck seems to be just around the corner. I am prepared for some bad times but how bad and for how long????? Could get real ugly….

      Many countries on the African-Continnent have been ruined be sponging offa the unregulated or accounting-for of “help” form taxmoney. They quit fixing their own problems and lost all accountabillity of where the money was spent. All the dictators kept the money and left their own people desttitute! This insures the conttinuation of the sam, with no real-help (hand-up!) on their horrizon!! They also have lost the need for growing their own food and being self-sufficcient! This would lessen the need for having a “KING”/Dictator…since they would no-longer “need” his “help”.

      This is anecdotal, but I’ve observed this at least 2 or 3 dozen times in my lifetime, of people buying junk food and other highly fattening items with their foodstamps. In fact, I don’t think one would observe someone buying more soda and dorritos in a single shopping session than a shopper paying with food stamps.

      Rationale sense might tell you that if you need government subsidies to literally survive and not die (because you will not survive and you will die without food) that you might want to put such resource to good use. But then again, takers aren’t the modest sort these days. They’re likely to punch you square in the face whenever you call them out on their chaotic and irratic choices and behaviors. The video is a good case in point.

      More poverty.
      The food stamp program is full of corruption. I’ll bet you could stand outside that office and
      buy EBT cards for fifty cents on the dollar all day long. Then, the seller has cash for booze and drugs.
      You have a $200 food card you paid $100 for. The only person getting screwed is the taxpayer.

Lincoln was shipping the Africans out of America and only allowing the black Americans to stay. What Booth did was stop Lincoln from getting exactly the people in this video ancestors out of America.

      We can always pull ourselves up by our bootstraps if we go to school, learn any trade and work yourself up the ladder to live the American Dream. Staying on welfare & food stamps throughout each generation is hardly the American Dream. I feel sorry for these peoples lack of ambition.

      SUPAH_DOPAH, So, what is wrong with Alabama? I’ve lived in California, New York, Florida, North Carolina, a couple of nations in Europe, and I now live in Alabama. There is a reason people are fleeing a couple of the states that I just mentioned, and good one at that. BTW, I didn’t flee North Carolina. After being stationed at Ft Bragg so long the Army transferred me overseas. People are friendlier here when compared to California, and NY. And, before you attempt to say it, I saw more racism in New York than here. For that matter, in New Jersey too.

      @Rajjingadsen…. Supah-Patriot = prog = liar. Of course she/he/it is lying. Progs are too lazy to research these outrageous notions, so they put them out there hoping we are just as lazy. Fact is Jim Crow laws were declared unconstitutional beginning in 1954 . Generally all segregation and discrimination was outlawed by 1965. Supah patriot is a good little Obot , if you can’t argue using facts, just lie.

      More Caucasians in the United States generally; therefore, more Caucasians on welfare. More African-Americans in some neighborhoods; therefore, more African-Americans in offices like this one.

    I agree with RANGER1965, this is nothing.

    I predict the kenyan and his socialist regime will grant amnesty to at least 20,000,000 felon-citizens, and soon. Maybe by 01 May. Regardless, it is going to happen. Then, just watch and see the flood of new welfare grabbers, and cheats; the celebrating of a new class of Americanos (et al) crime increasing, because they are free to do, then, what ever they want and get even more financial help from taxpayers, than they now already do. Thanks to you fool liberals this will drag you down as well. Then, when 0bama’s-war begins you libs will have a target on you back just like the rest of us.

    Only God can fix America, now.

    No, no no don’t you stand between me and my food stamps. Look at all those Obama voters eating off the taxpayers dime. I understand if they can’t find a job and need temporary help. But come on, to live your entire life getting food stamps is just got to stop. We must get Obama out of office now. He is bringing Americans down to third-world level. Blacks think they are poor now, wait until Obama is through.

    I am close to that situation myself. I only work PT, but I have savings so have not used Food Stamps yet. I am seriously considering it, if I can not find another PT job. I also may have to rent or sell my home at a loss. At 61 I am having a hard time finding another job because I can’t stand on my feet all day any longer. I also have serious sinus issues, so can’t work around fast food places. Customers don’t want a food worker coughing on their food as it is cooked. I’ve looked for office work, but most of it is FT. Maybe with Obamacareless, companies will start to hire PT workers.

      Take your savings out of the bank and Save it for emergencies. Go get your piece of the pie. You can have my tax money. Don’t let yourself get fully dependent on the government or you will be up the creek without a paddle. Rent a room out of your house now before your get short of cash. Maybe someone else on parttime work needs an affordable place to rent.

    Notice that not one person, including the children, seems affected by the chaos.
    These are the same people that will be rioting and thieving when our economy collapses and Obama doesn’t have any more money to give them.
    And Obama wants to take my guns?

    Ruh-roh, Shaggy, time to ban scissors. Scissor nuts are running amok and are going to kill everybody. People simply cannot be trusted with scissors in their possession. You don’t need scissors to apply for food stamps. All scissors must be registered and tracked. What’s wrong with you? Are you in favor of killing children with scissors? Evil wing nuts…

      Wait till the money runs out, and there is nobody left to tax! These mini-riots are a microcosm of the events yet to unfold. Preparation should be a priority to all who care about securing the health and well-being of themselves and their family members. A civilized society is bound by laws. Lawlessness among these taker cretins is prevalent. The social/welfare payments are the low hanging fruit the pandering politicians use to satisfy this base. When there is nothing left to give these folks, society breaks down, and they come after those whom they believe are responsible for their current position in life.

      RightWing,

      Yes it is in the Bible:
      6 Now we are giving ​YOU​ orders, brothers, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, to withdraw from every brother walking disorderly and not according to the tradition ​YOU​ received from us.7For ​YOU​ yourselves know the way ​YOU​ ought to imitate us, because we did not behave disorderly among ​YOU8nor did we eat food from anyone free. To the contrary, by labor and toil night and day we were working so as not to impose an expensive burden upon any one of ​YOU.9Not that we do not have authority, but in order that we might offer ourselves as an example to ​YOU​ to imitate us.10In fact, also, when we were with ​YOU, we used to give ​YOU​ this order: “If anyone does not want to work, neither let him eat.â€11For we hear certain ones are walking disorderly among ​YOU, not working at all but meddling with what does not concern them.12To such persons we give the order and exhortation in [the] Lord Jesus Christ that by working with quietness they should eat food they themselves earn. (2 Thessalonians 3:6-12)

      You’re hiring? Maybe if we removed some of the red tape that prevents people from hiring each other or paying for each other’s goods and services, some of the people in that food stamp line would be working.

      The answer is really simple. We redefine rich to mean anyone making over… $50,000, and tax them at 95%. We take that money and give it to the poor. They can then buy more crack and pot thus giving us a better economy. Hey! Problems solved, & I don’t even have a coolege degree.
