Get ready for what could be the most incredible video of the year (so far).
Two mothers with out-of-control children were charged with seven misdemeanors between the two of them after they got into a violent confrontation with a security guard at an Atlanta mall. One of the moms ended up getting tased and the video of the incident has gone viral.
Image: CBS Atlanta
Darien Long is the security guard and on-site manager for Atlanta’s Metro Mall. The inner city shopping center is not like the typical suburban shopping mall. Metro Mall has problems with drug dealers and gangs of shoplifters, and people selling stolen merchandise. Mr. Long calmly faces these issues each day. He told a local news report:
“I’m always out numbered, that’s why I have the video camera. I’m always concerned with my safety, but not to the point where I won’t act.”
That is not anymore apparent than in the video posted below, which although it is from an incident that happened in May has just been recently going viral.
Mr. Long says that he was just trying to keep a group of unruly children from going back into the building. In the video, the mothers have a problem with this and the conflict quickly escalates. Initially it involves some rough language being tossed at Long. In addition, the kids, who appear no older than toddlers, join in, hurling “gay” insults at Long.
Image: YouTube video
But it doesn’t end there. One of the women eventually aggressively approaches Long and starts punching him. After enduring several seconds of abuse, Long eventually pulls out his taser and fires. The woman goes stiff as a board and hits the ground — in front of her children — before eventually coming to.
Image: YouTube video
Even after that, a man who appears to be the childrens’ father approaches Long and tries to stage a fight at “6.” Long keeps him at bay by threatening to tase him, too.
You can watch the incredible video below. Content Warning: It has offensive and graphic language throughout the 4:48 video:
Mr. Long’s work is often captured on video and posted online. Witness some of his past interactions with alleged drug dealers and bad guys.
Content Warning: The bad language continues.

He also spoke with a local CBS reporter about the almost daily incidents at the downtown mall:

Feb. 1, 2013 at 3:43pmTo CATTY at 3:20 and her request for “toothless redneck videos”.
Since they occupy a much greater % of population, the Cogent Thinker would expect them to be on the Net in video proportionately more often, n’est ce pas? IS this what we actually FIND on THE NET, NOT subject to the Cherry Picking of Agenda, as you seem to be accusing the Blaze of.
Or do we see that High Melanin Count GangstaHoodin Homies, to NAME the CULTURE, are DISproportionately PRESENT in these INCIDENTS?
Thus are we observing something that can be called a CULTURAL NORM here?
As to the “boy in the bunker”, I don’t know what Ethnicity either the Man or the Boy are. I know the boy is asking for his parents as opposed to hurling curse words and Homosexual aspersion to a Law Enforcement Officer. What are we to make of THAT Cat?
I refer all Criticizers of Culture based Observations here to the work of the 20th Century’s Greatest Philosopher, F. Gump and his seminal Premise: “It IS as it BEHAVES!”
A Flower of Gracious Southern Womanhood these Hos (and where did THAT term originate, Cat?) are not. A MAN of Character and Integrity and VIRTUE, Officer Long IS.
One is Representative of a Specific Sub-Cultural Set of Values, the other is Representative of the Highest Virtues of the Larger Wider Culture.

Feb. 1, 2013 at 4:01pmPRECISELY, RB!
So let us now engage in what Theologian Francis Schaeffer calls “the logical outcome of presuppositions.”
1. What VALUE is there to THE REST OF US in letting the Hos KEEP these “no chance” kids?
2. What Value to the rest of us in PAYING HER to keep them?
3.What Value to the rest of us in ALLOWING HER TO HAVE THEM?
4. If they “have no chance” her bringing them into the World is DE FACTO Child ABUSE, by her and the Babydaddy, WHY should we ENABLE Child Abuse?
On what Cogent and Rational Basis would a TRULY Free and Rational Society NOT HOLD HER and The Babydaddy, ACCOUNTABLE and FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE for every dime these children cost The Public in food, housing, education, health care, EVERYTHING!
She ABUSES her Children and YOUR CHILDREN with EVERY BREATH SHE TAKES.
How are we NOT ENABLING that Abuse?
At MINIMUM the Children should be taken away and raised by someone else for the Public Good, I suggest a Federal Orphanage run by The Marine Corp whose Graduates serve for 3 years.
SHE and the Babydaddy should have all their assets seized to PAY for the child’s expenses on the Public Purse. Further she and the Babydaddy should be in Penal Slavery till all such expenses are paid off. She and the Baby Daddy should be placed on Mandatory Contraception, and upon second offense, Sterilized.
While working off the debt her Toxic Dumping of Children as foisted upon the rest of us, she and babydaddy should have to complete a year long course on P

Feb. 1, 2013 at 4:08pmCertainly true, Gomer.
But is that MAINSTREAM in the (mythical) “white” culture, or is it a Marginalized Sub-Culture?
Is it MAINSTREAM in the Urban Black/Ghetto/Gangstahood Culture or not?
Do we find a DISproportional number of “blacks” in this kind of thing out of relation to their per cent of population?
If we do we are talking CULTURAL VALUES AND NORMS here.
And yeah, some to use the slang ‘White Trailer Trash” Sub-cultures will share Negative Energy Values with other Lawless Sub Cultures like the Gangstahood. That’s the point, IT’S THE CULTURE!

Feb. 1, 2013 at 3:26pmFirst of all kudos to the wonderful security guard for his professionalism and his restraint in handling these criminals.
This display of idiocy and criminality is sad, reprehensible andunfortunatelyy it is all too common.
Why is it racist when whites complain about criminal behavior in A.A. but NOT racist when blacks hurl racial epithets and attack whites? The “hate” crimes that are prosecuted are almost always white against black, but rarely do you see a black on white “hate” crime.
I’m just tired of ALL behavior like this, no matter who it comes from!
We have feminized and infantilized our men and relieved them of all responsibility when it come to taking care of the children that they father, we are legalizing drugs throughout the country, 1 perhaps 2 generations have grown up without fathers in the home, the state automatically provides food, shelter, heat assistance, CELL PHONES, medical and dental care for all pregnant women/women with children, schools can not or will not discipline the children in their care, the entitlement society runs rampant and there is no longer any concept of personal responsibility or any consequences for bad behavior.
Does anyone have any doubts that the children of these so called “mothers” will be involved in the criminal justice system by the time they are 11, 12 or 13 years of age?

Feb. 1, 2013 at 8:45pmNo – America is NOT a third world nation, but the hoods and the slums ARE! This is what our tax dollars buy – losers that don’t know decency and respect, and think they are above the law. IF – and I say IF – they DO get arrested, it’s a slap on the wrist and they can go and do it again. Their food stamps DON’T stop, their free housing DOESN’T stop, their free ‘Bama phone DOESN’T stop. There are NO consequences to their abhorrent behavior, so, they continue. It’s time we test these losers – drug test for food stamps and free housing. They can’t pass the test, then they can starve and fight it out on the streets. Take all of their illegitimate brats away and put ‘em somewhere they can do no damage. I’m not sure they can be re-educated and become productive members of society, but keep ‘em off the streets so they can’t hurt anybody. Take charge, America, or our future is more of this ignorant, pathetic, disgusting behaviors.

Feb. 1, 2013 at 3:00pmThis video emphasizes the reason why people should be licensed to be parents. The woman has no problem using the N word and all manner of profanities in the presence of her children, as well as demonstrating to them that authority should be ignored. She then stands by and watches while her kids, who are barely out of diapers, hurl h o m o s e x u a l slurs against the security guard. She has no problem getting physical with the guard in the presence of her children, but the second he defends himself with a tazor, the father suddenly jumps in and has the nerve to call out the security guard for doing it in front of “his babies.” Give me a bloody break! This, folks, is how b!ack mothers on tax-funded welfare are raising their kids.

Feb. 1, 2013 at 2:44pmI can tell you this is the mentality that is in just about ALL the inner cities. I’m a black man living in Baltimore and it’s not much different than what’s on these videos. Now we have a president trying to spread that culture throughout the country. And these are the cities with all the gun bans and murders. As far as the mother getting tased……serves her right. And all the wanna be thugs hanging out around the store up to know good think they’re impressing people. smdh. You’d impress me when you get a job and take some responsibility. This sad truth really ****** me off but it’s what the black community has turned into when we looked to government as our hero.

Feb. 1, 2013 at 8:52pmHey, Catty – THIS IS ATLANTA. Sorry to burst your bubble, but this goes on daily all around the area – and others. If you’re too stupid to realize this, you’re just part of the problem. I’m sorry you live less than a mile from there, but then you SHOULD KNOW that this demonstrates the lack of civility, education and intelligence that we all need to survive. These people are bottom-of-the-barrel losers that are living for FREE off the hard work of others. What earns them the right to mooch for a living? Yes, they’re stupid and ignorant, but whose fault is that? They have chosen the loser lifestyle and mentality and, unfortunately, our ‘wonderful’ Prez. wants them to continue. One day this will fold up in their face and they will be scratching and clawing to find food – so you’d better find another place to live a little further away if you expect to survive. It won’t take them long to go that mile to find you! Take your head out of the sand and wise up, Libturd, or YOUR days are numbered, just like theirs! And that time is coming faster than you think!

The cities are rotten to the core with this trash and i feel sorry for those blacks that are decent working class folks but these kind of actions that are taking place all across our nation is the result of an administration that somehow has made them feel they are owed something because of history. I don’t owe anybody anything and will fight to protect what I have worked for.

Feb. 1, 2013 at 2:37pmYou think this is rough?
I taught at Mott Community College, located in Flint, Michigan. Those two women could have easily passed for students there.
Somewhere along the way, everything got turned upside down. Very few people go downtown anymore. Nor do they go to the malls very much. Its all unsafe. Our malls here have huge gang problems and car break-ins, vandalism, assaults, rapes, and even murders, are just a typical thing here.
I was born and raised in and around Flint. It is no longer what it used to be.
I did not used to be racist, but the longer this goes on, the more I am starting to hate blacks.
Thank you, Obama, for your flippint attitudes about race, and your unwillingness to prosecute blacks. Thank you, Social Security, food stamps, and federal assistance, for turning the black community into an Americanized version of the jungle.
I want my country back. I want civility back. I tire of working my **** off, while these slimeballs get their housing paid for, their vehicles paid for, their food paid for, and even their cable paid for BY ME!!!
The only thing that would have made me happier is if he had tased the other woman, and even a few of the kids.
Am I angry? Am I upset? You’re da*n right I am!

Feb. 1, 2013 at 2:46pmHow can you defend the black community at all?
When was the last time you saw ANYONE in the black community step up and take personal responsibility for anything? I am still waiting to see that moment.
What I DO see is a black community (I live in Flint, Michigan) who are quick to blame me, ‘whitey’, for all of their social ills.
I also HEAR AND SEE their rap music, which degrades women, idealizes drug usage, gang life, and killling cops. I also READ, HEAR, and SEE that black on black crime is higher than any other crime.
I HEAR AND SEE that the only thing that makes news is when a white person assaults a black person, while black on black crime is ignored.
I WATCH and READ the news, and am amazed and stunned when Eric Holder refuses to prosecute blacks in this country, but drools when he gets the chance to hammer whites, especially if they are white, conservative, and/or Republican.
Don’t make excuses or apologize for them. Until the black community is willing to stand up and take accountability for their actions, they won’t get much sympathy from me…
