    I am sure this will be on the ABC evening news with David Muir......

    One night I was watching and they did a segment on a black Dad being asked to leave a sports field for yelling at the referee.

    The black Dad was yelling at the referee’s and someone alerted this women who was driving a golf cart. She showed up and asked the Dad to leave.

    No fights, nobody hurt, just a racist complaint against older lady who asked the black Dad to leave. The women has worked at the job for over 20 years.

    As a dad who coaches youth sports, it is not out of the ordinary to ask a parent to leave if they are causing trouble.

    I actually seen two grandmothers in a fist fight at a flag football game and it didn’t make the local news or newspaper.

    There was no fight, racist words, just a racist complaint....

    What amazes me is they report on something like a black dad being asked to leave the field, but when an illegal held for rape is released by a sanctuary city before ice can pick them up, you don’t hear anything from the MSM.

    The MSM loves racist stories of any kind these days, so they can blame Trump.

    Prior to 2007 - when fake news really started, this story at the post office would not have gone any further than the town it occurred in.

    There are companies that do a better job, faster and cheaper.

    Maybe the guy who was yelling scored higher on the civil service test and lost out to the affirmative action hire who scored lower on the test.

    Of course for packages that is why Fed Express and UPS came about and a third one a German company with a D in its name. When letters are obsolete thevPO can shut down completely. Sort of.

    In the rural area I live in, the post office is staffed by both blacks and whites. Every time I have been there, regardless of the color of the employee at the counter, I have received superb service - smiles and friendly service. Perhaps this is more of a "living in an over-crowded area" thing vs "living in an uncrowded area" thing?

    we have a president that is a narcissistic aggressive idiot with a fragile ego, most do not like these kind people, but we can't support being physically violent against them, had that violent attack not happened seconds before the shooting, this case would be easy

    if Trump was on fifth ave and someone violently attacked him in the same way, I would support him shooting them...

    Love USPS. When I pay them money they always, without fail, have provided me with good service. Every once in awhile they hire a bad employee, and its close to impossible to get rid of them. That isn't the case in the OP.

    Mail your Christmas packages early this year. The halloween stuff is already in some stores so you know it won't be long.

    I think you are in the wrong thread. There was no violent attack. There was no shooting. This is a thread on a man angrily shouting at a postal worker.

    I visit the post office quite a bit because I do some ebay shipping but i'm always prepaid and just dropping off, but the times i've needed service its been above average at one location but less than average at the other, so I skip that one by work and use the pack & ship instead, no reason to patronize the sucky one. Its my only recourse, and i'm good with that.

    But no this guy might be nuts, angry and a racist ****** but this is not an arrest-able offense, just ban him from that location and move on, i'm guessing he's been a total ****** most of his life. Safe assumption? Thankfully he's old so we won't be graced with that personality for too much longer.

    No idea what they'd investigate.

    yip, could be mixed in with the video's of people throwing their burgers back at the counter person, or my personal favorite, throwing them through the drive in window.

    At least he wasn't yelling "ITS MAAM" !!!! which cracked me up big time




    If you are super bored there's a mountain of public freak out videos on youtube, and I mean a MOUNTAIN! Standard stuff, getting called everything under the sun, angry about ketchup, shoes, pack of cigarettes, there's even one guy hanging on the bumper of a school bus yelling at the driver as they go down the road, lots of entertainment to be had.

    What company comes to your house everyday to see if you have something to send? What company will come get your letter and take it across the country and delivery it for $.50?

    Not always, at least from the perspective of a consumer. As I mentioned earlier I do quite a bit of mailing and I have the option of choosing between FedEx ups and USPS, I choose USPS 85% of the time. I do a lot of regional priority shipping. Now if I was getting the sweet bulk discounts that FedEx and UPS give away to big corps then it would be different, the price disparity between the regular Joe and a big mailer are insane. USPS is more fair in that respect

    I totally agree I believe they offer an excellent value overall the only reason they're losing money is a combination of the retirement deal and competition.

    Not only that they're reliable as can be expected.

    Well I live in a rural enclave of southern california-so I have no "outbox" to send mail. I have to drive a few miles to a local market (no joke).

    I can get mail from the USPS but thats all.

    A company coming every day just to see if I have something to send is by definition inefficient.

    If I want something sent stat and arriving quickly, I go to a private company.

    Same if i want something delivered quickly.

    And I don't have to pay for a gov employees inefficiency and retirement.

    Going to the post office is as bad as going to the DMV, except with even more illegals.

    I think the daily thing was before email and texts so that could be updated. Wasnt there a big brouhaha a few years back about killing Saturday. Or Wednesday delivery? Bunch of senators were using "dorothy. age 94, needs her insulin " as to why we couldnt save billions?

    I'd be fine with 4 day delivery/pickup except for parcels but Congress would freak over that suggestion.

    I get 10-15 pieces of legit mail a day at work and the number is steadily declining but at home its 5 junk vs 1 legit envelope, maybe 10-1.

    It doesn't seem like he committed a crime. It isn't illegal to call someone a ******

    Maybe at the most disorderly conduct. Perhaps trespassing but that's not really something you can be arrested for later.

    Some on the left want to ban speech. They call it hate speech.

    Might could get him on public intoxication but only if he's intoxicated.

    USPIS declined to press charges. My guess is he is not all there and they had pity on him. We’ll never know.
