With all this crap over in London and in Philly, it's been all over the news how wretched those damn "Flash Mobs" are. What those people were doing were in no way, shape or form a flash mob. A flash mob is when a group of people gather in a certain place and do a synchronized act ( i.e; the prisoners dancing to Michael Jackson and the Oprah birthday one.) It is NOT meant to be violent. Those people who beat people up were bastardizing the term so they could do their insidious deeds without prior detection.
Now that the media has started calling the aforementioned deeds flash mobs, old people (and some young people) have been up in arms about flash mobs because they don't know what the term truly means.
Flash mobs can be fun, and there was one in town today on one of the bridges. But because of all this recent press and the fact that there was a problem with the bridge (OH NO!) an older gentleman was crabbing that the people who participate in such acts should be shot en masse after being told to break it up and counting to ten. Is anybody else reminded of that movie in Home Alone that Kevin is watching by that last comment?
SMH.
