the key differnece being that ICE agents are public servants and our entire criminal justice system is based on openness and transparency... our system of karens is based on people watching too much social media. |
There are other videos of the ball-stealer woman harassing another fan (who may have been boo-ing her.) She seems to have an anger management problem. |
ICE agents shouldn’t wear masks, but the criminal justice system isn’t based on openness. That’s a real oversimplification. |
I watched that video very carefully. It appears the ball landed practically in front of her.
She's in the process of grabbing the ball when the man snatches it right under her hands. She was within inches of the ball, when the man stuck his arm across her body and grabbed it. He had to race across several sections, to reach her section. He likely began running as soon as he realized the vicinity where it would land. Now, I'm sorry, but that is tacky and ill mannered. Complete lack of civility. It's one thing when the ball lands near you and everyone reaches for it at the same time. One person will make contact with it, and the rest will good naturedly concede that individual is the winner. In this case, the ball was going to land completely out of his section. Totally. He raced across several sections to get to the ball, which was landing right in front of this woman. She gleefully reached for it, but he aggressively snatched it right from under her. I don't blame her for getting angry. He was a jerk. However, I would have let it go. If I were having a really, really bad day with my defenses down, I likely would have done exactly what she did. Most of the time I'm good natured, but you push me hard enough on a bad day and I will tear you a new face. That is what she did. I don't go to baseball games, but my understanding is you don't race across several sections to reach the ball before it's taken by the people in the vicinity where it drops. |
+1 Saying “sportsball” in 2025 is embarrassing. |
In other words, she had the advantage, but dropped the ball. |
She got a ball, ruined a father son moment, and was shamed into oblivion. That kid got a goodie bag, signed bat, World Series tickets and a new RV. I’d say she’s a loser. |
It's two adults fighting over a child's souvenir and everyone is a loser. The kid didn't do anything wrong, but his father acted with a weird level of entitlement. The lady is psychotic. |
Again, the 'Karen' is NOT the lady from the school. The Hammonton school district publicly responded with an amusing addition:
The woman identified on social media as the "Phillies Karen" is not, and has never been, an employee of the Hammonton Public Schools located in Hammonton, New Jersey. Social media and news reports indicating that she is are incorrect. Anyone who works for our school district, attended as a student or lives in our community would obviously have caught the ball bare-handed in the first place, avoiding this entire situation." |
That woman stood up for herself with the jerk dad who stole the ball from her. Why are we women not backing her? Because there's a kid involved? Sure, and I also wouldn't have made an issue of it regardless of how I felt. But she was definitely in the right. The entire stadium backed the dad because they're all men. |
He didn’t rip it from her hand, he just got it first. Tough break lady. Stealing it from a child and flipping people off over it is disturbing. |
LOSER KAREN |
Well, there are the 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th and 14th amendments... but other than that, yeah, I guess you have a point. :smdh: |
You’re wrong. I do go to baseball games. People run, clamor and fight for these balls. It’s stupid but he did what everyone does when it’s not sold out and they can run to another section. They do. He just got it before she did. It happens all the time where the ball bounces or whatever and the people right there don’t get it. There’s no “etiquette” here where you leave it to the people in that section, especially when it’s sparse attendance. |
PS if there is any etiquette at all it’s that you give the ball to a kid. |
