There was nothing we could do to calm it. It went on for a few minutes and after much prodding by the observers, they returned to their respective carts screaming and swearing at each other.
I had to keep telling myself that I wasn't watching a television program, that this was happening right in front of me. I wanted to call the police, but I didn't know who to call or what good it would have done.

Not *everyone* here is a nice as we would like them to be. My husband was called a not so nice word one morning in TooJays, by someone who apparently didn't like how long it took him to get a bill corrected. Sad but true!
