I agree, Priests tend to hurt business, especially when you run a godless establishment like an arcade.

But the OP clearly DOESN'T have a holier than thou attitude (probably due to lack of priests outside his establishment). He SPECIFICALLY said, make up your own mind on this.

I wonder if the the roles were reversed, if the 'minority' whites would occasionally rebel like this? No, probably not. We would just take it and smile. Yep, that's exactly what would happen. Ooh, Fox News is on, gotta go.

Mullets rule! Hey, Greg Daniels called. He wants his hair back. Lol.

Wow, racism is alive and well on Pinside! Yell shut up and go get a job, ok, run out there yelling the N word!? WTF?

I would tell Dorky to F himself before I would ever consider dropping any coin there!

Not seeing that myself here. It's been fairly civil so far. But yeah, this thread can end any time.

Why so much worry about the thread ending at any time? So many obsessed with a potential lock!

Take in the moment, people. Live dammit, live!!!!

It's a pity this thread had to go to shit, but I guess it's inevitable here. Some people just can't help themselves. Spewers gotta spew.

I'll probably never be anywhere near this Dorky's spot. But if I ever am I'll keep walking. My prerogative to spend my money as I wish. No real need for me to get into why, that's not going to help the thread any.

I like pinside better when we can all just love pinball together. It's what binds us. We're not going to agree about everything else. It's a little fake, it's like the brown bagged liquor, we can all know what's inside it, but it lets us pretend we don't know. I'd just rather not know you're a giant racist personally. Maybe that makes me a bit of a hypocrite, but I'll deal with that on my own.

Well said!

I had no idea that having your hands up meant don't shoot.

Uh..... Sarcasm alert!

I've never understood the thread lock obsession thing either...so weird.

Can't speak for anyone else but I won't be back. My family and I just went for the first time Saturday..loved the place! But after seeing this asshole behave this way I will spend my time and money elsewhere! Just what I choose to do!

In this case, maybe because it was Sunday?

What Chinese restaurant in DC? Need a good recommendation when I visit.

You aren't from the anti-defamation league are you?

Paul Kee in Wheaton, Maryland (not actually in DC)

Not Chinese, but Japaneese... I had some fantastic Ramen over the weekend at Totto Ramen in NYC. I think it was around 52nd and 9th. A surprising little cellar joint.

I have met a number of characters through the pinball community and even seen and had some personality conflicts. But I have never known of a pinhead that I would call "mean", until today. His intent is to silence the voices of those who would protest for a more just society and world. To the owner of Dorky's arcade in Tacoma, WA, I am glad that I have never met you and never will.

Darn. Will be near the Capitol. Had to get this info before the lock - just in case.

Oh good lord. Nice stretch of what has been said here. You can't have an intelligent conversation when you just make stuff up because you think it proves your point of view.

I watched the video, and seen the guy with the mega-phone being annoying, but never heard the "N" word. Did I miss something in the video?

Maybe it's just me, but could it have been possible that this was entirely a false accusation - After all, they are wanting publicity, and usually look for controversy to fuel it.

Just watched the whole video and the only people creating a problem are the protestors blocking a major intersection. Got to give it to Dorky he is a true soldier, need more like him.

2:56 he clealy says it at least 2 times in a row. EDIT: I would say 3 times the first one is quick...but don't worry he slows it down so there isn't much to debate aboot

EDit: I mean is this place a bar? I guess he could be saying "JIGGER" but I don't think so

Funny, I have never missed you and your liberal PC brainwashing. My point is that if you act like a piece of shit thug you cant complain if you are called a piece of shit thug. If you act like a criminal you cant bitch if you get arrested or shot by the police. Funny thing is that I have 20-30 black people come into my office daily and the only ones who disagree with that are the ones I'm referring to. Im pretty much betting that you never come in contact with these people of any color and are just some white guilt liberal talking out your ass

Thanks for posting Josiah! Sad to hear this.. I love dorkys and go to tocoma just to play there occasionally. Not into supporting racist owned establishments though ugh sucks to know what an ass the owner is.

This thread is just silly. There is a Pinsider in Asheville that is chooch-less !!! That is serious business !!!

Well one thing for sure we now know who the bleeding heart liberals are. Probably living in a gated and guarded community, only coming out in the safety of daylight for brunch.

"Palm Beach Gardens is a city in Palm Beach County in the U.S. state of Florida. As of the 2010 United States Census, the population was 48,452.[6] The city has a number of gated communities."

Wow, I missed it the first time (probably the annoying musical mega-phone), but I can hear it now that I go back.

Gotta lock this one, guys. I'm sure this comes as no surprise.
