WTF?! People are so god dam pathetic.. for a $20 savings they camp outside for hours, and then break in to the ****ing store. After they were asked to leave by Police because of the death, they said "ive been waiting since Thursday morning..." WOW.

Cheap mother****ers :smmon:

It was bound to happen. I stay far away from walmart and other stores on black friday. People are nuts.

Walmart needs to be held accountable. This is not the first incident at a Walmart on Black Friday. :nonono:

I cant say that Im surprised. I was up watching TRU TV Thursday night and they were airing "most extreme videos" and it all had to do with past Black Friday madness. It was absolutely insane. Forget calling it black friday, start calling it "national riot day".

First, what a tragic story. I thought it was going to be a joke because quite honestly although I know people can be nuts on Black Friday, I never thought it would come to this extreme. Very sad.

But why is this Walmart's fault? They have a huge sale and some people turn into savages to get those sale items. All of the fault has to be with the people whose lust for sale items totally blankets common decency and respect for the lives of others. JMO.

Unfortunately for me I used to work at walmart for a little while anyways. I actually worked on a black Friday. Its freaking nuts. These people are waiting over night and then some, all of a sudden the doors open and all hell breaks loose. I past buy best buy on Wednesday night at about 9:30pm and people where already lining up. Thats like 30 hours of wait time. Its ridiously to think what people will do to save a buck. Personally I rather wait and spend a few dollars to save time.

It's a shame a lot of people have no common decency or respect for others these days:nonono:

 

[unforgiven]

Whoever said that people are savages was right.

 

[brentman2007]

Looked like alot of ethnic people they were interviewing. Its all those "italians" in long island's fault IMO :burn:

P.S

Store manager: "you people cant come in just yet"
Angry Ethnic Mob: "YES WE CAN!!"

Isn't this what the holiday season is all about? Acting like animals and spending thousands of dollars your poor azz doesn't have?

I know when I think of the savior of the world being born (for those of us that are Christians) the first thing that comes to my mind is not to celebrate the historic event but to instead save $50 on a HP laptop! Thank Christ! I got my Dell on sale!!!!!!!!!!!

How is it Walmarts fault?

:shrug:

I Wonder If It Was One Of The Senior Citizen Or Handicap Greeters :shrug:

How is it Walmarts fault?

:shrug:

Easy. They haven't figured it out yet. You simply have to deploy at least two cop cars, and have them stand near the entryway, and the employees need to make up tickets for the doorbuster items, and have them ticket the line.

Only let in groups of ten to twenty people or so at a time. Once they're all in, let the next group it, etc...

Wal-Mart is just run by a bunch of freakin' morons. The other flip side is, I'm sure anybody that wants to wait outside a WAL-MART on Black Friday is just f'n ghetto.

Bob. You are 100% correct. The people who TRAMPLED this man should be held accountable.

I agree completely. Americans today have forgotten the term, personal accountability.

You guys dont know the area. The people from around there dont give a shit about anyone or anything. I will not go to that mall (that wallmart is on the outer perimeter of a very large mall) ever for anything.
