STAMPEDE AT Wal-Mart Kills one Temporary Wal-Mart Greeter

Post by disneyboy20022 »

Okay This just gets worse and worse every year....


Apparently at a Wal-Mart somewhere the USA was trampled by a stampede of Black Friday Shopper.......


This is why I encourage online Black Friday...

Still this is sad either way you look at it...

and the unions who are against Wal-Mart say that this could have been prevented....

Honestly I think Idc who you are I think this death very easily could have been prevented.....I would/think/hope/wish that even Wal-Mart has enough self respect to say that...I mean what's Wal-Mart going to say....they had it coming?? :roll:

It could have been prevented if that mob of people had shown even a little self restraint :roll: I find Black Friday to be ridiculous, all this over a bloody sale.

Speechless.

But of course, everyone needs to get his/her DVDs, Blu-Rays, Plasma Screens and God knows what else, from Wal-Mart.

If this was a famished Ethiopian mob struggling to obtain a free bowl of soup from a store I may have forgiven them.

Otherwise it's a disgusting show of human greed and - dare I say it - primitive animalistic instincts.

LOL... sounds like the sort of thing you'd see in a movie... I never pictured that happening for real. (Anyone seen Jingle All the Way? When the guy opening the door gets run over by the masses of people running in the store)

I did all my Black Friday shopping at Target... and nothing like that happened. It was a madhouse, but I don't think anyone got hurt.

I know exactly where that Wal-Mart is. I pass by it every time I go up to Long Island to visit relatives.

Anyway, I think that that is just disgusting and unacceptable for people to do. I am SO glad that I didn't go to Wal-Mart on Black Friday. As if it's not disgusting enough on every other day. People are such pigs. Honestly, if I were in a situation like this where one person got KILLED and a pregnant woman was sent to the hospital, I would definitely do something about it.

And then you ask why there's such "grinchy" people who despise all those who tend to buy for Christmas "on a special offer day"

Yeah...greatest way to start the holly days for the poor guy's family
