It's not garbage. I got a new DS for $80. Wooo

My dad's friend was a walmart employee and he was in charge of opening the doors last year. His arm was nearly broken.

I'm not surprised, though it is very saddening. 21st century Consumerica, baby. Welcome to the digital ageless century.

This happened 15 minutes from my house.

I worked at Modell's a few years ago...picture soccer mom's.

Trust me. I have personal experience.

Agree. Two years ago I had to be at work at Belk at 4:30 so we could open at 5 am. When I arrived, I couldn't find a parking space in the massive outdoor shopping center. People were lined up and banging on the doors.

And they were cranky. :/ I don't know why it was MY fault they were awake at an obscene hour.

Bastards.

People suck so much.

Also, the "lol black people" comments stop now.

edit: did anyone read the comments at the bottom of the article? They are more tragic than this man's death.

qft. btw. it's not about race, just the average iq of the people. avg. iq of people times the amount of avg. daily wal-mart shoppers times the added amounts due to black friday + bad judgment = tragedy.

PS two people were shot to death at a California Toys R' Us today.

**nuclearsamurai** · 11-28-2008, 11:38 PM

Now that shows just how bad people get for cheap crap.

I'm going to assume it did because it just makes the whole situation more ridiculous.

Apple 8GB Touch on sale in Wal-Mart: $227.88
Trampling over an employee to grab the limited capacity in the store: Priceless.

There are some things money can't buy. Seriously, go ******* figure.

I wonder how all these people in the crowd reacted. Did they even care? I bet not... Seriously, no one gives a flying rat's ass about anyone when it comes to something they want. I really didn't like what happened to that pregnant woman. Wtf was she thinking even shopping at a time like this?

When asked whether it was gang related there was no response. ;3

Some one in Toys-R-Us this morning shot someone and then killed themselves. I dont know if this happened in CA and you guys Haven't heard about it but its all over the news where I live. Also, I have no clue on the motives of the shooting
