Now I know why there are people around the world that hate Americans; we’re stupid.  I understand that Black Friday is a big day for the retail industry and that its extremely important to our economy, but is it really worth someone dieing to get a good deal on a Blu Ray player?

Its just hard for me to fathom the mentality behind someone willing to push and shove to get to sale items in a store to the point where someone gets trampled in the process.  On top of that, when police and emergency personnel responded to the scene, people were jostling them and making it difficult for them to provide the aid the trampled employee needed.  If I was one of those cops, I think I would have had a hard time not just starting to arrest people.

I don’t even know what else to say.  Stuff like this just really pisses me off.  Its amazing to me how easily people seem to lose perspective on what’s really important in life.
