Working for a retailer, I just don’t understand why they encourage this kind of mayhem, with limited stock blowout sales at crazy times. greed at its worst (on both sides), if you ask me.

There’s nothing wrong with stores having sales and trying to make some money, the unruly people who can’t check themselves are really to blame. Trying to pin this on Walmart like those people trying to sue them is just ridiculous. They are just trying to win money because if they just sue each other, they’d get nothing. Maybe Walmart should have had slightly more security, but ultimately the mob is to blame.

I feel read bad from this situation also. People are just so materialistic these days. Here someone was shot for purchasing the last wii from the store and it is really hard to get. But this should not be happening. Hopefully something like this does not happen here in two weeks time during boxing day.
