Wal-Mart Can Get Ugly Too.

Less then a week ago for Black Friday on November 28th at 10:46pm a Wal-Mart worker was killed because of the outragous and out of control stampied in Long island fighting through the doors to get inside. Alot of people were lined up outside for hours to get good deals on christmas presents. If we look at the actual meaning of chirtsmas its to celebrate the day baby Jesus was born. So waiting for hours outside a store to get a sale kinda throws that out the window for celebrating the true meaning of christmas. People would argue that you have to look out for yourself or its your own fault for getting hurt or killed. But why cant we have enough respect for ourselfs not to act like assholes and become violent. Yes it may be a Compatition to see who can get everything they want without someone else getting it first,but we dont have to make a massacre of it. To know that everyone knew they were stepping on him and didnt feel like helping him because maybe they would get pulled down to is really sad. They proably Justify it in there minds like im not going to help him up but maybe the next person will so im not so bad. People really act like its the end of the world if they dont get inisde and buy something. In the Article we read in class it said "Chanting push the doors in, the crowd pressed against the glass as the clock ticked down to the 5am opening." if were all going to the same place why do we have to get stupid and act like its the end of the world.

Now for the pregnant Woman who was injured also at Wal-Mart, I think this woman isnt very smart for thinking that she wouldnt get hurt especially the situation that shes in. Why take the chance of possibly hurting your baby over 20 dollars off a TV. I think Americans are very materialistic people and its all because corprate culture constantly wants us to have the latest stuff so they can have our money. I proaby will Never go Black Friday shopping and Wont buy anything that day.
