Sometimes it's hard to say...

that I'm proud to be an American. [link]

An excerpt from the AP:

A Wal-Mart worker was killed Friday after an "out of control" throng of shoppers eager for post-Thanksgiving bargains broke down the doors at a suburban store and knocked him to the ground, police said.

At least four other people, including a woman eight months pregnant, were taken to hospitals for observation or minor injuries, and the store in Valley Stream on Long Island closed for several hours before reopening.

Nassau police said about 2,000 people were gathered outside the store doors at the mall about 20 miles east of Manhattan. The impatient crowd knocked the man to the ground as he opened the doors, leaving a metal portion of the frame crumpled like an accordion


What the fuck?

Yeah I saw this on the news earlier. Fucking ridiculous. I'm very glad I don't work retail anymore.

What the hell? Trampling?

This is why shopping isn't a healthy habit. Neither on wallets nor workers.

HOLY CRAP. This why I never shop on Black Friday ><. There is NOTHING at a store that means THAT much to me.

Man stuff like this just makes you real ashamed of your own country. I can't see this happening anywhere else.

Shit man, being a Wal-Mart employee myself, that was hard to hear about today.

What kills me is, that guy probably went into work today thinking to himself "Man, I don't wanna do this today. I just want to go home." and he was killed because of people's... I don't even know what to call that trait. It's just unnatural.

Dude, seriously. That is exactly what I was thinking. He just wanted to do his time and go home, and he gets killed at his shitty job for what? Cheap, poorly made, crap.
