I wasn’t kidding in my previous post titled, “A Fierce Battle Is Approaching.” Apparently, a temporary employee for a Walmart in New York was killed on Black Friday during the store’s 5:30AM opening. He fell to the ground and was ignored by all the anxious customers entering the store. Police and witnesses state that he was probably trampled on by over a hundred people before someone could come to assist him. The full story can be found here.
It’s all really sad. Someone’s life is worth far more than some discounted item.
