I wonder if there will be lawsuits by both the family of the man who was trampled by the Walmart tramps and the the woman who lost her unborn baby due to a fall caused by the uncontrolled crowd?

In my neck of the woods we call it WhiteTrashMart for good reason.

A Wal-Mart employee was killed when hundreds of unruly shoppers broke down the doors and rushed the entrance. What a bunch of "F" ing savages.

Don't set yourself up KG. Half the people on this board are going to blame this on "capitalism".

Wow. Just wow.

I think this worker put it quite well:

Indeed. Kind of makes it difficult to believe we were created by anything more than happenchance.

It sounds like Walmart is making a kind of pre-emptive strike with that possibility in mind (by noting their efforts for added security, barricades, etc.). I wonder if a civil suite could be made against any of the shoppers(?)
