Yup, Black Friday is just around the corner and it seems that there will be another carnage over cheap toys and other "necessities". That's the feeling of black Friday, fight your way for that one deal that's 10 bucks off regular price, amazing isn't it? I mean, you'll just be saving a few bucks, it's not like your hurting anyone!...
"The New York Times reported at the time that the crowd outside the store had been building since the wee hours of the morning; the cops were called in to do crowd control as early as 3:30. Just before 5, things turned ugly:
Suddenly, witnesses and the police said, the doors shattered, and the shrieking mob surged through in a blind rush for holiday bargains. One worker, Jdimytai Damour, 34, was thrown back onto the black linoleum tiles and trampled in the stampede that streamed over and around him."-From alternet.com
A mans life was taken away due for the sake of saving a few bucks... Quite a few innocent workers have suffered the same fate, all because of black friday. It truly is stupid in my opinion, many still continue to rampage to toy stores even though they know what has happened in the past. Is this seasonal sale really worth it?
