Bravo

An employee is trampled to death by hundreds of eager customers as they charge into a Wal-mart store, when its doors opened at 5 am on the day of a special sale.

Was it a stampede of starved people trying to get food rations? No.
Were they trying to get other, desperately needed supplies? No.
Is this an uncivilized country where human life has little value? No.

It was a bunch of greedy consumers, in a land of plenty, willing to get up and start waiting in line at 3:00 am to start shopping at 5:00 am, all to save a few bucks on ordinary merchandise.
I hope you REALLY enjoy the 9 $ DVD you got a bargain on.

And they wonder why I like cats.
