So Black Friday is a dangerous time. Apparently people are getting trampled, shot, pepper sprayed, beaten, and even tasered. Why? Because they can save a few dollars! Frankly, I would rather pay money than subject myself to that kind of behavior and those kinds of people. That's why I do all my Black Friday shopping online, where everything is safe and happy.
But seriously, this behaviour is out of control. What is it that people need so badly that they are willing to hurt others to get it? Xboxes? Ipads? Plus, all those things are readily available all the time! But the good news is that spending and consuming is up. Hooray for the economy. Its not the people in Walmarts and Targets that are the winners in this scenario, that is for sure.
I am sure there are videos of the mayhem that are interesting for those of us who decided that we were better off not consuming junk... If you see videos worth sharing, don't hesitate to post a comment or message me.
