Unthankful Shoppers

Who would've thought a stampede the day after Thanksgiving would result from shopping... which resulted in a death... and at an uh Wal-mart? WTF? The day after Thanksgiving has been dubbed, Black Friday shopping. I guess that name equates to major sales/savings in the department store world. Well usually when the word black and/or dark is used to describe an event, it is not usually a love fest. Anyway a Long Island, New York Wal-Mart is where hundreds of shoppers bum rushed the door, and trampled a 34 year old maintenance worker, according to the New York Daily News. An emergency crew was summoned to save the man's life, however while the man lays on the floor, shoppers continued to run past him and the emergency crew until the Poe Poes had to shut the store down. Unfortunately the worker was pronounced dead that morning at a nearby hospital.
