That is pathetic. I don't know what is wrong with our society. I mean where else would you hear about a worker getting trampled to death because of impatient black Friday shoppers? Only in America.

Symptom of our society's consumerist, greedy, narcissistic culture which puts your own desires about another person's well being and turns "wants" into "needs". I mean really...what was worth this innocent man's life? A TV? DVD player? People need to get some perspective. Its absurd.

WOW...what a tragedy!!! As sad as it is, I was one of the people who waited outside best buy overnight with a bunch of friends on Black Friday too, but they had their security ready for hectic morning ahead! Everyone waiting was in a single file line and we were being monitered throughout the night! People are the way they are, but its also sad when these big corporations try to save on the security costs even when they KNOW what happens every year and how crazy it gets! :/
