Sign of the Times - Guns, Pepper Spray on Black Friday

Latest reports are that you may be shot if you show up at Walmart on Black Friday. Incidents of people being shot, pepper sprayed and robbed were the norm for Walmart today.

These are the result of an economy going into free fall. Apparently more people are attempting to solve their own problems because They now know for certain that the U.S Congress in incapable of helping them.

Corporations and Banks are going to need to start loosening their purse strings or there will be nothing left to do with their money but paste it on the wall.

It is very sad that shopping needs to include pepper spray and guns with police.

David,

I saw these reports today and was even happier that I had a home inspection to attend. Absolutely crazy behavior.

I actually heard about it first hand. One of the emergency responders is a friend of mine in Trenton NJ and he told me about these unbelievable events this morning.

All I can say is PEOPLE GET A GRIP! What happened to THANKSGIVING! This is after all, just a stupid sale.

I watched it on TV and still find it hard to believe the country has gotten to this. I heard at one of ours they had so much shp lifting that the police ask them to stop calling.

Sad commentary on people today. It's all about the me, me, me thought process that runs through society today. That and the idea that winning at any cost is the way to do things.
