I never thought "Black Friday" would have a literal meaning.
Pretty disturbing. At first I was disgusted not only by the death but also by the behavior of the American consumerism. I thought, how could consumerism reach a point like this when our economy is on a course toward a recession? I realized its not an escalation of consumerism, it is a display of desperation. Mobs trampling workers to death and unhinging doors to get the ultimate savings. Its definitely a sign of the times and it shows some people will stop at nothing to save save save.
