I was at Wal Mart this morning, only to buy milk. Outside were 3 police cars parked right out front so your chances are slim if your going to walk out with a flat screen TV (unpAID) AND ALSO THERE WAS RENTAL GATES EVERYWHERE so like cattle, you could form a line into the store in order

As a Wal-Mart associate myself, I would like to offer my view point on this tragic situation. First off I would like to say that a life was taken that will never be able to be given back, no matter how much money is given to the family. Second, There are always better precautions to take then the ones that were used, it is up to Wal-Mart to provide a safe working environment to their associate and this means thinking and preparing for the “impossible.” Thirdly, even if noone was trampled at any of the other stores, people are rude, pushy and downright mean. They go into frenzy of selfishness, greed, and insatiable hunger to get the best deal. I have seen people at their worst on this day, as I have worked at this establishment for over ten years. They knew that they were stepping on someone and did not care to notice the life they were taking. I hope that as the corruption of greed consumed them, so to does the guilt of their actions. When working, shopping or whatever, this day should not be viewed as going into battle. That is exactly what it is. People run over you to get that T.V., throw a punch to get the latest new toy, and ram you with their carts or various body parts to get to where they think they should be. They lie, cheat, steal and does whatever it takes to get what they want (reguardless of how.)
They are rude to the associates and this is the day that rules that usually apply in a civilized society are thrown out of the proverbial window. All that is import is more…more…more. This type of behavior sickens me. This man was working to support himself and probably a family. Wal-Mart condones this type of behavior by using the ideal of “the customer is always right.” Yes, they are stealing us blind, abusing our workings not only mental, verbally, but also physically but we still will appease and please the customer. I hope people realize how they truly act on this day, step back, breath and become more considerate of their fellow humans. The holidays are in its very core about the love, family, tradition, and celebration. Yet, we again focus on the material, thinking that the gifts we buy will fill the void and absentness from our families. Tell you what, save your money, work less, buy less and spend that time (instead of money) on and with your family. My deepest sympathy goes to those who lost their loved one because of the stupidity and selfishness of others. All I can say is the next time you feel the need to be abusive and rude to your fellow human kind, take a step back, breath and remind yourself what is truly important.

They should get enough people in the pictures and put them to justice, Put their pics on the news and offer money, someone will turn them in!…. I look at the people in those pictures and can safely say YOU ALL MAKE ME SICK!.

If they don’t use the pictures to bring the “Animals” to justice then shame on the police fop not doing thier jobs!

We had lines here, but we all know how to walk like humans and have recspect for each other, we all got our deals without running over and killing anyone…

I hope you all live a horrible life from this day out, maybe in hell they have a walmart just for you and you’ll have to wait in line for eternity!!!!!!!!! LOSERS!

This is one of the saddest stories I’ve seen. No wonder I don’t like crowds. What a tragic thing to happen to that man’s friends and family.

All because of people who think they’re getting a bargain.

I work at target and though we had no where near the number of people waiting that this walmart had, with a little planning and commonsense it went off without a problem. We started forming a line night before as people showed up, away and out of view of the doors, all our security was there walking up down the line keeping it thin so there could be no forward surge, yes the line was extremely long but it was safe and controlled for both shoppers and the employees.

There are so many reasons to boycott Walmart and this is just one more to the long list. Walmart sells garbage merchandise that breaks down and brings the people back to buy yet more garbage merchandise. Someone died in the store and yet they reopened the store later that day. WOW! Thumbs up Walmart!!! Thumbs up!! Walmart does not respect it’s employees by paying them min. wage and no benefits. It rapes and pileges small towns leaving a path of mom and pop store carnage with it’s Happy Smiley Face sales.
BOYCOTT CRAPMART!!! Your merchandise made in China SUCKS!!!

Thats Disgusting. Sales are no reason to kill! seriously why even wait at a store for a day just to have to leave because you killed a man. And the people who wanted to say YOU are just stupid!!! That pregnant lady shouldn’t of even been there in the first place but seriously Why get so rilled up up just for a sale. I hope you can live with you selves because i wouldn’t be able to.
