Nothing to spend all thanksgiving night in line and trample people over. Just driving home from work today there were so many crazy drivers speeding and swerving in and out of lanes to get into the shopping centers.

You really only see this at walmart and similar stores where most of the clientele is trashy low income families. I no matter how good the deal will stand in line overnight to save a few hundred my time is much much more valuable. Its sad that people resort to this over a simple toy, it speaks poorly of us as a whole.

(which.........still might be.....true....) but then I remember the last time a huge sale happened here and people went berserk! Edited by Nuno, Dec 3 2013, 05:48 AM.

When I shoot, I shoot to film Posts: 1,971 Group: Legendary Member #337 Joined: August 8, 2010	Yea I live in the USA and I don't go out to Black friday but its fun to watch people in walmart fight over things. I always wait for cyber monday I always like to think of the russian joke, In communist Russia you don't bear arms, you arm bears. Well in consumeristic america you dont watch tv, tv watches you.
