NICE DAY HERE TODAY...+6c, NOT BAD FOR DEC.1....OUT FOR A DRIVE AND ACTUALLY GOT TO 
SHOOT A GREAT MURDER HAPPENING WITH THE DIGITAL CAMERA!...GOT ABOUT A GOOD FIVE MINUTES OF THIS MURDER ON THE CAMERA ....IT'S A KEEPER I'LL TELL YA'...LOVE A GOOD MURDER ......OHHHH NO,NO PEOPLE!...NOT THAT KIND OF MURDER ...A MURDER OF CROWS....MUST OF BEEN A THOUSAND OR SO I FIGURE,NICE AND LOUD TOO,GOT PRETTY CLOSE....I LOVE THIS TIME OF THE YEAR WHEN THESE HUGE GATHERINGS OCCUR  ...IT FREAKS OUT SOME PEOPLE,BUT I LOVE IT.

One would think that they have freedom all year long and a great ( ! ) capitalist society where they don't feel the shortages and distress that others not so free countries face on a regular basis  
More reactions like this and I'll start thinking that they live under extreme duress all the time, having only one day  in the year where they can afford to buy stuff they need to survive like $700 flat screen tv's and $9 DVD's.

You are right about the catttle prods. That is why cops have tasers here. It's the cowboy legacy, you see....

Not too look as though I am itching for a fight, which I am not, but can anyone tell me why it is that we must lay the blame for such idiocy at the feet of Walmart? "They should have known". "They should have taken precautions". Why is it that Walmart, or any other business, is responsible for the actions of a cretinous population ?? More of the same old "not my fault" mentality?  "I did NOT have sex with that woman". Umm....OK.

People are idiots, by and large. At least this has been my experience. The general population is made up of morons. Over the last ten to twenty years, we have witnessed a "me" generation take over our society and now they have absolutely NO responsibility for what they do. Sign a mortgage that you KNOW is not right for you? No problem. Buy things you KNOW you cannot afford? No problem. Stomp another human being to dust so you can buy useless garbage for ANOTHER "me" kid? No problem. It is not MY fault! It is the government or the corporations or whatever. Right?

Gado.
It's the gado mentality. America is all about GADO mentality. Trampling anybody that doesn't belong to the herd, the culture is only about Walmart and what is selling, from the richest to the poorest. It's all about what you can afford, not about what you can give. Walmart doesn't have much of anything people can live without but that is not the point. The point is that Walmart is America and America tramples over anything that constitutes Humanity. Because one employee was trampled to death, Walmart stock raised a few points on the stock market as a sign that the economy is in good health in spite of the recent "crisis".

This was emailed to me, so feel free to doubt its validity.  It looks real, but then again, I wouldn't know if it was Photo-shopped or not.

GOBBLES!!!!!
