Jayhad Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 that is ****ed, not only because someone died but who wants to get into walmart that bad, I throw a 3 year old fit everytime my wife wants to go Quote
agbff Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 Make me feel ill, "lets break down these doors and trample a man so we can get discounted blu rays!!!" Large crowd syndrome in effect.... Quote
darrinhurst Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 That is f***ed. Really, who NEEDS to get into WalMart that badly? Just makes me shake my head......mob mentality..... Quote
flyfishfairwx Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 What really would have been sad, though it is a sad thing to happen any were, would be if it had of happened here in CANADA! Then my fear that we CANADIANS are becoming Americanized would be that much closer to a reality... Quote
admin Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 Wow, that is just... Wow. I'm with Jay on staying clear at all costs. I'd rather tie a steak around my neck and jump into the wolf pen at the zoo than go to WM on a weekend. Quote
loyaleddie Posted November 28, 2008 Author Posted November 28, 2008 How can people blame Walmart? It’s the fault of the morons who gathered at the store for so many hours. That’s what I hate about our society NO ACCOUTABILITY! Quote
agbff Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 so do you guys think some one will be charged? what a bad way to go... Quote
Jayhad Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 so do you guys think some one will be charged? what a bad way to go... unless they can CSI the boot print that was teh final blow, I don't think so. Walmart maybe fianancially liable in a civil suit Quote
orvisonly Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 Sure. You can be a glass half empty person and see the down-side. But think of the upside. One more job just became available in a depressed job market. My cousin was supposed to be there for that sale but he stopped in a Montreal parking garage on the way. Lucky thing for him. Quote

loyaleddie Posted November 28, 2008 Author Posted November 28, 2008 unless they can CSI the boot print that was teh final blow, I don't think so. Walmart maybe fianancially liable in a civil suit Liable for what, having a sale that the mindless nitwits could not refuse? or liable for not herding the mindless like cows to a slaughterhouse? I think it was the fault of the police for not shooting randomly into the crowd to disperse the mindless cows… Quote
flyfishfairwx Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 sigh. Sorry rickr... I come by this perspective honestly... I have helped train young Troops in the army and have seen the change in the mentality of the Canadian youth.. A few nights drinking with "old" army buddies and we came up with some causes of this change. and in No order.. MTV Rap Cable TV MacDonald's//Fast food Nintendo Youtube//myspace etc... FaceCrack... ( I do have an account) Gangsta life style Disconnected moms and dads... etc.... So plse accept this as an apology as I can see that that is not "your demographic" you maybe more then I can remember when it was different... Quote
WesG Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 I can just hear the story now " I got a blu ray player for (insert amount here) , it was a great deal!!! And I only had to stampede someone else to the ground to do it"!!!! I heard that there was also an 8 months pregnant women also hurt. Quote

I think maybe Maxwell that you have bought a Hook Line and sinker on some of the stuff you so skillfully misspell here.. Remember I have three sons, 25 - 19 so I think I have heard a little bit of rap and how does Rap become HIP HOP I did not mention HIP HOP .. The message from music be it Hip Hop old school Rock and Roll, etc.. will always get through, wither the msg is a good one or bad one, wither people use to better themselves or not is their choice, I will bet you that if we ever get the chance to chat that my childhood will freak the *hit out of you... . I think the "real people" out there have given you a line to tug... If you believe what you are saying about the gangs being social clubs to better the Hood.. then the Hells Angels and such are just a group of nice guys... I prospected for two bike gangs in the mid 70, again experience over blind youth... I did mention that I have a Facebook account and many of my friends do , however Face book,youtube/myspace and nexpedia do have a dark or bad side.. to promote hate, etc.. you are right about the wannabes who dress gangsta style and only believe what they see on youtube, tv, MTV etc... they are the ones that would show up at the base, or recruit school and then puke and cry..... Have to go hope to follow this up with you sometime, maxwell, I think it would be interesting... Quote
