What kind of person takes a gun toy shopping?? Toys Are US in Palm desert I guess is where this happened. Wal-Mart clearly did not have enough security on hand to handle the "stampede" of morons. Typical Wal-Mart style. It 's all about the money and never about the people. Profit is great but humanity is more important.

Dan99, you just have to be liberal. The kind of person you are wondering about was a gangbanger. You know, that disadvantaged youth hosing down neighborhoods waiting for liberals to find the root cause. And no, it isn't the gun. The second indicator that you are liberal is that you pointed to the evil corporation as the root cause for the Wal-Mart death. What you failed to realise is that it wasn't the gun or corporate greed that caused the deaths. It was disgusting little pieces of human trash that can't think beyond themselves. What should happen now but won't is that police should use store cameras to ID as many people as they can that ran over the Wal-Mart employee and charge them with his death and they should adopt a zero tolerance for gang involvement. Being involved in a gang should be treated the same as being involved in a terrorist organization. Gangs are nothing more than domestic terrorists and the penalties should be the same.

Predictably, because we have been a very, very wealthy nation for so many generations (excluding the Depression and a few other temporary episodes), we have produced many 'spoiled brats' who think only of their own needs and behave accordingly. It remains to be seen whether, in all classes of our 'classless' society, we can re-awaken social responsibility, with appropriate self-restraint and generosity toward others.

bunfight is right! but nothing will be done. its walmart-who do you think the main body of the mob voted for? and for the gangs? again nothing will be done. these are not gangs...they are semi-independent inter-city armies! to remove this threat to the internal security of the united states would require a change in the constitution to allow movement of regular army units inside the U.S. and that will never happen as long as socialism has a deathgrip on the country. so-bunfight-duck and keep movin' it is'nt going to get better!

First off, to be in line since Thursday tells you there are some very stupid, yes stupid, no lifes. To do what they did was criminal even without the death. Property destruction and rioting as a mob. They should be required to support the man's family for the rest of their lives. When the pukes got home they probably turned on Oprah to emote about some fool that lost their cat.

Black Friday is strictly a day for lowlife and when lowlife is prevalent bad things happen. What else can I say?

If Wal-Mart had undertaken the security measures prudent for a group of people like this, all we would have heard is "this is racist; why so much security because we're black" ! You're damned if you do and damned if you don't ! No, it's the peoples' fault and nobody else's. Obama had better talk to people like this, perhaps HE can get through to them !

It couldn't have been Plaxico Burress in the Toys R Us because that idiot can't shoot straight.

The Wal Mart instance might be expected, unacceptable, but expected if the U.S. were a land of poverty where people have to fight for life sustaining necessities, but in the U.S.? A man's life doesn't mean as much as the latest video game, discounted CD or movie? It's social relativism at it's lowest level. As long as there is social consensus, then there is justification. John Bolton called it "norming" at the U.N., it in essence moral equivalency or defining "is" by Clinton and as stated by DAN99 in blaming Wal Mart, it is an indicator of eight years of Democrat blame politics in the Congress. In reality, this is the self indulgent tragedy of our times.
