Only to the relatively small number of whack-jobs, freaks and losers whom the MSM and greedy retailers exploit.

Ah, the voice of reason.

Even when I was a kid, the idea of camping out to "buy stuff" seemed manipulative and stupid. I honestly can't believe this entire charade still takes place every year.

When I was a kid (50s/60s) there was no such thing. In fact, stores closed early on Saturday afternoon, Sundays and (gasp) holidays.
I'm as big a capitalist as anyone, but when people start losing their lives because of the Black Friday chaos - I blame the greedy retailers for not putting an end to this insanity.
