Black Friday has been around considerably longer than Øbamacare.
That they have allowed the BF insanity to increase to the point where shoppers have actually been killed, only testifies to their callousness and greed.
And it's not just the Thanksgiving holiday that's been ruined by retailers - it's all holidays.
The "best" (worst) example are the ignorant SOBs who run ads on 30 May proclaiming,"Happy Memorial Day."
