Hundreds of shoppers smashed through windows at a Long Island Wal-Mart early Friday morning, killing one store employee in the stampede. News' reader Nakea Augustine caught the chaotic scene on her cell phone, check out the photos.

LOLs, that statement is as ignorant and stupid as some other statements on this thread aimed at the mobs color and that being the reason for their dangerous and stupid behavior...How quickly people do not realize stupidity comes in all colors.
The person who was trampled to death was Jdimytai Damour, a temporary worker from Queens.

Was at Gander Mt. Store today buying ammo,, store was packed but people were pleasant. People selling hotdogs out front and the kettle ringers were there. Very nice crowd.
See post 27.
I'd do it for a million. Hell! Some people pay to jump out of perfectly good airplanes.
Well they don't have any money to spend. (and it's not Bushes fault they think welfare is better than an education)
But, they have credit cards to rank up large debt on which they have no plan to repay thanks to Democrats, Acorn thugs, and fanny Mae/Freddy Mac for bundling up all this high risk bad debt and selling it to ususpecting investors all over the world.
When the card is "empty", they just trow it away and go get another from another company. And if they refuse to give them one, they send in Acorn 'community re investment" thugs to lean on them a little.
smashed through windows????????????
Surely Walmart could not be expected to see that as a foreseeable event..but this they surely would

They could have handed out numbers like I have seen other stores do for the hot items.
I can’t imagine Queens if there is a food shortage...or anywhere in the vicinity.
Really? You know, we had the same sale in my hometown in Iowa, and everyone lined up like civilized human beings. How can you POSSIBLY blame WalMart for this??? You are wrong.
So when is the next STIMULUS CHECK coming... ?
I was going to post the except same thing here - but with a /s tag on it. Wow!
Now now. I spotted 2 white faces in the crowd. Must be all their fault...
We think alike. In hotels and other places with crowds, the first thing I look for is an escape route just in case there is a problem.
Many years ago, I took a date to a restaurant. We stumpled in on an armed robbery in progress. As they herded us into the dining room, I kept moving us closer and closer to the exit. We got out while it was still in progress.
Unfortunately, private enterprise must now take the decline of our society into account when making decisions.
That was the story on the 4pm local news; next hour's report changed to a bang-bang-gang-angst shootout.....but you're right: Stay tuned.
Our local Coachella Valley TV stations' news departments are staffed by -- let's just say -- less than large market "talent"....
...Yup,yup,yup, you know,,, it was obamas supporters, in yer biased, distorted, dogmatic, twisted, warped, uppp, excuse me, for being judgmental
The nation gets the leader it deserves...
Obama supporters, practically every single one of them.
