Very sad. I wonder what all those hundreds of people wanted so badly?

It’s a sense of entitlement with no self esteem they have been taught. Makes you wonder where all the Jesse Jacksons, Obamas; etc have been all these years. They were suppose to help the people; not sink them any lower. Oh they will try and blame it on others; but it’s not true. Their alledged leaders have had many oppotunities and many years to correct the situation. But the sense of entitlement turned into the elitist who in reality can not be bothered with anyone other than themselves.

The true purpose of a mob like this is to be able to use the mob as a front to shop lift. With this many so called customers evading the store all at once, it is easy to steal all you can get stuffed and carried out the door. All the stop theft employees in the world can not stop the theft of the store. The mob rules! Walmart is not worried about a death of an employee. They have an army of lawyers that will quickly bring an end to law suits. As a person who once worked security for Wallyworld. I was told if the article stolen was below 50.00, don't bother stopping them.

Exactly. What makes it sadder for me is that yesterday son and I went to lunch and I told him, “We’re going to drive by Wal-Mart. If it is crazy, we won’t stop. If it is decent, we will.”

(Hubby likes their $8 jeans for work is the ONLY reason I braved it at all!)

The store was no more crowded than a Saturday. We breezed in, found the last four pair in hubby’s size and were still given the sale price. At 1:30 in the afternoon.

And somehow managed to avoid killing anyone in the process. Although son, did not have as much luck in the thoroughly emptied Bakugan aisle. ;-)

Not to be sarcastic, but wondering how many are getting welfare. Pretty disusting behavior.

A segment of the crowd were undoubtedly professional thieves. They sought to make use of the commotion of the crowd surge to steal specific high ticket, high demand items ~ that would not include large TV sets ~ maybe jewelry, fancy combs, certain items of clothing ~ materials very suitible for smash and grab.

I would imagine there are enough surveillance videos (and other pictures) of this crowd that the cops can sit down and go through them and match them up with known criminals.
