There is nothing wrong with Black Friday. Save for the fact that it seems to bring out behaviors that may well have perplexed Neanderthals. One example might be that of a man who pulled a gun on a line-cutter at a Sears in San Antonio, Texas.
Another might be the following joyous, spirit-lifting tale from Springfield, Mass.
According to police, 34-year-old Anthony Perry was very much excited by a 51-inch TV at his local K-Mart.
He allegedly drove to the mall at around 1:30 a.m., his girlfriend's 2-year-old in tow.
As WWLP News tells it, the police claim Perry then bought the TV, didn't go back to his car, and left the 2-year-old inside it.

Samsung LED, 1080P?
It better be 3D.
The creep got the TV home by another means. He never went back to his car and never missed the 2 year old nor did he report the child missing!
It cracks me up that the union knuckledraggers actually thought that they could stop these people from shopping today. LOL! Morons!
Doubtless meant as a snub to said “girlfriend” — but why make the toddler suffer? Good grief.
Barack Obama would have wanted the political capital of a “best ever black Friday” so perhaps the efforts were just token.
IIRC the line cutter had hit someone. That will get a gun pulled on you any time of the year.
Priorities people. We need to keep our priorities straight in the state of Øbomination.
News flash for Mr Matyszczyk.
The fellow in Texas was justified.
I agree 100%. Barry uses the union like a bunch of tools. You can bet he was hoping for a huge “black Friday”. The union knuckledraggers put on a show for their comrades in the state controlled “media” who ate it up today.
Oh, I doubt it was anything more than the idiot realizing (after he purchased the TV) that it would be too big to fit in his car. So, what else was he to do? Call a friend, haul it home, then come back for the car later...the fact that the car contained a “kid” probably didn’t even factor into the equation.
and he didn’t just hit someone, he punched a guy in the face. that guy then pulled his gun on the assailant.
Black Friday.
That’s racist :).
Immature mother possibly with low self esteem/worth to make the decision to allow her young child to leave with this guy. Shame on her as well.
The man who “pulled” the gun was first punched in the face. As to the kid. I would not leave a child for a 51 inch TV. Now a 65 inch 3-D LCD, thats another matter.
FR headlines are becoming unreadable.
Think about it.
“Man accused of leaving 2-year-old to buy 51-inch TV”
I understand that Christmas shopping in America has become a circus of idiots.
It is not too much of a stretch to think that some idiot left his two year old standing in his place in a line.
That is how I read the headline.
The mother of the child was working, and this cretin was supposed to be home with the toddler.
The above statement is BS. The gun was pulled because an idiot hit the permit holder in the face, the gun was not used because someone cut the line. Typical left wing BS.
