I Don't Shop With YOU

It's the time of the year where everybody assumes it's Christmas and great holiday deals pop up once again. An opportunity appears for children and teenagers to constantly beg their parents for an Xbox One or some Beats headphones because these products have major discounts and deals on the Friday after Thanksgiving. People go to stores such as Best Buy and Target to buy these discounted products before they're all sold out. However, on Black Friday, things can go from a simple shopping spree to a complete disaster.

Realizing that people have no disregard for human life in order to get themselves or their children a gift that's half off is a ridiculous and downright stupid scenario.

November 2008. A Wal-Mart worker in Long Island was trampled and killed by a Black Friday stampede. The ravenous crowd of 2,000 people were eager to get inside Wal-Mart. After chanting "push the doors in," they took the doors off their hinges and barreled inside, killing Jdymytai Damour and injuring the cops trying to give him CPR.




There's no good in trying to race for the best deals if one is going to injure or kill innocent people. It just shows the stupidity and ignorance the public has. It's downright rude and just plain wrong if one thinks it's ok to use a person as a stepping stone to buy that NutriBullet that's $10 dollars off.

People need to be more considerate of others. The picture you see above symbolizes a society that's slowly falling apart. No good could possibly come in the future if this keeps up. People need to start learning to be less greedy and have some manners. So the next time you go Black Friday shopping, think about whether it'd be worth it or not to take a man's life just to save $20 on a TV.
