Black Friday!


The day after Thanksgiving is known to be the busiest shopping day of the year. Stores and malls open at 5:00 a.m and people are already lined up outside with camping tents from the night before to get great deals on Holiday gifts. Although it isn't an official holiday, many people are off from work which increases the number of shoppers. This is alone a Wal-Mart employee in Valley Stream, New York was trampled to death by shoppers who broke through the stores window before its scheduled opening time. A pregnant women was also hospitalized from being stampeded by a group of people. These two incidents alone should be the reason for Black Friday to be canceled. I think that all of the sales should only be available online because of the crazy people who go far beyond due to sale prices. Having the sales online would be much more safer and realistic because this country has gone crazy on this day.
