I fail to understand why people do that, over here in scotland we've never ever seen anything like that before
Are you a consumerist nation disguised as a democracy? Are your people slaves to shopping idiocy that for some reason is based around the day after Thanksgiving being somehow the biggest shopping day in the country?
No? That would be why. America is founded on hypocrisy and elemental stupid unfortunately.
America was not founded on that (well ok, yes hypocrisy), merely this is what it's become.

Oh for.....Geez it's like every single country is a land of happiness and flowers but America is some awful place where everyone is a raving lunatic. Yes America has some serious problems but insulting the country has become some massive internet sensation.

As corrupt as it is America really isn't that bad of a place. There are FAR worse places on earth to be. No one is perfect

On Topic: Wal-Mart shoppers like this are on the same mental scale as a locust horde.

Sure there's far worse places, and of course, good guys and nice things dont make the news, and don't get reported.

Still, I'd be pissed if I got my hands on the last box same time as someone else... but I'm not gonna fight for it, certainly not wrestle around on the floor.

It's partly being english, and we'd just 'die' inside if we were to make a scene, lol.

Also tho, its an xbox 360, the way they were handling those, enjoy your RROD when you get home! (not a bash at 360, but damn, that's fragile tech stuff, not a bag of cheetos)

Nearly as good as the guy that got trampled to death, nearly. If you think it's messed up that I think it's funny, then check out that post of mine and you'll understand why.

10,000 RROD ridden 360s are returned to a wal-mart in the same people, but with ten times the violence.
Best. Line. Evar!

I don't really understand those people, though. I mean, fighting over a PS3 I can understand. :D (Lemme guess, satire fail?)

Congratulations to everyone who took part; the example you set for your children and others around you will no doubt inspire the next generation of cheeseburger-sucking meatheads to even greater heights of selfish, callous and reprehensible behavior.

I live in America. I'd take suicide religious bombings over glorifying retardation. At least then we'd have a half decent reason why our people just randomly die.
*facepalm* Well now, since you LIVE in America, you can say things like that and you can also act on them! If you truly mean what you say, go right ahead and move out of this country and see first hand that you would rather "Glorify retardation" than "take suicide religious bombings."

Seriously, think before you post.

No, but with incidents like this you can understand why some people may get that impression.

If you think that quote was directed at every American, then you're just being foolish. Read the bold text.

You may fire when ready. God it's things like this that actually make me hate mankind with a passion.
