Somewhere, Baby Jesus Just Shit Himself

This whole "Black Friday" shit is getting out of control.

When we're killing Wal Mart employees to be the first one in town to get the "it" gift this season, something is seriously, seriously wrong with our society:

A worker was killed in the crush Friday after a throng of shoppers eager for post-Thanksgiving bargains burst through the doors at a suburban Wal-Mart, authorities said.

[...]

"He was bum-rushed by 200 people," co-worker Jimmy Overby, 43, told the Daily News. "They took the doors off the hinges. He was trampled and killed in front of me. They took me down too. ... I literally had to fight people off my back."

This is terrible. The deceased worker was 34 years old. One can only guess he had a spouse, perhaps some kids. They now get to bury their loved one for Christmas. All so a bunch of crazed suburbanites could save a couple hundred dollars on a 50' flat screen tv.

Sure, that's a fair fucking trade-off - a life for a flat screen.

What the fuck is wrong with you fucking animals??!!

This has managed to piss off the Hot Rod. If life was fair, and it's not, I'd get 10 minutes alone in a room with no windows and only one door with each of those 200 callous, inhuman motherfuckers who killed this unfortuante son-of-bitch. Just me, them, and a baseball bat. Parade 'em in, one-by-one for some Old Testament-style justice.

I am sure there is a special place reserved in hell for those who would so lose sight of the true purpose of Christmas that they would kill a man to get a better seat in the temple of consumerism.
