3 Dead

While the horror of Mumbai was unfolding over Thanksgiving reports were emerging that 3 people died on black Friday and others were injured. What is wrong with us that a man is trampled to death at a Walmart by hundreds of shoppers stampeding through the doors. Two people were killed at a Toys R Us store. 

It is hard to fathom that a civilized nation lives like this. Trampled to death so people can get the present they want for Christmas. I hope they review the tapes; identify the offenders and prosecute them. 

For one family this is going to be a miserable Christmas. Pray for the Walmart employee's family.
