I guess Wal-Mart haters have reached a new low, it is now Wall -Mart's fault that people have no respect or even an ounce of humanity in them, that they do not give even a second look to a man on the floor being trampled to death. Anybody who does not find this entire situation deeply troubling is deeply troubled. I was already disgusted by this man being killed by people who wanted a good deal on things they do not need with money they do not have then I read an this article by Ann Zimmerman in the Wall Street Journal, "Wal-Mart Assailed on Death". It starts off with Wal-Mart should have better crowd control and that there is already a lawyer for the for the victim's family. Of course the family’s lawyer wants Wal-Mart to be at fault because there is no money in suing a private person or persons who are actually responsible. Reading this article my dismay quadrupled, the only people at fault for this incident are the customers who shoved their way in to the Long Island store that morning. This incident exemplifies so many problems with this society, lack of personal responsibility, un wavering materialism, selfishness and inhumanity. Would they have noticed if it was a dog they were stampeding? The idea that Wal-Mart is responsible for a greedy disgusting mob murdering one of its employees, I think adds even more insult to this man's death.
