Black Friday

Black Friday is the day when millions of average Americans wait outside retail stores in the middle of the night in the freezing cold to spend more money that they do not have for more cheap Chinese-made products that they do not need. It is a day when the rest of the world makes fun of Americans for behaving like “rabid animals.”

It truly is a shameful orgy of materialism.  It is being projected that approximately 140 million Americans will participate in this disgusting national ritual this year. Sadly, most of them have absolutely no idea that they are actively participating in the destruction of the economic infrastructure of the United States.  If you don’t understand why this is true, please be sure to read this entire article.

The amount of merchandise that is purchased on Black Friday is staggering.  For example, just consider how much stuff is sold approximately 140 million Americans:

Wal-Mart said it recorded more than 10 million register transactions between 6 p.m. and 10 p.m. Thursday in its stores and nearly 400 million page views that day on walmart.com. It sold 2.8 million towels, 2 million televisions, 1.4 million tablets, 300,000 bicycles and 1.9 million dolls. Big-ticket electronics like big-screen TVs and new videogame consoles were among the top sellers.

Every year, Black Friday seems to bring out the worst in many people, and this year was certainly no exception. The following are just a few of the national headlines about the rioting and the violence that were witnessed…

-“Holiday shopping season kicks off with fights, arrests”

-“Violence flares as shoppers slug it out for best Black Friday deals”

-“Watch Screaming Mobs Fight Over Televisions At Wal-Mart”

-“Two Arrested After Stabbing Over Parking Space At Wal-Mart”

-“Rialto Walmart Thanksgiving brawl sends one police officer to hospital”

-“Walmart Ejects Customer For Filming Violent ‘Black Thursday’ Mobs”

-“Cops: Shoplifting suspect shot after dragging officer”

And sometimes the violence extends out into the parking lots and into the surrounding neighborhoods. In Las Vegas, a man that was carrying a big-screen television home from Target was shot in the leg…

According to police, a man purchased a big-screen television from the Target store near Flamingo Rd. and Maryland Pkwy. While he was walking to a nearby apartment complex, a man approached and fired a warning shot, causing the victim to drop the television, police said.

Officers tell 8 News NOW the gunman then took the television to a nearby car that was waiting, where a second man helped the gunman load the TV into the car.

The victim approached the two men and tried to get the television back. That prompted the gunman to fire several more rounds, shooting the victim in the leg.
