Wal-Mart is working closely with police, company spokesman Dan Fogleman said.

"The safety and security of our customers and associates is our top priority," Fogleman said. "Our thoughts and prayers are with them and their families at this difficult time."


Yeah, right! They have these Black Friday sales with huge discounts on items that are in very limited quantities, and they don't know that folks are going to crowd and push and shove and even fight to get at them, even though the same thing happens somewhere every year, often at a Walmart. As with all major retailers, profit is their top priority, and don't you ever forget it!

You say, "profit," like it was a bad thing. <g>

It is a bad thing when they're stealing from the average worker to create it. It isn't bad at all when they're paying their workers a fair wage, and cahrging reasonable prices.




"Stealing"? Any business that doesn't make a profit must close its doors. I disagree that all profit is theft.
