What the hell could anyone protest in the socialist state of Canada? Hell, I thought socialism was
the answer to all that ails (no pun intended) one.

Occupying has just become the trendy thing to do if you have too much
time on your hands and just discovered that the world is sometimes
unfair.

Good Lord..... *sounds like you're breeding a whole passel of Snotty
types down there.
Some local merchants are finally giving us 'Black Friday' savings
too... mostly to try and keep Canadian shoppers home and away from the
madness.
The wife and I went down to pick up my Christmas present and it was so
quiet and civilized at the Staples store.
No one even talking in a loud voice.

Violence erupted overnight during Black Friday shopping as at least 24
people were injured in a series of incidents, including nine at Walmart

Violence erupted overnight during Black Friday shopping as at least 24
people were injured in a series of incidents, including nine at Walmart
stores in the U.S.

In Fruitport Township, authorities say a teenage girl was trampled at a
western Michigan Walmart store and suffered minor injuries after getting
caught in a rush to a sale in the electronics department.

The Muskegon Chronicle reports the girl was taken to a local hospital
this morning. Fruitport Township Supervisor Brian Werschem says the girl
was knocked down and stepped on several times in the store near Muskegon.

In Los Angeles, authorities said a woman shot pepper spray to keep
shoppers from merchandise she wanted during a Black Friday sale, and 20
people suffered minor injuries.

The incident occurred shortly after 10:20 p.m. Thursday in a crowded
Walmart as shoppers hungry for deals were let inside the store.

Police said the suspect shot the pepper spray when the coverings over
electronics items she wanted were removed.

"Somehow she was trying to use it to gain an upper hand," police Lt.
Abel Parga told The Associated Press early today.

Parga said police were still looking for the woman. The store remained
open and those not affected by the pepper spray continued shopping.

In Florence, Ala., a shopper was subdued with a stun gun at a Walmart
store as shoppers gathered for Black Friday sales.

WAFF-TV reports police said they used a stun gun twice to gain control
of 22-year-old Christopher Blake Pyron before arresting him.

Police said they made the arrest around 11 p.m. Thursday, about an hour
after the Alabama Walmart opened its doors for late-night and
early-morning shopping. Authorities said he is charged with public
intoxication, disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.

In Northern California, authorities said a Black Friday shopper is in
critical but stable condition after being shot by armed robbers outside
a Walmart store.

San Leandro police Sgt. Mike Sobek says the victim and his family were
walking to their car around 1:45 a.m. when they were confronted by a
group of men who demanded their purchases. When the family refused, a
fight broke out and one of the robbers shot the man.

Sobek says other family members wrestled down one of the suspects, who
was taken into police custody.

Investigators are reviewing store surveillance video to identify at
least three other suspects.

Witnesses say the Walmart parking lot was crowded with Black Friday
shoppers at the time, and the store was briefly closed as police
investigated.

In North Carolina, one man was arrested after a holiday shopping scuffle
at a Walmart store in Kinston which police quelled with pepper spray.

Public Safety Director Bill Johnson says the incident happened early
Friday. An off-duty Kinston officer was working a security detail for
the store when some customers began trying to get electronic equipment
that wasn't yet available for purchase.

Johnson says the off-duty officer used a short burst of pepper spray in
the air to control the scene. Johnson says no one was sprayed in the
face or eyes.

One man was arrested, but information on the charges he is facing was
not immediately available.

Shopper Angel Bunting told WITN-TV that the incident began when a man
waiting in line for discounted cell phones fell into a display.

In central Florida, a man is behind bars after a fight broke out at a
jewelry counter during Black Friday.

Kissimmee, Fla., police tell the Orlando Sentinel that two men were
fighting at a Walmart store during Friday's early hours. One man
resisted when a police officer tried to escort him out of the store.
Officers had to force him to the ground to put him in handcuffs.

The unidentified man is charged with resisting arrest. No shoppers were
hurt.

In the Toledo suburb of Oregon, police responded to three separate
reports of fighting at a Walmart on Thursday night. One officer told The
Blade newspaper that one of the fights was over towels selling for $1.88.

In upstate New York, police said two women were injured and a man
charged after a fight broke out at a Walmart.

In Colorado, a bomb threat today prompted the evacuation of employees
and customers of a Woodland Park Walmart for about four hours as police
and federal agents checked for explosive devices but found none.

Woodland Park police dispatch supervisor Karen Glenn says the threat
arrived around 8:30 a.m. CST today during one of the busiest shopping
days of the holiday season. Police from Colorado Springs as well as
agents with the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives
Bureau responded.

A check of the store that included the use of a bomb sniffing dog found
nothing.

Glenn said officials declared the store safe around 11:30 a.m. and were
planned allow employees back inside around noon.

WalMart Stores Inc. officials did not immediately return a message.

In non-violent shopping related Walmart news, in northern Ohio, Black
Friday shoppers had to leave their bargains behind when a car accident
knocked out power, forcing the store to be evacuated.

A driver hit a utility pole near the store just before midnight near the
town of Port Clinton, along Lake Erie.

Authorities from around the area including police, firefighters and
agents from the U.S. Customs& Border Patrol were called in to get
hundreds of Black Friday shoppers out of the Walmart.

The State Highway Patrol says the driver who caused the blackout had
been drinking and was arrested.

In the Phoenix suburb of Buckeye, police are coming under fire for a
video posted online Friday that shows a grandfather unconscious on the
floor of a Walmart with a bloody face after police said he was caught
trying to shoplift.

The video shows 54-year-old Jerald Allen Newman unconscious and covered
in blood after a police officer took him to the ground Thursday night.

Officers in the video are shown trying to sop up blood as outraged
customers yell expletives and say, ?That?s police brutality,? and ?He
wasn?t doing anything.?

The man?s wife and other witnesses say that Newman was trying to help
his young grandson after the boy was trampled by shoppers, and only put
a video game in his waistband to free his hands to help the boy.

I'm hopeful there are a great number of lawsuites with WalMart as the
defendant for failing to provide proper security. This is not the first
year of serious trouble on Black Friday at WalMart stores.

Gee, no blame on the idiots that are so greedy and low life that they
resort to this violent crap, eh?

Some people can turn into real animals when It comes to trying to save
a nickel.


Or trying to make a nickel.

I still want to know where was Fox's outrage when the teapartiers were
protesting? And the hard core right wing thinks Fox is fair and
balanced...!!
