Seriously do you think some poor guy just trying to do his job getting killed by a bunch of greedy losers is funny? I know your young and you think your indestructable but are you saying that you would be proud of being involved with that.

If so just go introduce yourself to bubba in prison right now cause your going to be right popular.

If you truly don't, there's no reason for anyone to try to explain it to you.

Welcome to the Nintendo generation. There is a complete loss of the true gravity of death and destruction, since its ALL you basically see from a kid these days in video games and on tv.

I've had friends killed at work.

I've known people get killed when their gas station was robbed.

Friends of mine were at "The Who" concert back in the 70's when 11 people were killed trying to get in. One friend lost her brother. Task Force

I used to work retail and have seen some stupid stuff from animals, I mean customers.

Most of us are old enough that something like this has happened to someone we know at some point in our life. If the was your Dad or brother or son or a friend, you'd care.

Well since BigKen is vouching for ya, i will just leave it alone, and move on! So i went out today, at 7am, took the bike! Had intentions of buying a nintendo ds for the monkey! well holy bizquik! Evidently Target was giving out the deals based on the weight of the shopper, or something along those lines!!!! I could see it wouldnt take much to create a stampede! And just for the record.... If you must use a rascal scooter or power chair.....STAY HOME!!!!!! I know we have a few mwmbers here that rely on these devices, so i am somewhat sympathetic, but seriously!!!! I got anklecapped by one cow in one, she just barreled through with no regards to anyone or anything!! WENCH!!!! Needless to say, i left Target very fast, without parting with any money! Then i am walking to my bike about a step behind and to the side of a rather large woman, and as we got to my bike she let her cart go, continuing on its path towards my bike while she put on her coat! Man you talk about seeing red..... it missed by about 2 inches, then she notices me and says excuse me. Man i was getting ready to pick up her cart and heave it across the parking lot. some people! and how about the jayholes and there need to fly through the parking lots in there cars!!!! I found what i needed, i was in and out of best buy in 10 minutes! Dont let me do it next year!!!! Dan
