I just read this really sad news article on yahoo.com, that an innocent Wal-Mart worker was trampled to death at an American outlet.

who is to blame?
the shoppers, who were so blinded by consumerism that they took a man's life and rushed past his body lying on the ground in a mad pursuit of material things?
Or is Wal-Mart management, for psyching up customers with first come, first served and door-buster deals but not implementing any safety measures?

Probably both!
When I first read this news article I asked myself, where is humanity heading? What has happened to common courtesy? I thought of old black and white movies with all the polite characters and their excellent manners and of times when etiquette was not only a strange word. When "be polite at all times"

in reply to your blog about wal-mart..the personnel that owns wal-mart doesn't care about their employees,as there are so many lawsuits against them it isn't funny..you can look their lawsuits up on your computer and read what i am saying..
