The Worst Possible Way To Go...

- Number 2

Sometimes you read a story that makes you weep for humanity. Then there are stories like this, in which you begin to pray for the asteroid to hit and wipe us out already.

A worker at a Long Island Wal-Mart - a store walking distance from home - was killed when the mob outside tore the fucking doors off their hinges and trampled him to death. Because apparently a human fucking life is less important than $30 off a new flat screen TV.

I don't want to get to philosophical, but seriously, is there any more pointless way to die? Trampled to death by a stampede of people looking to get into a fucking sale? I hope every person there gets charged with Manslaughter, if not felony murder for their actions (they ripped the doors down rather than wait for the store to open, that has to be breaking and entering, and the death was a result of the felonious act).

Oh yeah, and in case you think it can't get much worse, it does. Apparently the cops on scene are having to deal with another mob of people getting agitated because the store - where a man was killed a few hours earlier - is closed. They have a squad in riot gear manning the police line in front of the store because people are raging at the cops for not letting them into the Wal-Mart. Fucking animals.
