This is disgusting. Tragic, and disgusting.

It will be interesting to see where the blame for that falls.

Obviously it's not likely to be possible to work out much from security camera footage. Hopefully the shop won't end up taking the blame, but I wouldn't be surprised.

Alot of stores now give out tickets for certain items. Ppl usually line up
early to get one (Best Buy had ppl lined up at 10am on Turkey Day), and
only received one of the item(s). I went to a store and staied up late but
was able to get a great deal on a labtop and a 46in :)
WalMart, Target, Kmart, and other stores that doesn't have a "line" or
"order" doesn't help, because ppl just end up all huddled by the door. N
just like what happened, when the door opened, its a "free for all". Pushing,
kicking, punching their way thru....

a great example of the disregard for human life.

All I can say is that karma is a bitch.....
