What is Wrong With People?

Does anyone else get the feeling that people have entirely forgotten the spirit of Christmas?
Wal-Mart worker dies in rush; two killed at toy store

(CNN) -- Three violent deaths in two stores marred the opening of the Christmas shopping season Friday.


A Wal-Mart employee at this Long Island location was killed in a rush early Friday morning.

1 of 3 In the first, a temporary Wal-Mart employee was trampled to death in a rush of thousands of early morning shoppers as he and other employees attempted to unlock the doors of a Long Island, New York, store at 5 a.m., police said.

In the second, unrelated incident, two men were shot dead in a Toys "R" Us in Palm Desert, California, after they argued in the store, police said.

Incredibly sad and senseless. I'm so glad to be out of that mess. That mess being toy crazed parents and kids. It's sick.
