One more reason why I participated in
buy nothing day.
Women Trampled By Fellow ShoppersMs Ellzey said some shoppers had tried to help her sister, and one employee helped rescue the woman, but most people just continued their rush for deals.
“All they cared about was a stupid DVD player,” she said.
“I told them, ‘Stop stepping on my sister! She’s on the ground!’”
Ms Ellzey said Wal-Mart officials called later to ask after her sister, and the store apologised and offered to put a DVD player on hold for her.
What an awesome allegory for capitalism and the problems with our society.
