Default America has bred the perfect Consumer!

Or has it?

I went to the Walmart in my parent's town on Thanksgiving around 8pm. I was driving back to the hotel and I saw it PACKED! Therefore I went in, and expected to interview people about why they are there. Instead I saw this, videoed it, and was promptly kicked out of the store
Video footage is 49 secs.

Walmart madness:

Yep, nothing like trampling others to save a few bucks on a TV. Consumerism and mental issues all balled into one.

Not being rascist, but around my way the Walmarts got the same if not worse from other trash of other colors. Fat black welfare queens, who got nicer and newer cars than I do. This is not a white biased thing, but poverty based perhaps.

Amazing they can pay for a 2 year old benz or BMW on welfare and food stamps. (I won't even be approved for a loan from them) freaking amazing

Am I automatically a rascist for pointing that out?

I bet if car companies asked for check stubs to back up payment, that crap would dry out.

I bet the gov't could disqualify a bunch of disability claims if they just attended black friday sales.

Watching that reminds me I really, really, really need to purchase a rifle just in case the ACA is the straw that breaks the camels back.
