Black Friday (it's too early, I know)

So in one of my classes in school we have to read Get Real by Mara Rockliff and there was this little "fun" fact in it saying "On Thanksgiving Day, Americans sit down at their tables and give thanks for what they have. Then the next day, they rush out and grab more. Sometimes the bargin-hunting frenzy spins out of control--as in 2008, when overeager shoppers stormed a Wal-Mart on Long Island, smashing the glass doors ans trampling a store employee." Not that there's anything wrong with black friday shopping (by the way, I think the employee died after that). But next time people, please don't kill anyone.
