In American We Trample Each Other (to buy things on Black Friday one day after being thankful for what we already have)

What were you thankful for two days ago?

November 25, 2017 - Before their Thanksgiving dinners could settle, many Americans left their family gatherings and swooped down on department stores and big-box retailers to take part in rampant and many times violent Black Friday greed.

Let the Buyer Beware?

Mindless shoppers aren't even getting the great discounts they cherish since retailers artificially inflate prices of goods in the months before the sales in order to make the subsequent discounts look good in comparison. Also, even if shoppers do manage to grab some genuine discounts, they will invariably buy another product that has also been over priced just for the occasion.

If we take a step back to observe this nonsense, it is very difficult to tell the difference between ''The Walking Dead'' and Black Friday shoppers. What the hell? But seriously, it is no surprise. The American consumers are now like trained monkeys, trained to consume. (see They Live! a movie about a ruling class that are manipulating people to spend money, breed, and accept the status quo with subliminal messages in mass media.)

When the shopping began late THANKSGIVING night, so did the disgusting display savagery and greed.

Immediately after listing how thankful they were for everything in their lives, people fled to the store to fill their lives with more things. So far, two people have been killed and a flood of videos are popping up showing shoppers shoving, hitting, and knocking each other over just to get a precieved bargain.

Here's a video of grown men fighting over a toy car:

In spite of police stepping up their presences to battle the notoriously violent Black Friday stampedes, it appears that the threat of being arrested and jailed is no deterrent to those unable to resist a sale.

An entire mall in Hoover, Alabama was forced to shut down after brawls erupted inside. The shoe-laden battle was captured on video from a bystander showing scattered clothes and displays as security and cops tore angry women apart.

This is America, and this is human nature that has been magnified by the wrong message; ''More is more happiness''

It is not.
