Black Friday Mayhem!
« on: November 28, 2014, 10:20:32 AM »
My favorite time of the year! Something about people clamoring for deals and then getting into a fight. It really puts me in the holiday spirit.

The article is in association with the AP so here's the link with pictures and videos and a whole mess of stories so far.

If all you want for Christmas is an ass kicking, today seems to be the day to go get it.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

Avoiding the masses today. Tomorrow, I'll celebrate 'Cigar Shop Saturday' with Moose. Much better than Black Friday.
