Report: Black Friday Campers Pepper Sprayed In Sacramento Area

[scott]

Just saw it crawl across the screen. Some Black Friday protesters outside of a Best Buy in Sacramento were pepper sprayed by offices for obstructing a walk way.

More details to come.

In addition, apparently there was a pepper-spray incident in LA too.

They pepper spray protesters for the same reason... only makes sense

Hopefully, they'll get sprayed by some irritated shoppers.

Looks like the pepper spray craze is taking off. Shopper-on-shopper action. Darrin must be in heaven.

Sorry people but the elephant in the room is that all these black Friday incidents involve black people (not racist)

Fail.

I distinctly saw an arrest in a Wal-Mart which involved whites. This was covered on CNN.

Wal-Mart is stupid for encouraging this kind of behavior in the first place. When the PS3 launched at Best Buy the store took everyone's names as they entered the line so that no one would cut and people could go and take bathroom breaks and then they handed out one coupon per person starting from #1 to be redeemed for the system they wanted to buy. It kept everything orderly and rewarded people for showing up first and not for acting stupid and bulling through. I can't see why Wal-Mart wouldn't do the same just to cover their asses from lawsuits.

That would involve scheduling several extra wage slaves, thereby blowing their payroll for the month.

If by several you mean one wage slave, then yeah, that cocksucking company is probably too cheap to do it.
