Black Friday gets even bleaker.
Remember in 2008 when Barack Obama promised to restore the perception of America abroad? On hand at a Walmart near Little Rock, Arkansas today were throngs of Black Friday shoppers hell-bent on keeping that image tarnished, thank you very much.
Walmart put a mini waffle maker on sale for 2 dollars. As WBTV news notes, the mini waffle iron makes only 2 waffles at a time, but the store carries a larger 4-at-a-time version at a much higher price per waffle.
With supply limited and demand for said waffle iron apparently sky-high, the crowd launched headlong into that great American tradition known as the retail riot.
The retail riot isn’t exactly a new phenomenon—it’s at least as old as Tickle-Me Elmo—but this may be the first riot over a 2 dollar item in history. It’s likely a sign of the continued brutal economy that has 1 in 3 Americans either in poverty or “near poverty,” and has to be the most topical Black Friday story this year along with the woman who co-opted cops’ favorite toy of 2011, pepper spray, to mow down the competition for an Xbox 360.
Get yourself in the Christmas spirit by checking out the video below.

Abc, it’s sad really that we’ve come down to this. As my husband says, we should lock up the people and let the animals run free.

I wonder what Mr. Walmart would think about all this? What has happened to the Christmas holiday? It’s NOT about the freakin’ presents…it’s about FAMILY, FOOD, and being together and GRATEFUL for what you have. I still give baked goodies from my oven at Christmas, a tradition passed down from my mother and grandmother.

Waffle iron? The butt shot of the woman in the blue t-shirt says she don’t need no mini-waffler.

Absolutely disgusting. The fat women with 4 waffle irons should have been arrested for indecent exposure and she should be ashamed of herself. but she won’t be because people like her are beyond shame. She has no respect for herself therefore she has no respect for others. Do away with Black Friday before
a number of people are injured or killed.
