What Took So Long?...

"Victim's kin file suit in Wal-Mart stampede death"

I was beginning to think that the bloodsucking vampire lawyers were all safely sleeping in their dirt filled coffins in the basements of their tree lined McMansion subdivisions before I read this one.

Thank God opportunity strikes! And at Wal-Mart no less.

Well, I'm actually not surprised that they were going to sue but I am surprised it took so long for them to file the lawsuit. 3 business days! I mean Christmas is fast approaching and you'd think they'd want that Wal-Mart money AT LEAST before the end of this week to get that Wii game system or new flat screen LCD TV. Because you know, they'll be all sold out before the 25th...

I don't get why they are suing the police department though. It's not like it's their job to "police" the doorways of every retail store giving away free toasters or kitty litter with every $100.00 in purchases. You'd think the managers of said stores would somehow herd the crowd in some form BEFORE the doors are opened, but, alas this happens every year.

Next year I'm taking bets on which store will have the first casualty. I'm placing mine on Fashion Bug, the store for "Rubenesque" or zoftig women...
