NYTimes: “Wal-Mart Employee Trampled to Death

CNN.com: “Wal-Mart Worker dies in rush; two killed at toy store

What is wrong with people?  I know times are tough but no discount is worth KILLING over!  And you wonder why kids act the way they do – they see it from the adults around them and on the news.  I want to know do the people who trampled this poor man to death, who ignored and/or pushed the people who were trying to give aide out of the way, who continued on with their shopping, even have a conscience?  Have they stopped to reflect that they are all responsible for a mans death?  That said, how can we use this incident to educate our own students so they don’t repeat this horrible tragedy?
