My husband and I heard about it this evening while enjoying a cocktail after a peaceful day of gift shopping in Asheville, NC where my in-laws live. We were (and still are) horrified. Butbwe feel that Wal-Mart itself and other large retailers are culpable more than the shoppers. (although their behavior is reprehensible and disgusting.) Wal-Mart knowingly created this frenzy by offering this "special" sale. It's a game to them. Sam Walton and/or other execs should personally pay a condolence call to the families of the victims, pay all medical and funeral expenses, and pay to the families the victims' lost earnings for the remainder of the years they could have worked.
