Walmart did an excellent job in controlling the crowds during Black Friday this year.
At least that is what the mainstream media is telling us.
But then again, they were not exactly allowed to enter the stores to see for themselves (except for four pre-selected locations in the country).
While we’re all relieved that nobody lost their life this year, the chaos seemed uncontrollable, according to the above video which was submitted by a Photography is Not a Crime reader.
I’m betting we’ll be seeing more videos in the next few days.

Fernandez, as I mentioned in a 
I think that this video is less of a reflection on Wal-Mart than it is on their customers. It seems as though we have become a nation full of mindless savages with no sense of how to behave appropriately in public.
Man, you’re not kidding! What losers these people are.
Don’t blame WalMart for those actions. It can be seen all over. Manners and respect for other people are ebbing.
It’s true that this happens anywhere and not just Walmart, however Walmart did make a concerted effort to suppress bad press by prohibiting reporters from covering the stores except for a select few carefully chosen ones.
It reminds me of the old Soviet tricks where they would invite the press into a few well stocked stores to show how great things were while prohibiting the press from seeing the thousands of other stores with bare shelves.
I guess if the press can’t see it then it didn’t happen
What a bunch of savages. All of this crap for some shitty consumer goods that either A) won’t work in two years, or B) will be sitting on a shelf collecting dust because the next “must have” thing will be out.
You’d think this was a Red Cross food handout in some third world country.
Reverend Billy would be ashamed!
Where did this occur, anymore details? I would like to write about it a bit more
All I can say is that this occurred somewhere in the USA
Nice melee, the little savages. Did anyone else hear, “Mom… we got it, we got it, we got it!” near the end of the clip? I can’t imagine wanting something that bad … not since GI Joe with Kung-Fu Action Grip!
The scene looked as though, seconds before, Walmart clerks had just put out a pile of boxes of … something. Robotic hamsters of the apocalypse?
The camera’s relatively clear view and high vantage point would seem to indicate that the videographer is someone who’s not worried about being caught videotaping inside a Walmart… idle speculation.
Look forward to more, but be careful not to give away your location. Don’t want a repeat of the Domino’s Pizza Youtube incident.
I personally blame the police for this.
Private property is just as much of a right as photography. Wal Mart is totally within their rights to not allow news cameras on the property if they so wish. Your camera does not trump the rights of the property owner.
What did you expect ?!

Sorry, man. I hate Walmart and refuse to shop there, but unless you provide some verifiable deets, this could easily be a video from last year. We only win by being honest.
Jim,
The video came from an inside source which is why I am not providing further “verifiable deets.”
You either take my word on it that it’s from this year or you don’t. It don’t make any difference to me.
However, if it were from last year, then it would have been posted last year.
Looks like they’re grabbing boxes of Rock Band Beatles Edition, which came out only this year. It’s hard to tell because the quality’s so bad, but that’s what it looks like to me.
Looks like something you’d expect to see in some savage muslim country.
If we don’t get control over our borders, this sort of behavior is gonna spread to Target, KMart, Home Depot, the Piggly Wiggly and even Burger King, and most highway gas stations.
If it ever spreads all the way to Lowe’s, you can go ahead and take that as a sign that the End Times are upon us!

Next year I shall make a point to attend Walmart on Black Friday. I shall stand in the middle of the melee and scream, “WHERE IS THE CHEESE AISLE? WHERE IS THE CHEESE AISLE?” The End Times may be upon me at that time, but I WILL be anointed with tasty cheese food products.
That is the old Rock Band they are battling for. Pathetic.
Wow, I’ve seen some stupid trolls, and some stupid racists, but “Hipple, Rev Paul T.” (whatever the fuck that name means) may just be the stupidest racist troll I’ve ever come across.
Let’s get this straight… we need to control our borders to prevent the kind of behavior that’s already going on with in them? Brilliant.
Seriously, Carols, I know you don’t like to delete comments and good on you for it, but does having that KKK shit up there really help anyone?
