Wal-Mart sets it up like this on purpose. They encourage this behavior.

I've seen more dignity from people in famine ravaged third world countries going for food.

I blame Walmart for creating this type of shopping mentality. It's like the Jerry Springer Show.

If they keep getting crowds like this, they should be required to have more workers and crowd control. This should NOT be allowed. I see these videos every year and every year they get worse and worse. Wal-Mart knows this is going to happen. They are too cheap to hire people to control the large crowds and offer such limited amounts of products on sale that people have to fight to get an item. This is ridiculous. Wal-Mart should NOT be allowed to get away with creating this kind of havoc.

16. At 1:24 there is a loud siren and what appear to be police officers

A male shopper puts his hand up in the air and there are men in uniform pulling people back.

Wouldn't be at all surprised if they were from the local police force on the public dime. WM is a huge drain on municipal services. Our PD gets called to pick up shoplifters from our local WM at least half a dozen times a day, and that's a slow day.
