That is disgraceful. How can people be so materialistic that they can trample over people to buy something. The only other time I have seen anything like this was when 96 football fans were crushed and trampled to death at Hillborough football ground in 1989, home to Sheffield Wednesday Football Club. I feel so sad for that mans family.
As a point of interest, how would you feel if it were possibility to criminalise the actions of the mob in the case this week. Say if by the store cameras they could identify the crowd, would it be appropriate to charge them with ''X'' offence, say for example wanton negligence as to endanger human life (I just made that up). Even if there was no real penalty. I mean this more of a socal justice than penal measure. Should this mob ''get away with it''. Are there lessons to be learned for the next mob and how can they learn without consequences? At least at the football matches they were trying to escape, this was shopping for crying out loud....
