Boy people have the wrong values. It's just a pair of shoes. Not only that they are shoes made in China by people that make no money and work in miserable conditions. They are also shoes made by a money hungry company that took American jobs away when they moved to China for cheap labor. People need to wake up and boycott companies like this instead of fighting to get their products.

Man do you believe this crap? What the heck is wrong with people? Get all excited about a damn pair of shoes.

Got a hint for those people: shoes will not make you a better person.

Appalling.

How pitiful is this! As 12:11 points out, we do have misplaced values. We've seen other stories like this, such as big sales that leave people injured as other trample over them to get a desired item. There have been articles of young men being killed for a pair of shoes. We need to think of the millions of people in the world that wear cardboard shoes or none at all.

Here's a suggestion to limit the number of people beating each other up for tennis shoes. You must present a current pay stub in order to purchase a pair. There goes 85% of the "unruly mob".
