FULL TITLE: Black Friday madness sees one person shot and another stabbed in Houston Sears parking lot, and seven people, including state lawmaker, arrested in Missouri mall protest - but experts say it was BEST shopping day in four years

Black Friday was marred for many by the usual chaos and scuffling this year - but in some places things got truly nasty.

One such incident occurred in Houston, where a fight in a car park saw one person shot and another stabbed.

Another saw the police being accused of violence after a protest in a Missouri mall ended with people reportedly being thrown into windows by cops and Bruce Franks Jr., a Missouri state representative, among those arrested.

But despite all that, experts say that - in terms of turnout, at least - Black Friday 2017 was the best in years.

So that’s probably why the Sears stores in Canada are closing for good.

Do I really need to look?
I must be racist for thinking I know who and what they are before looking, but I am betting I ma right.

Yeah, I don’t even bother anymore.

It’s no fun when you’re 99.5% correct.

Perhaps someone thought the term, Black Friday, was racist?

slavery has been a stain on this country, and we still reap the effects of it today, and now we have to hear certain demands being shouted out.

Was it not enough over half a million men died, fathers, sons, husbands, and one could say with that many killed then nearly a generation of Americans were lost.

The year before the Civil War, there was not even one Republican who owned slaves. Not one.

Startling fact never taught in schools.

Wish to take this time to remind you all that Egypt had slavery. That was not the only country to do so. These people brought this upon themselves, with a little help from FDR.

Actually the guy being cuffed in the St Louis clip at the link appears to be white. Most of the St Louis crowd appear to be white.

Oh knock it off.

You are definitely an idiot if you think that absurd shopping holiday consists of black people only making fools of themselves.
