This all gets over blown in my opinion.

Personally, I enjoy Thanksgiving with family and friends. I do not go shopping on Black Friday. I do not go shopping the evening of Thanksgiving.

But I don’t want to pass laws or discourage anyone from shopping.

Some employees actually like to work on Thanksgiving or other holidays, because of getting overtime pay.

If a business can make money opening on Thanksgiving, it should be their choice, in my opinion.

On the other hand, if nobody shows up to shop Thanksgiving evening or in the wee hours of Black Friday morning, retailers would not be opening up.

We have enough busy bodies in our lives, without having busy bodies telling us when to go shopping.

How will his life be better if these people are home eating turkey with their families?

We had Thanksgiving dinner at 12. College daughter is napping and going to work 5:30-3am tonight. She is happy to make some extra money on her break.
