That's so ridiculous. It's "Kitty Genovese" syndrome--a woman in New York in the 1960s got raped and murdered in front of her apartment building, people saw the attack and heard it, but NOBODY CALLED THE COPS. People saw her and just assumed someone else would do something. But of course, if everybody waits for someone else, nobody helps and someone goes to the ER over a fucking toy or dies in front of their own house.
I avoid Wal-Mart at all costs anyway, everyday at Wal-Mart is like that around here. And we're so close to the border, goddamn it's terrible. People come up from Mexico to shop and they have to stock up on everything (and dispute every price with a newspaper advertisement) and it gets really disgustingly crowded. A woman got beat the hell up in the parking lot the day after Christmas over a parking spot. Guess what?...nobody did anything.
