        In Long Island it all started even before the doors were open for the big event on Black Friday. A day that is known by all. Just for retail prices to be dropped down in price. 2,000 people gathered outside the Wal-Mart's doors chanting "push the doors in," the crowd pressed against the glass as it was time to open the doors. They took the doors off the hinges from all the fighting to get into the store. Officers who arrived to perform CPR on the trampled worker were stepped on, a cop at the scene said.
         The 34 year old Walmart employee Jdimytai Damour,was trampled down,was pronounced dead at 6:03 a.m. a little over an hour that all this began. The 28-year-old pregnant woman and  also three other shoppers were taken to area hospitals with minor injuries, police said stated.
          When reading this it is very devastating to hear. People commenting after they tried to shut down the store because one employee died and others were injured. A women commented I have been standing in line sense Friday morning and they kept continuing to shop. Its embarrassing to see how many people didn't care what they did to this man and to others that were injured.



Something I find Interesting

          Something that I find interesting is my fluffy puppy, his name is Bentley. When my parents went to go pick him up in the middle of July from a family who raised this breed of dogs which is Peekapoo. Sense I was already in Marshal with Kayla school supply shopping for our Senior year.  My parents later also came into Marshall  picked up the dog from the previous owners. We went to go meet up with them at the Cenex gas station, sense we were out getting pizza. At first glance seeing our new puppy that my parents wanted he was sure raised on a farm from the way he looked."I said out loud, that this dog needs a bath, a hair cut and a breath mint." He was adorable I knew rite away that he would be a great addition to our family because it was just my parents & I. Bentley was scared in the car at first but then he was all cuddled up on my lap. Still til this day he wont sit anywhere besides on my lap while in a car. It took us a few days to figure out a name for him, but than I came upon it and thought of one, Bentley! I had thought of the name from the MTV show Teen Mom & how Maci had named her son Bentley. It worked for me because I had loved the name already so it all worked out and that was the final decision. His new name was Bentley & I knew that he had liked the name also.

Bentley has also been doing better with his potty training. Besides once in a while he has an accident, because he can't hold it in. He has had one hair cut that one of my neighbors did for us because we did not know how to cut the hair on a dog. Thought all threw out the whole time of cutting his hair he just freaked out and tried to bite his way out of getting a hair cut. He is hyper & very happy all the time. Bentley loves to eat all the time and play with his little doggy tennis balls. Will not sleep in his own bed, so Bentley insists on sleeping in my bed with me we are both lazy together Also going every where I go literally-- he will whine if I go somewhere and don't let him come with even if its a second, he will just lays down on the floor. As my mother says that I am his mommy master. Because he only listens & follows me. I absolutely adore Bentley, I do not need no man I got something better.He doesn't talk, He is just perfect to cuddle with, & only annoys me once in a while instead of twenty four seven.
