Rejected petition Shops should no longer Promote 'Black Friday'

More details

The American "tradition" that forces shoppers to take extreme steps (including physical assult) just to get bargin prices is detrimental to moral order.

The government or at least local councils should encourage shops and big supermarket chains to not create this frenzy that puts material goods above peoples' safety.
