If they double-bagged everything, then they would be accused of harming the environment because they used too many bags.

No wonder why the world laugh at Americans because of these nonsense things.

They should appreciate getting free plastic bags in grocery stores because many European nations ban them, or you have to pay for every plastic bag.

Free plastic bags are nothing to be proud of. You have to pay for them here.
Hey! Yet another reason you'd hate it here.

I gotta say, Wal-Mart really dropped it with this one. You gotta admit that putting all that weight into one bag really sets them up to take the fall in this situation. A woman losing her life is certainly heavy but I don't think many people here really appreciate the gravity of the situation.

What I am saying is it isn't something to take lightly.

I see what ya done there....

You might have hit on something though, should we consider passing a law that would place limits on gravity? I mean I think we know gravity is really what's a blame here.

I know the Democrats would put their full weight behind it in congress.

Going forward, stop bagging and put the onus on the customer to bring their own bags.
