Poor kids. Sadly, we've turned into a Jerry Springer society, so that's not hard to believe.

What IS hard to believe is that no one took and posted video of the event. Yes, video--not still shots, or news readers flapping their gums, or some guy sitting in his car talking about it so that he can be the next internet sensation--but YouTube video (unedited). Very strange.

Vote for Bernie and he'll guarantee every participant 5 free Govt issued Chocolate Eggs.

You just cannot call them Easter, must go by the new name Holiday Eggs.

I am not really shocked is that bad? Do hope the kids hurt are okay. Feel bad for the kids though.

It's like The People of Walmart (a site for great laughs) hall of fame had an easter Pez factory get together. Sweatpants are for "dress up" day

I agree, again, with kidyankee (oddly happening a lot these days). This is the manifestation of a completely selfish society. Happens on Black Friday, new Iphone release day, new XBOX release day etc etc. We are breeding a sense of entitlement, there's already a sense of immediate gratification and, as the nuclear family gets smaller and smaller we have less people growing up with a sense of sharing and conflict management. Question is, is this the new norm or just a generational idiosyncrasy like anything else?...

The media perpetuation of this type of behavior is something new...

The Kardashians, Honey Boo Boo and other trash tv models this type of behavior...

Who in their right mind needs to drive 2.5 hours to go Easter egg hunting, in Orange of all places. People are nuts. I also don't see what religion has to do with anything.
Not only did they drive 2.5 hours, but did so for the 9-12 year old section.
Who the hell still brings 9-12 yo's to these things?
