I fully support the right of a private business to open for business any time they wish. I have no problem with retail stores opening on Thanksgiving, and will probably consider taking a shopping trip to Garden State Plaza.
You are a true free marketeer, Marc. We can never take that away from you.

I'm sure it won't be a problem, since on this sacred day, the deeply principled Paramussians, who need regular resting days, will be intensely engaged in cathartic rest, not venturing out at all, and completely at rest, inside their homes, not out, as they do every Sunday.
So there should be plenty of room on the roads for at least the two of us as the resting Paramussians remain in their homes, committed to a day of family, where they intently and unwaveringly gaze at each other in the family room, contemplating and celebrating their boundless familial love. While of course insisting that everyone else do the exact same thing because hey, dictating mandatory togetherness for all can't be bad.
Since these Blue Laws resemble their equivalent Sharia-ISIS analogues, I respectfully move that the Blue Laws be rechristened the Black Laws. This way they will blend in more harmoniously with the undoubtedly soon to be installed ISIS flags.
I'm going to be on the line sleeping overnight waiting to get in for a sale that you can get online or the next day for a cheaper amount. Makes sense to me. Like the jerks that wait on a line overnight and pay top dollar for the new IPhones when they come out.
I pretty much do my shopping on-line. When I do venture into to the real world of consumerism, I do it on a weekday, in the morning, early to mid December.
Then I finish it off at a bar for lunch and liquor.
Private business does have every right to operate on a holiday. Nevertheless, I still believe it's both vulgar and crass with respect to reducing the Thanksgiving Holiday into just another retail event. However, it's up to people at the end of the day to decide how they are going to spend their Thanksgiving Holiday.

Agree... but what can you do? If you're a retail store, you have to give consumers what they want, or they'll conduct their business elsewhere. Now if only consumers stayed home on Thanksgiving, the stores wouldn't be forced to open.
