Sucker Stamp: 58-year-old Disgruntled Wal-Mart Employee Burns Self To Death in Parking Lot

Sucker Stamp

A 58-year-old Wal-Mart employee who said he “couldn’t take it anymore” lit himself on fire outside the Bloomingdale store where he worked late Thursday night and was later pronounced dead at a hospital, authorities said this morning.
In an interview, his son said his father went to work last night with nothing seeming out of the ordinary. “This had nothing to do with the economy. I want to make that clear,” he said, adding that the family may never know the reason for the public suicide.
When one of the first officers tried to speak to the man, who by that time was severely burned, he responded, “I just couldn’t take it anymore,” a man said, citing the officer’s report.
The man “enjoyed his job and living in the ‘burbs,” his son said. “We were getting ready to redo the front lawn.” He added that his father had no health problems.
“You try not to ask yourself the question [why he did it] because there’s no answer,” the son said.

Note to self-immolating Wal-Mart protester: America is a Judeo-Christian country, not a Buddhist country. Your bosses will get scared when you set THEIR bodies on fire, not your own!

PS: Notice how the no-good-son tarnishes his father’s legacy by going out of his way to emphasize it had nothing to do with Wal-Mart: “You try not to ask yourself the question [why he did it] because there’s no answer.” Thus clearly showing the sucker stamp disorder to have a strong hereditory component.

It sounds like the son feels kind of ashamed of his father for doing such a thingy and he is extremely self-conscious for people not associate himself with those kind of guys who burn themselves and happen to be his relatives at the same instance.

the son is indeed a degenerate sellout – he’s waiting for a nice pity check from Walmart

Apparently the prospect of working on the yard is not quite enough to prevent suicide.

DOLAN, where are you?
Faggot ass son. Speaking for the inflamed father. L O L. What a retarded bastard son.

this is bizarre. The guy was free to just say “I quit”, and then move from his suburban house into his car if necessary. Or put his wife to work. Plenty of options besides becoming an attention whore.

This says it all:
“Note to self-immolating Wal-Mart protester: America is a Judeo-Christian country, not a Buddhist country. Your bosses will get scared when you set THEIR bodies on fire, not your own!”
Not encouraging anyone to commit a crime, but if you are going to set yourself on fire, might as well take someone with you.

He should have torched himself *inside* Wallmart …

Betcha, in keeping with WalMart’s track record, the guy had a “dead peasant” life insurance policy. Meaning WalMart will get a check for $70,000 because of his death.

Aren’t policies usually void in case of suicide?

Why onb earth would you set yourself on fire *outside* a Wallmart? You only get one shot at burning the place down that way, do it inside.

Jeepers, that’s a nasty way to die.
Why not strap on a suicide vest (emblazoned with happy faces, of course), pop by the store manager’s office, and take an escort to Valhalla with you?

Meh… Where’s a video on youtube?? I can’t believe nobody filmed it, this is a perfect youtube material.

Did this guy purchase one of those value 5-packs of multi-colored lighters they sell at Wallmart checkout lines? If so, I wonder how many of them didn’t work before one finally sparked his body into flames. “Goddamnit! Stupid cheap lighters! I’m trying to set myself alight here! Fucking Wallmart!”

This picture is actually from a Budist monk who lit himself on fire to protest against the oppresive regiment against the tibet in the eraly 1960’s I dont know why they used this picture fo this lie.

Ive been told he was a Buddhist and that Buddhists can meditate so well they can push away so he sat there and lit his self on fire to stand out and then he meditated to get the pain away

During the Vietnam War, A lot of Monks were unsettle about the war and they set themselves on fire as an act of meaningless to show what the value of the War really was after a period of time..Meaningless. Have some respect. Fuckers.

This is ridiculous this picture was taken during the Vietnam War, when the monks of the area protested against the violence and war. Unbelievable how ignorant I am that I don’t get the joke.
