I was surfing the net the other day on our wireless internet service Austin when I came across a story about a Walmart where more than a dozen needles and syringes have been found by innocent shoppers in various products throughout the store. There have been reports of young children being stuck by needles planted in children’s pajamas and clothes, and adults pierced by syringes in pockets, gloves, and socks. As I was reading this story, I was literally sickened by the thought that anyone could be that malicious. Who would do such a thing, and what horrible motive could a person have for such a deed? I wonder if it could be an overworked, disgruntled employee or even a former employee trying to cause ruination for his or her employer. Or is it someone who is facing such a trying time that the only sick relief could be to drag others into this living hell? Regardless, the responsible party needs to be found, and this horrible story needs to end. Not only is it fearful for shoppers, but I can only imagine the anxiety and fear that those who have been stuck by these needles must be facing.
