This is based on the logic that "when you live on government handout or exploit misfortunes of poor and ignorant it is called smart handwork or business savvy".

Very inconclusive story without video to prove he was ignored. He got good help from medical folks who were shopping in the store...

UPDATE: Nurse Says She Tried to Help Shopper Who Collapsed on Black Friday

Kimberly Rowland is a nurse and was shopping with her sister when she saw Vance and tried to help revive him. Rowland says Target employees blocked off an aisle and called 911 while another held Vance's head.

The 61-year-old was rushed to the hospital, but later died.

Rowland says there were many people nearby, but no one she saw was ignoring Vance.

"I didn't see anyone walking by him, anyone that was heartless," Rowland said. "Maybe that happened right before I got to him, but when I got to him he was getting help. We were doing everything we could for him, ya know I would hate for that to be the last image or the last thoughts they had of him that no one would help."

Tab, were you the one doing chest compressions when I came up to help? I'm the RN who was on the other side of him. The man beside me told me he was a respiratory therapist. I just don't understand how people who weren't there can criticize what was done. We did all we could and in my opinion, he was quite lucky to have a paramedic, nurse, and respiratory therapist there by his side to help. It's unfortunate that he did not survive, but we did do everything we could without an AED. I wish Target would release the surveillance video if there is one showing what happened.
