Such stupidity over a toy.
Elgin, the shooting was not over a PS3. Two people did an old fashioned holdup of the people waiting in line for a PS3. Assuming one or two people there planned to pay cash, that is a lot of cash.

Even though it is "just a toy," it has a street value of over $1000, some are reporting selling it for $3000. You could buy a used car for that, or pay the rent on my whole apartment for 5 months.

Our society celebrates money and materialism. Chasing that brings out the worst in some people.
