Today, at the Black Friday Sale, a fully grown man hit my 5 year old daughter for an Xbox. In anger, I punched the guy and gave him a bloody nose. I'm now banned from Best Buy, and my daughter has a concussion. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, while shopping, my six-year-old son threw a tantrum because I wouldn't buy him a video game. I ended up having to grab his arm and leave the store. He screamed that I was kidnapping him, at which point I was socked in the face and pinned to the floor by three bystanders. FML
Today, I smacked my kid on top of the head for spinning the display rack while I was looking at greeting cards. It wasn't until he dramatically screamed and dropped to the floor wailing that I realized he wasn't my daughter. FML
Today, my 6 year-old daughter got mad at me for not buying her yet another expensive doll. I had to pull her away, and she started screaming for help. The next thing I know, another shopper puts me in a chokehold and calls for security, all while my daughter smirks. FML
Today, I punched an older woman in the face. I only hit her after she grabbed my 4-year-old daughter and told her to, "stop dancing like a whore!" My daughter was so terrified, she peed her pants. FML
Today, it's Black Friday. I got sucker-punched by some woman over a ten dollar griddle. FML
Today, I went shopping with my two sons and my wife. We got separated after a while, and I spotted my son in the video game section of the store. I snuck up behind him and playfully slapped him on the back of the head. The kid turned around and it wasn't my son. His mom was none to happy. FML
Today, in a sporting goods store, my mom was over on the other side of the store, when a cute guy came over to talk to me. When she saw this she grabbed a bat, walked over to us and said, "If you ever even look at my daughter again, I will beat you shitless." She was serious. He ran. FML
Today, I paid my daughter a surprise visit, only to see her husband beating her. I charged in and slammed him into the wall. She screamed at me to stop. They'd recently gotten into martial arts and were sparring, and now he's got a broken arm. FML
Today, working my job, I had to explain to a kid that Pokemon is owned by Nintendo and they don't make it for the Xbox. Upset by this, he took hold of my leg and started biting. I'm also suspended, because his mother complained when I kicked him off me. FML
Today, my daughter had to deal with a Karen at her job, lost her temper, and punched her unconscious just to shut her up. Sounds like a good thing, right? Wrong, she pressed charges, got my daughter arrested, and she’s now facing years in prison for grievous bodily harm. FML

They are all disgusting savages. I'm so sorry for you and your daughter, OP.

I guess this is why where I live everyone has to stand in line and get a ticket for the item they want, instead of it being a free for all. And staples is better than Best Buy anyway, don't worry about being banned. You did the right thing.

If you can afford to go shopping on Black Friday you can afford a babysitter. When every year we hear reports of violence during Black Friday, why someone would take a small child is beyond me. Were the deals worth it?

Maybe he took his daughter because he was doing some of the shopping for her? Why is everyone bashing OP for having his daughter there? Bah. You should NOT have to live in a world where you can't safely take your kid to the store during some sale. And if there IS violence around, how the hell is it OP's fault? You should be able to trust people to behave like people, and if they don't then THEY are in the wrong. No ifs, ands, or buts. God. This is the other guy's fault, not OP's.

Uncalled for joke: "He hit your daughter for an Xbox? What would he do for a Klondike Bar?" Stop harassing the OP about bringing his daughter when you don't know the context. He might be buying something for his daughter that she wanted to pick out, so he brought her. It really doesn't matter. The point is that a jerk slapped OP's daughter, and he responded in kind. I have a saying: 'Violence is the answer only when violence is the problem.' OP didn't do a thing to deserve it. He took his child to a Best Buy and his daughter was assaulted. The daughter didn't deserve it either. OP recognized a threat (this "threat" just GAVE HIS DAUGHTER A CONCUSSION) and reacted. He deserves more than a bloody nose. One thing does confuse me. Shouldn't there be at least a dozen witnesses who can vouch for the OP?
