Black Friday has just begun and there's already been multiple fights all across the country between shoppers trying to grab discounted products. And clearly they will do whatever it takes to get them.
One video quickly going viral features Black Friday shoppers making a mad dash for some vegetable steamers at Walmart. The video centers on one parent and child who grab steamers when suddenly another woman snatches the child's steamer. The parent then attempts to put the snatcher in a headlock:

Another video from a Walmart in El Paso, Texas shows people fighting over a large TV. Two women are fighting for one TV at first and then a man jumps in and grabs the TV before a security guard steps in to break up the situation.
Another fight broke out in Florence, Ky. over a pair of Air Jordans, according to New York Daily News:

Black Friday 2015 is already off to a disappointingly contentious start, though some do find amusement in the irony of people fighting over holiday presents versus the actual purpose of the holidays. Many have taken to Twitter to comment on the various Black Friday fights.
The videos of fights today on #BlackFriday aren't even funny... Stealing & beating people over material things. That's our sad society today — Razak Kadiri (@Killaray1989) November 27, 2015

Today people will get in fist fights over discounted TVs and PS4s but refuse to pay 5p for a bag for their bread and milk #BlackFriday — Bradley Rees (@BradleyyRees) November 27, 2015
Anyone who fights someone else for a tv in a supermarket today or any other day should be ejected off the planet into space. #BlackFriday
