Just when I think I’ve seen everything, I come across this video of a mother dragging her small child on a leash through a Verizon store. The Huffington Post gives us the video.
The good news here is that the mother—if you can call her that—was arrested before she could pick out a new cell phone.
What a strange world we live in.

Disgusting. This woman should never get that child back.
Boy, when you said dragging, you really meant dragging. If it wasn’t a real child, it would be funny.
Horrible, just horrible treating this child like a dog or even worse.
Larry, I’m sick, I must be… every time I look at the video, I laugh. Maybe just crazy from the freaking rain? It is just a surreal thing to look at.
I’m sorry to all those who will be appalled. I never beat my children (in fact, was a little too lenient).
Is that woman pulling around Roger Ach?
Well, Marilyn, I’m sorry too. Yes I laughed the three times I saw it. No, it’s not funny, but, but. . .
Matt, thank god! I’ve been feeling guilty laughing over such a thing. I made my daughter look at it too, she actually snorted and laughed. We are sick out here in Hamersville, yup. It’s like watching Kramer do one of his slap stick moments, I guess…
Don’t feel bad for laughing. Laughter toward disgust is often the psychological response to deal with the disgust without being driven to painful thoughts
