Walmart removes guns and ammo

#1

Post by rtschl »

Walmart Inc. has temporarily pulled ammunition and guns off its shelves ahead of any possible looting or civil unrest that could take place following next week’s election.

From the article, looks like they are more worried about looting.

Wal-Mart (and other "woke" retailers) should be concerned about possible unrest by the socialists after the election:

Trump wins: they're mad and go collectively berserk.
Biden wins: they're 'empowered' and go collectively berserk.

It's already happened. I was watching a live report the other day and saw this.

The ammo was already looted from this Port Richmond, Philadelphia walmart and who knows how many others in the area.

I long for the good old days when looters would be shot on sight.

And now Walmart has reversed the decision:

"As the current incidents have remained geographically isolated, we have made the decision to begin returning these products to the sales floor today."

Yes, looters and rioters should be shot on sight (site).
It's fine if you disagree. I can't force you to be correct.
