Wal-Mart removes guns from stores
Many of you will remember what we did to K-Mart when they removed guns. The resulting boycott caused them to go into bankrupty and the media to wonder what was going on.
Now Wal-Mart will be removing guns from the larger stores where the anti gun liberals live in an atempt to bring in ‘More business”
Wal-Mart Stores Inc., which is also the country’s largest seller of rifles and shotguns, said Friday it will eliminate firearms from about one-third of its 3,200 stores across the country. The retail space freed by eliminating gun sales will be devoted to other goods and services more desired by the public.
Meanwhile, advocates on both sides of the gun debate staked out territory. Gun control advocates appeared pleased by the decision, while the National Rifle Association raised concerns that some rural residents may have trouble finding somewhere else to buy guns.
“We’ve been told by Wal-Mart that the decision would be made on a store-by-store basis based on demand,” NRA chief lobbyist Chris Cox told the Associated Press. “The NRA and our members will be watching closely to make sure they stay true to their word.”
In 2004 Wal-Mart told Sens. Charles Schumer and Dianne Feinstein that the company would not sell assault weapons.
DO Not shop in Wal-Mart stores that do not carry guns and tell them why you are walking out.

How am I going to ensure all them kids stay off my lawn if I can’t get a gun at my local? I need to buy a new gun every 6 months, and, being wheel-chair bound, WalMart is my only option.
