Rifles should not be sold at Walmart

Where I live, disgusting beer is just as accessible as Diet Dew. I would be in favor of restoring, and enacting the prohibition of alcohol. Alcohol is putrid , causes liver cancer, let alone expands the waistline. Better to send Coors Light and Budweiser both out of business, and turn all the liquor stores into marijuana dispensaries, which the tax on marijuana can go toward improving infrastructure (I know, I'm going way off topic here, but alcohol is a unnecessary evil, just like the Controlled Substances Act). Let's see Walmart, or Costco sell marijuana seeds and vaporizers, and supplies to roll joints, and see how that goes.

 

Balto, I still haven't heard a reason other than 'Walmartians' that Walmart shouldn't sell guns. Stop the crap about pot, and answer the question, which I've been asking since the beginning.

 

Walmart is the biggest gun dealer in America not counting Barack Obama.

Like how Home Depot was responsible of putting most hardware stores out of business. Walmart destroyed "Main Street USA" by forcing hundreds of thousands of small businesses out of business including your neighborhood gun shops.

You go inside a Walmart today the only thing you'll find made in the USA are in the guns department.

Walmart started out as being selling guns and fishing rods and reels. If you remember back during the 1980's that's what they advertised.

Do you demand that your local Ford dealership stop selling cars because 30,000 people are killed in traffic deaths and then run for your safety zone ?

A little advice for all liberal snowflakes. If you stop whining and stop being offended when you hear someone use a politically incorrect word, stop seeking refuge in your PC "safety zone" when you experience living in the real world and try stop being naughty but start being nice, Santa Clause might be good to you next Christmas and you might wake up on Christmas morning and find that Santa left you a scary looking AR-15 under the Christmas tree and a stocking full of 30 round magazines.

 

I do not know where you live but it sounds awful. We have good beer where I live.

I am sure if marijuana becomes legal Wal Mart will get in on it.

 

It must depend on where your store is located. My experience here in a small town in Oregon, is the opposite, although now that I think about it the handguns share a case with knives.

This reminds me of that kid in the Twilight Zone episode that sends things he doesn't like to the "corn field".

Let me guess, you smoke weed but don't like to drink.

 

Come to Vermont if you want to get really a skeered. As left as we are our state Constitution allows, open carry, concealed carry; hell even kids as young as 12 can bare shotguns.

One of the most asked question in the military.

From what I remembered growing up during the Cold War in the 50's and 60's, during drop and cover drills, Susie wore white panties. Maggie might have been susie's older sister.

 

I can buy my fishing/hunting license at Walmart as well as rods, bait, camping supplies, ammo, knives, and yes rifles. Just because you're what my generation calls a 'Nancy', doesn't mean it shouldn't be sold there. Go shop at Target or Kmart, they don't sell firearms or sporting goods.

 

So by your logic then since cars kill a lot more people than firearms...Remember that almost all countries have cars and have car accidents, not all countries allow firearms. Then the basic car should cost something like $50K and a gallon of gas should be at least $50. That would cut down on all the accidents as well as reduce pollution...Everyone should have to ride bicycles, which would also cut down on obesity...LMAOAYS. Move to somewhere where freedom is curtailed like Europe.

 

You do realize its the same thing if not even more lax at gun shops right? At Walmart you have to break the glass and I'm sure that'll draw attention. At gun stores in a lot of cases the guns are just hanging out for anyone to grab.

 

And he can't do this at a gun store because?

 

I always thought snowflake was saying that they think they are special and need special treatment.

 

That's just the half of it, the other half is snowflakes are easily offended by politically incorrect words, being criticised, scary looking guns, real work, and the real world in general.

 

Compare alcohol related fatalities in the US to gun related US fatalities annually.
Tell me your thoughts.

 

A lack of record and book stores/purchases by no means indicates a lack of information or music. Our means of accessing and enjoying them have dramatically changed.

 

Walmart's pitch and selling point is one stop shopping. If you need a can of spray paint, a few groceries, a pair of shoes, a birthday gift, school supplies, a picture frame, a frying pan, a pair of earrings, a light fixture, oil for the car, laundry detergent, a money order, and a rug...Walmart has it all. For busy families without the time to go to 8 stores all over the place, Walmart is convenient and reasonable.
Americans are frequently short of extra time.
The American Middle-class is constantly being used but never defined. The US middle-class encompasses most of the country.
A middle-class family of four can have an annual household income of $40k or $400k.

 

You're distorting the truth. Wal-Mart hasn't sold actual handguns since 1993--corporate policy. Now, you may be talking bb pistols, but not firearms.

 

Balto, I still haven't heard a reason other than 'Walmartians' that Walmart shouldn't sell hunting rifles and shotguns (they haven't sold handguns since 1993, and haven't sold "assault type" rifles since 2015).

 

While its good that "assault type" rifles have been off Walmart's shelves since last year, rifles should be left to be sold in specialty stores, where people who come into gun shops are patted down, and primarily have to go through a security screening upon entering the store. Rifles should not be circulated like a spray can of paint, or a set of birthday candles, and again, be set at a premium price where really only those part of the elite monetarily, can afford them. Rifles are not a commonplace item, more of a reserved item. That's why Walmart shouldn't be selling them.

 

Rifles should not be sold at Walmart

Oh really? What else shouldn't Walmart sell?

How about not selling spandex clothing to fat people?

 

Some people can't help being fat, but society and fast food companies are partially guilty of making people fat.

I'd say do away with alcohol transactions, if we are to take your first question seriously.

 

I recently took a trip to North Carolina and I saw people in Wal-Mart openly carrying side arms while shopping. I can only assume that you would have gone ballistic had you been in one of those Wally World stores. Not only do they sell "Guns" they allow shoppers to openly carry "Guns" in the store. Seems it's common place in North Carolina and in states that issue carry permits. Welcome to the real America.

 

I guess what the OP means is Walmart should only sell what doesn't offend libs.

 

I'm for selling sensible items, to take the saying out of Walmart's book, for people to "live better." Rifles wont do that, but neither will a Hershey bar. Go figure.
