Truth Revolt:
CBS News deceived readers on Thursday by reporting that the nation’s largest grocery store chain has stopped selling guns and ammunition to those 21 and under. Kroger did make that announcement, following Dick’s Sporting Goods’ and Walmart’s lead, however, a tiny fact that makes a world of difference in the reporting was left out.
Kroger owns Fred Meyer, which is a one-stop-shopping center like Walmart, and sells sporting goods, grocery items, produce, and other goods. There are only 43 Fred Meyer locations in Alaska, Oregon, Washington, and Idaho. But the way CBS News made it out, you can pick up your favorite sidearm next to the lettuce at your friendly neighborhood Kroger: MORE

If only!
I believe Kroger was already in the process of eliminating the non-grocery part of Fred Meyer, but this might speed things along, unfortunately. Fred Meyer pioneered the “super Store” concept 100 years ago, and now, thanks to the Kroger buy-out, they are surrendering the sector to Walmart, and will soon disappear.
BTW, when Kroger bought-out Fred Meyer, I always thought they should have renamed it “Freddy-Kroger”.
We have them up here only they go by Fred Meyer…must witness protection or some shit. Anyway the libstains always have their panties in a bunch because the GUN SALES are right across the aisle from the TOY DEPT!
Why does the media, you know the people that are suppose to report facts, always lie?
I know along with everyone else knows the answer…..liberalism.
Maybe that was the plan. Introducing guns to all Kroger stores. Under cover of “but you must be 21”. It’d be brilliant! Just think of the “Glocks & beer” specials.
If I could buy guns & ammo at Kroger, I’d drive to Ohio to get my groceries! I ain’t never seen a gun or an ammo in Kroger, in FORTY YEARS of shopping at one!
Damn, I always buy my nuclear tipped assault chainsaw bayonet attachments for my full semi auto assault machine clip at Kroger, now what am I to do?
Anyone who lets CBS news determine their opinions
deserves exactly what CBS news wishes to accomplish
THEY WANT TO RULE HOW YOU THINK
This is the only objective of the MSM
They will tell you only what you’re allowed to know
and only how you can think about it
Communism is already here
It’s called the MSM
It’s called the democrat party.
It goes by the name Fred Meyer in Washington. Their meat SUCKS but lettuce buy Glocks and we’ll rise to your dressing.
Just so everyone is clear about Dick Heads. They stopped selling Tactical Weapons after Sandy Hook. I’m not sure what they think they’re trying to prove.
I’ve looked for years, literally for a semi auto avocado…..
Imagine if you had an arugula magazine that you could put into your salad shooter….
Priceless

Brad, yep I haven’t stepped into a Dicks since that day. I wondered why the hell they were saying that now.
As for WalMart I don’t think they sold AR-15s anyway, I’ve never saw one in any stores, but they’re going to get on their soap box and not sell toy guns either.
Why do these companies feel they need to make any announcement? Just stop stocking it if thats how you feel.
@ willysgoatgruff,
I don’t know about you, but in recent years cheese makes me go FULL-auto!
