Walmart Pulls Guns, Ammunition From Store Displays Over Fear They Will Be Looted By BLM Rioters

National File:

Multinational retail chain Walmart will be removing sale floors displays of firearms and ammunition from its U.S. locations in what the company describes as a preventative measure to keep weapons from falling into the hands of left-wing and Black Lives Matter-related looters.

The mass looting that is an integral part of every 2020 Black Lives Matter riot has routinely resulted in the sales floor cleanout of major retail chains such as Target, Walmart, and Kroger. read more

  1. The violent Left is now in control of what we do and how we live, this is just another example of it.

    At least for the majority of the population that lives in cities instead of in rural areas.

    Have you seen the black friday mob videos? If a swarm like that was headed toward the front entrance I’m pretty sure the guard would be the first one out the back door.
    If the firearms and ammo are still available for sale and as long as there are salespeople available to administer the purchase I think this is a prudent measure. Just make sure the inventory available for purchase is clearly pictorally displayed.

  3. I doubt Walmart can take a chance on the liabilities of having after hours armed guards in a store during a riot situation.

    Even the police have a problem with this, so even using the police as guards could be considered probably would be in court- considered as an inflammatory action.

    It would be far less costly to lose a few stores than to try covering the liability costs of judgments against them.

  4. The armed guards need to be on the roof not at the front doors. Safety first you know.
    You know what stops looters? Shooting them, game over.
    I know the left doesn’t think this is playing fair, but I don’t care, they started this war.
    They’re needs to be an immunity law for shooting looters.

    M18A1 Claymores would make more sense. More cost effective and no one to blame but your own well ventilated self if you trip one.

  6. Are they ever going to restock? We saw yesterday the shelves were empty and they had stock last Sunday. Sure it makes sense in cities and areas you suspect will be targeted but even in small towns? One has to wonder if they used this crisis to finally rid themselves of shotguns and ammo. It isn’t like they removed other so called dangerous items. They still have gas cans, knives and other items that could be valuable in a riot on the shelves.

  7. Wrong solution on several levels.

    First the fact W/M allows their stores to be looted at all is the root of this problem. If armed security was behind a locked up store, there’s not going to be any looting. You might lose some front entry glass and get tagged but that’s about it.

    Once the savages know there’s no stopping them, Wdafuq do you expect?

    Unless Wally Worlds in Riot areas does still have Ammo?
    Ours down here in GA/SC have been sold out of just about everything
    except 12 GA. Bird shot and very ODD caliber rifle for 45+ days.

    Unless you need rounds like: Elephant / Water Buffalo scale rounds.

    I agree with your point, however, we can’t even get Law Enforcement to defend themselves let alone do their jobs.. This catering to the mob is nucking futs. I think private security firing on the mob would come with great liability.

    Yea, I followed that shooting carefully. The shooter was trained. The G19’s got a threaded barrel. It was another Antifa hit team. Just like Seattle.
    Our neighbors were telling us last night they lost a lot of friends from the Bay Area when they announced they were voting Trump in 2016. She has not heard from any of those people since. Until last week when one of them e mailed her “You better hope fucking Trump doesn’t win”. Apparently everyone wants the coming fight.
