Walmart to stop selling handgun ammunition, will ask customers not to open carry

A friend of mine went to Wal-Mart in Statesville to buy a flashlight last week and he said the left side of the ammo case where they keep handgun stuff was on the way to being empty.

Some dude in his 60's had an arm full of boxes of 223/5.56 and was like "Didja hear they banning AR bullets? Imma buying as many as I can before thur gone for good".

Probably one of those dudes who waited out back looking for shipments of 22 to hit the store.

Guess he has never heard of SGammo where he ain't gonna pay .38 per round plus tax for AE223
 
The media and anti gun nuts try to paint every gun owner as crazed gun toting idiots that can't wait to pull the trigger everyday. Mom walks into food lion with her two young kids and here comes some guy with a gun tucked in his waistband. She remembers all that crap on tv. What she going to think?

Yep, Lets also include violent video games ( both sides pleading the 5th on this ) in which a LOT of parents use game systems as an "Electronic Babysitter" coupled with crap on tv ~ cable , etc.

Now lets consider the Lack of History ~ Civics being taught which further trashes a ZERO or Reference Point as to how - why America is America and how this nation came to exist.

With no or very little (of even Basic) History an average person would very easily think a person with a firearm is to be distrusted ~ feared because of the years of mental conditioning video games, tv shows / movies and what news(?) is being reported ( or NOT) .

With college students and other people in our society willfully promoting and demanding that statues be removed / destroyed because it hurts their feelings(?) truly do not understand what Freedoms they currently enjoy and are Blindly destroying their own future Freedoms to some Leftest Mantra wanting everyone to feel good.


Some will state that these college educated students / graduates know their history and I submit that probably a small few do , but the vast majority do not fully understand or appreciate even the basic history of how America came to be.
This is to include why the Pilgrims left Europe.
They did so for two reasons, Freedom of Religion and escape an oppressive government.
Sound familiar?
Thus they have NO Zero Point and do not ( and can not ) fully understand why we have the 2A, let alone the BORs as a whole, period.
This is especially holds true when Leftest teachers ( yes I mean k ~ 12 & college ) and the media, GNN (or the "Goebbels News Network") spin, misreport, don't report accurately. ( in case anyone wonders, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Goebbels ).

The media is also promoting the 2A is outdated and implying it is for hunting.
LoL, the only hunting ( if you will ) it is meant for (at the time it was drafted and approved) were "Red Coats" , simple as that.
Sound Harsh?
That's part of our history, Factual.
Ironically when "The Left " states something like >"We don't need weapons of war on our streets"< I will fully agree.

So if that's their position don't do something like a forced firearm confiscation and I will add that all of the Dem's wanting to be POTUS should fully understand our U.S. Constitution and IF(?) any of them truly do they know Damn Well what they are claiming they ( any of them ) are going to do is illegal, simple as that, period! Thus they will continue to portray gun owners as evil, period.

The left is pissed because Hillary was not installed in the Oval Office and it is delaying their agenda for at least 4 more years.
The Power Brokers know full well that Lots of Older Americans are armed ( 2A) and is a major inconvenience and deterrent to their plans, period.
The Left is and has been destroying all parts of the 1st Amendment as well.

Younger Americans ( vast majority ) don't know or care about our history because they have what they want and are happy so when more >Feel Good< talk is is distributed by the Left they will generally follow and I will add, because they truly don't know any better!

In the future they will care when what ever they enjoyed is made unavailable, banned, or just taken away from them.
So, now where's their Freedom?
Sorta in the toilet?

So maybe you can understand why older people , hum,, vent?
Maybe not.

SO what to do to change mindsets?
Good question because there is a foundation the last two generations seem to be missing to have the ability to think about everything in Context, period.

I don't know your true intentions here on CFF.
Are you here out of concern for America's future?
Are you here to stir the pot and instigate unrest?

1) We have a people problem, not a gun, knife, truck problem.

2) If you are asking what to do, I believe we need to go back to basics and help teach others about the 2A.
I think everyone gets Tone Deaf with the phase "Right To Bear Arms" primarily because they really have no basic understanding to Zero Point that concept.

If you want to contribute, I have included basic material below and Please share with anyone that wants to learn. This way whether they agree or not they will have the reasoning behind the 2A.

I have also included links for 5 short vids on youtube and to link to them just add WWW, this way this post is not full for videos.

I will write a letter later to Walmart stating these facts.

Why ban a product that was not purchased from your store? Why discontinue a product line that is not bought those protesting it, but enjoyed by many other customers that use it. Seems you do not value those customers. You seem to value political correctness. Why don't you stop selling alcohol, cell phones, vehicle parts as automobile accidents cause by drunk drivers, distracted drivers abuse those items. I have bought guns and ammo from your stores for decades along with other items. You have now lost a customer. My money will now go back to local stores.

I've talk with middle manager types from a few locations and info I get is:

I needed Coke for a drink mix so I figured WTH, let’s see what’s left.

I did that last night in Denver.

Business was boomin! Half a dozen older guys.

Shelves nearly empty and a clerk laying on the floor so he could reach the back of the shelves.

That store always sucked anyway. The department manager has a lot to do with what is stocked. I may check out Huntersville today just for kicks. That store always had good inventory when possible. The manager there, although a bit of a Fudd, would watch the inventory in the warehouses and order as soon a some came available.
 
Dad told me yesterday that there were no guns in the display case at the Walmart here. It used to be full with one of just about everything. From a .22 cricket up to big ol' bolt actions and shotguns.
 
This guy got banned from all Walmarts for OC:


Yup,

Few days ago I publicly ( here and around town ) expressed concerns about Wally World going Political with this issue.
I fully understand current events and I also cringe when companies start , not just acknowledging , getting fully on board and contributing / leading politically with Hard Left Political agendas.
Companies did the same during the rise and tenir of the 3rd Reich.

WM Political position has placed them in a very favorable business & political stance / position when "The Dark Side " acquires The Oval office.


Also, wait until neighbors go shopping , yes there's still others around and with all that's going on doesn't mean they're gone.

I really must not have made my point. I am not saying the Constitution, 2nd amendment does not give us the Right. There is no denying that. Im just saying I think we are going to far. We are beginning to look like a bunch of war mongering, irresponsible, gun toting idiots to a lot of people that would otherwise normally be on our side. We are losing it. We need those people.

It ain't my job to win over a single damn soul to appreciate my lifestyle, but is absolutely essential that those that don't like it mind their own effing business. "A well regulated militia, supposing it doesn't scare or offend the delicate pantywastes of this country..." ain't what the document says.
 
So far I have stayed out of the store that is less than 1 mile from my front door. My wife is supporting the decision. When I needed some hunting supplies I went to our local farm supply and they had exactly what I needed.
I plan on ordered bulk supplies for her business instead of the little onesie-twosie business we were giving them. We buy groceries at other stores that don't feel the need to alienate or persecute a subsection of their customer base. No more automotive supplies either. Better yet, I am gonna do my best to convince my kids who are coming into their own jobs and money that Walmart can go eff themselves sideway.

the more I think on this, I am thinking that this is nothing more than Walmart trying to protect a greater market share.

Trump wanted a cut, major cut, in the SNAP/EBT program. Walmart currently holds damn near a 20% stake in those sales. $18 billion federal dollars spent annually last year at Walmart in SNAP alone ( guesstimate). Cutting out the firearm/ammo sales of which is probably less than 1% of gross store sales, and sinking, siding with the politicians that will decide on the cuts. Also pandering to the same politicians that want gun control. Walmart sees it as a win win, zero loss to them. Sell off all current stock, no reordering, WIN. No more open carry allowed, politicans happy, WIN. SNAP/EBT stays the same, WIN
 
This is a win, now I never have to go to a Wal-Wart again. I used to go couple of times a year to pickup some Winchester white box ammo.

When I miss seeing the freaks the frequent Wal-Wart, I'll just watch some youtube videos....
 
Warren has Hillary as her VP mate.
Very possible

If Warren wins, she’ll resign after a few months from a made up scandal and Hillary will assume the Overlord position.
IDK, there Both Power Hungry and neither one could successfully manage a drive thru burger joint.

It may be more plausible they both tag team for who's in charge with the likely hood that both go to Daddy to ask who's to do what, etc.





Edit , add to: Another angle to the possibles, if Killary were to even get the VP slot it puts her back in the White House and it won't be long after that "The Clinton Foundation" gets revived with Fresh CASH from world wide sources. Basically puts the Clintons back in Business.

Yah,
They caved / sold out to the Left.

.

Yup. They are so deep in China that the tarrifs, trades fights are hurting their bottom lines. Throw in the SNAP/ebt cuts, now they really are gonna feel it.

Of course they are siding with the left. The left will protect Wallys intrest in order to keep the lobby dollars flowing and their wally world shares up in the stock market.

Perfect conclusion - Walmart knows who keeps them in business in the long run and it is the democrats.
They could care less that WMT stock when up 80% since Trump took office.
 
So they're gonna stop selling 5.56 and 9mm. Yep that will convince those sorry mass murders to switch to buckshot and slugs!

They may need to quit selling .308 too, just in case the next guy uses a real battle rifle :D
I was going to suggest a real battle rifal for the new t-shirt design, but I didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings, lol.



And yes, that's not a typo!

So, they are fine with people with guns as long as you can't see them? Is a gun less dangerous when concealed? I guess the bad guys will just conceal from now on when they want to commit crimes in these places?
 
I want to see people in a baby blue T-shirt with a yellow F surrounded by six yellow exclamation points (like the WM logo), a pistol on one hip, and dual mags on the other.
Then it would be fun to go into WallyWorld. :D
@DesignMine you might be able to sell a few of those.

Yes, but the customers will "feel safer"
 
Some people in smaller towns have to shop at walmart. If so, at least stay out of the sports department. No hunting, fishing, camping, ball equipment, bikes, kayaks. Anything considered in any way as sports. If everybody would do that it would send a clear message to walmart and all the others. I think concentrating on one at a time untill they get the message would be doable for all.

Noted,
My take on it is, Amazon is Kicking Wally's A$$ across the board and Wally made a deal with the Devil ( gov't ) that may or may not bear fruit for Walmart.
