Walmart and Guns
Vanity ^ | 09/05/2019 | Chicagoconservative27

Posted on 09/05/2019 12:59:19 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Yesterday i was on facebook and noticed people saying, oh, Walmart is not selling ammo anymore! Its a start!

A start to what? People going to local stores and buying ammo somewhere else? These idiots think just because Walmart is not selling ammo that law abiding citizens and criminals will not get ammo elsewhere?

I so so sick of this subject its unreal.

“I wouldn’t even think of buying ammo at Walmart. We go to Cabelas or buy it at the range.”

Some think of price.

I was in Walmart yesterday, and I went to the ammo counter to see what was left. There was a sign taped to the counter that said "WE WILL NOT BE DISCOUNTING AMMUNITION."

So if it doesn't sell out, they may have handgun ammunition on their shelves for weeks.

It’s a start in making sure you can’t buy anywhere else either.

The Left is engaging in harassment and intimidation because they do not presently have the political power to pass the severe gun control laws they are determined on.

There were approximately 30,000 deaths last year as a result of guns. There were 750,000 deaths as a result of abortion. When WalMart does something about that get back to me.

You may be sick of it but you are still participating in it.

The world changes, people change and if there is a need for
a product it will be available.

Eventually guns will be the least of people’s worries as new kinds of easy to make weapons become available.

Never bought a gun at Walmart and very little ammo, you can get some great deals on ammo on the internet and most sites you do not have to pay sales tax!

Maybe TShirts that state you support open carry and gun rights. Maybe a flash mobs with those TShirts on.

Something like the Civil Rights Sit In. A slow walk through Walmart with large crowd of people. Say nothing just wear a t-shirt with your statement.

Have a team (volunteers and lawyer types) with phone cameras to a capture any wacko attackers to be use to press charges.

".... I so so sick of this subject it's unreal...."

I'm not real sure why you would care what people on FB have to say about this subject to begin with.

And why you would get all wound up because of it.

Just let them have their opinions. It only affects you if you let it.

If the gun police think they’ve got trouble now with people buying on the black market, wait until Walmart gets this in place......

As far as I am concerned, Walmart will not be making any profit on ammo sales to me. I will buy online or at my friendly, local gun shop.

As someone said today, asking people not to carry in their stores is changing their name to “Target”!

It’s a start toward CW2.

There is absolutely nothing that will result in a "hot" civil war that has a high likelihood of occurring in next 2 generations.

The quality of life is at its highest in the history of humans in this country at this time. Employment is at an all time high, and despite what the media would have you to believe, equality is at an all time high.

The only possible exceptions, both of which are almost completely impossible, would be door to door firearm confiscation or the cessation of entitlement payments.

A hot CW2 isn't going to happen short of these two highly unlikely scenarios.

Firearm sales being outlawed, ammunition sales being outlawed or increased taxes on either aren't going to result in a CW.

Doubling the taxes you pay isn't going to result in a CW. It would most likely lead to a collapse of the economy, but there is virtually nothing that will happen that will result in an organized armed response.

Even if it did, it wouldn't be interesting to see how civilians would stand up to Apache's, M1A1's and drones.

If it is put off for two generations, it is over. By then they will be so brainwashed, dumbed down, and dependent on the Government that they will docilely submit to anything.

I personally believe that the muslims will have taken over by then.

"Although I’m not handy, I’m thinking about loading my own. I’m lucky to have an expert as a friend."

Generally, for safety, I think double checking everything is key. That, good light and safe storage.

Accuracy, though, is quite a learning experience. Have fun!

“I think gun related sales are very small at Walmart.”

Wwlmart is one of the last places that come to my mind for guns and ammunition....or anything else for that matter.

Let’s see:

the economy will fail, the southern border, oil, middle east wars, slavery restitution, pediphiles, tax cheaters, Brazil is on fire, climate change, gun laws, the child sex trade, terrorists, the availability and affordability of healthcare, the failing Social Security system, the way income and wealth are distributed in the U.S, Hunger and homelessness, drug use, the availability and affordability of energy.....This is not all of them, but every one of these has come up during the Trump administration, whether he caused them or not, and not one lib has worked with him to correct any of them. It’s all to lie about the problems to get him out or voted out of office no matter who has to fall on their sword.

Why isn’t the GOP not cramming almost every one of these things back at them for their failure to fix it before it reached this point or tried to help get them fixed working both sides of the aisle?

"Firearm sales being outlawed, ammunition sales being outlawed or increased taxes on either aren't going to result in a CW."

It would be interesting to see what people like Kamala Harris would do after possession of firearms being outlawed and confiscated. It would be just as interesting to see what criminals would do to law abiding people in every locale.

"Even if it did, it wouldn't be interesting to see how civilians would stand up to Apache's, M1A1's and drones."

Apaches, M1s and drones spend quite a bit of time on the ground, surrounded by large populations of civilians and needed services rendered by civilians.

In my opinion, we need to see nicer political speech, especially from the left. Maybe it's time for more drug raids and drug rehab for Democrats.

But the worst part would be interruptions of transportation, of services and squalor. Most people aren't accustomed to really roughing it. Guerrilla warfare can lead to some horrid conditions.
