This may or may not be true. I just heard a Fox reporter say that a Wal-Mart in the New Orleans area opened it doors and told people to go get what they need to survive. If true, good for you Wal-Mart!

They did. And it turned into a riot. Even some fire fighters and National Guardsmen were reported to be looting the store...

But this can't be. According to the Marxist wing of FR, Wal-Mart is evil, destroys the little mom and pop stores, and all their junk is crap (cue the Made in China wisecracks). Never mind the fact that I bought a 27 inch Sanyo flat-screen there and it works beautifully.

National Guardsmen were reported to be looting the store... How is this possible? I thought they were all in Iraq.

Walmart actually will do something ,like this.
They have a disaster response team.
Walmart also donated money to the Salvation army as soon as they new about the extensive damages.
To: marblehead17
I dread shopping at Walmart, but this is really wonderful of them. I think I'll drop them an email and say so.
