Walmart will stop putting ‘multicultural’ products in locked cases

Walmart will no longer place multicultural hair care and beauty products in locked cases in any of its stores, the company confirmed Wednesday.
The practice, which Walmart says was only in place in about a dozen of its 4,700 U.S. stores, has received criticism for the implication that the customers who buy these products, largely people of color, cant be trusted. The cases must be unlocked by a store associate, and the products are usually then taken to the front of the store for purchase.

They’ll take less of a loss simply by not selling them at all.

What are the implications to me when they keep the ammo locked up?

Again was sort of my point.
They were in a locked case for a reason.

Walmart has decided to forfeit not only the profits but the cost of those products. A small sacrifice to gain the goodwill of a swath of its clientele. This is appeasement on the cheap.
Trouble is the Broken Windows theory; by essentially communicating to some of their customers that stealing is acceptable, Walmart will experience much more shrinkage of inventory than some trivial hair gel or what have you.

I tried shopping at the local Walmart when I moved to Baltimore. NYC unions would not allow a Walmart to open within city limits, so I was curious about shopping at Walmart. UGH! I wanted some cosmetic items like nail polish remover, not ethnic. I had to stand in line in the cosmetics section of the store and have a person check me over, that I only had the cosmetic items in my cart and nothing more. THEN I still had to go to the general cash registers by the front of the store. I felt as though I was being treated like a thief, when I’ve never stolen anything in my life. I know if Walmart unlocks the “ethnic” items, they will disappear without being paid for, and then all Walmart customers will have to make up the losses with higher prices. So go ahead, Walmart, be “woke”; I won’t be darkening your doors any time soon.

Exactly why blacks are constantly complaining about the police. They have a belief that they should be able to commit crimes with impunity because they've been wronged in the past. The police used to keep that in check somewhat, but the crime has gotten worse since Obama entered the White House.

I’m not a person of interest er color. I buy the multicultural hair products because they do what I need them to do.
Glad I just stocked up online.

There is some flaw in a teen aged girl's genetic pattern that compels them to shop lift. Just like how they HAVE to sneak out the window to snuggle with some moronic goon. Make up is the most common target.
Can I see a show of hands, of fathers?

How about Similac? Why is it locked up? Will it STAY locked up?
As for the rest, MW just won’t restock.

Walmart should just distribute them at the entrances and exits, for free. Same thing as what they propose.

They should disguise them as books. None would be stolen.
