The commie yuppies in my neighborhood are trying to block a Walmart.

What business is it of theirs ? The store will be 15 blocks south, across the freeway, in an area of Houston hardly related to our “Heights” neighborhood.

Hurt local business ? Yeah, right. I have a Home Depot and a Lowes quite close to me, but I still shop at my local hardware store for almost everything. Why ? I can park 15 feet from the store (instead of 500 feet), and the service is attentive and outstanding as opposed to sparse and rude. There are maybe 3 people in the checkout line instead of 10 or 15. And it’s closer.

More ignorant liberals trying to make everybody live “their” way.
