For a real kick in the ass, in the Seattle area the only place you could buy an American flag, made in America, after 9/11 was Walmart.

It was the same in PA, Wal-Mart was the only place carrying stocks of American Flags.

Another biggie for me was the emergency call for supplies from the rescuers at Ground Zero in the days following 9/11. They badly needed boots, gloves, flashlights, batteries, bottled water, energy bars, etc. Wal-Mart was giving everyone a discount who came in buying stuff to donate to the searchers at the Trade Center rubble.

I've never been able to figure out what fuels this downright hatred of Walmart?
