Maybe someone wanted access to the “Schlitz Malt Liquor” aisle?

[Hacklehead]

Perhaps they are outraged because the announcement said “black” instead of “african American”.

[TankerKC]

Why is that?

It's called a "safe assumption".

or sabotage by the usual Union Thug suspects who hate WalMart

Talk about people who hate Wal-Mart, just look at the title they choose:
    "All Black People" Asked to Leave S. Jersey Wal-Mart
From the title I'd say you are given the impression this was sanctioned by Wal-Mart and not the idea that it was more likely a prank.

Walmart intercom pranks are nothing new, as can be readily seen on YouTube.

Years ago,at the large Boston hospital where I worked,one of the junior doctors...as a New Year’s Eve prank..convinced the page operator to page “Doctor Dulcolax” to the Emergency Room.Talk about funny!

[DungeonMaster]

..and who is the culprit? Who was responsible for this? Whats his name and where’s his photo?

And was he black?

[freekitty]

I wonder if it was one of lefties did it to stir up trouble?

I wouldn’t be surprised since they are trying their best.

LOL. Nobody gets a rawer deal out of Americas racial spoils system than a way above average Asian who just isn't exceptional. Your scores would get you into MIT, if you were white. Your scores would get you into Harvard or Yale, if you weren't Asian. The UC system, they don't care that your GPA and SAT scores are above their average for admissions generally, or the average white score, you are just not an exceptional enough student to make it as an Asian. Tough luck genius.

They were “stuneed” because the matter is so “series”.

In fact, it’s “HUGH”

[Doogle]

...if we never get the answer,we’ll know

[Arthur McGowan]

I’m stuneed! Stuneed!

[Osage Orange]

If it was "All white people must leave the store immediately"

Would anyone be having a cow?

[DungeonMaster]

...if we never get the answer,we’ll know

That seems to the code lately doesn't it. ;-)

Well if somebody broke into that area of Wal-Mart then I am sure there has to be some law that was broken if they were not an employee.

You don't have to break into anything. There are phones at many cash registers, and placed throughout the store, unmanned. You just have to know the right buttons to push, which is trivially easy to discover (just ask an employee to make a legit-sounding announcement, and watch what they dial).

[RetSignman]

I think that should be ‘stunad’.

[MrB]

The thing is, white people WOULD leave the store...

[iopscusa]

May be some value in the guerilla activist aspect of this prank. I see a future with an ‘All Redheads must Exit’ or ‘All Bald Guys must Exit’ or a ‘No Whitey Day’ or an ‘Illegal Alien Day’.... certainly highlights the stoopidity of the ‘Social Justice/Class Warfare’ mantra!

[PA-RIVER]

Was Mohammed getting ready to blow up the Wallmart?
