Police Accuse Retailer Of ‘Profiting From Racial Division’
I have a problem with that statement. What law, specifically, are they violating?

It’s good that they responded, but a shame that WalMart needed to be told in the first place.
Indicates irresponsible and/or immature management.

Have they also pulled the “Blue Lives Matter” shirts?

What now? Not long ago, people wearing a certain brand of sneakers got killed, and their sneakers stolen. :-/

The “KKK” and “Black Lives Matter” are both hate groups.
Neither group should be selling shirts in Walmart. But if they do, fine - we’ll just stop shopping there.

Not violating any law.
But still wrong to make money by stirring up hate and promoting BLM domestic terrorists.

To: Mr. Douglas
I didn’t read where the polie organization accused them of violating any law, they just expressed their opinion and evidently Wal-Mart decided to pull the merchandise in response. Anyone can object to anything, but usually it doesn’t do much good.

Do you think the white klan would be able to sell similar items? BLM is a terrorist group responsible for assassinating a dozen LEOs. The black klan organizations just don’t call themselves klans.

Not for many years.
Hillary Clinton was on the BoD.
Conquest’s Second Law applies:
“Any organization not explicitly right-wing sooner or later becomes left-wing.”

I will never get why Walmart does things like this. They sell clothing like this even though it is an insult to 90% of their customers. The Left, who would buy it, openly mocks and ridicules Walmart customers as a bunch of fat, ignorant rednecks.

None - Jesse Jackson has been doing this for years.
But the police groups can apply public relations pressure, legal or not.
