Inventory shrinkage, security.
There was a time when I drove from Olympia Washington to Portland for church.
I never thought Portland would become like this.
Get what you vote for.
Civilization is fragile—enough creeps in an area and it is gone...
Well, the Dems running Portland have shown they put the ANTIFA goons before their citizens. it couldn’t happen to a nicer city.
Walmart cut its teeth by staying OUT of urban and even suburban areas (that also kept them under the radar of the Leftists, while they greatly expanded). Going back to that model might not be a bad idea.
There is a universal moral solvent. It exists entirely within those who support Democrats and their sewer party. It ruins EVERYTHING it touches. They are the enemy and hopefully will be soon treated as such. For whatever it takes.
“Yeah! We won. Power to the people. Next we’ll shut down the grid. Then the public water works. Then we will achieved our greatest liberal socialist goals. Equality for everybody. This will be great.” Said no sane person ever.
Too bad they didn’t appreciate what they had. Wal Mart has no obligation to keep a losing store open because people are sad.
Embrace the suck, Portland. You voted for it.
Reaping the whirlwind. They just found out it was a lot easier to give their neighborhood up than it will be to get it back.
Well..they havent got the snow up that way like they have for the run off for Sacratomato and LA.
So I cant say it would be fun to watch that sty get flushed out.
Walmart is not entirely without blame: they have played around with Democrats and the far left agenda. My impression is they have spent millions trying to buy off the extremists.
I can’t cite a specific act of wrongdoing by Walmart this instant but could probably summons one with an electric computer.
A bit o’ this, and THAT crap will stop.
LOL, How Dare They engage in White Flight and create "Food Deserts"?
You mean you can’t run a business when people commit mayhem while taking their free stuff and burning your place down? I though the Walmart capitalists were rich and liked being roughed up, beaten,and shot,
Wal-Mart made itself big by being a destination for people who would “make a day of it” and drive an hour or more to load up on weeks worth of goods. I would imagine their stores inside cities break that sort of pattern and would then be more costly to run, have lower average purchases and lower profits per store.
Unfair to the BLM crowd. Now they’ll have to travel further away to pillage and shoplift.

Tuck that in some covid regulation legislation. You know, right next to mask mandates.
