RE: Boycott Wal-Mart
 

when the subject first came about there so many people thinking that wal-mart was portraying an image against hunter/fishermen. Maybe thats why he posted this all over again.

No need to kick a dead horse. this subject his been kicked enough

Sure marketing helped wal-mart decide not to sell firearm's, but I'll bet the $14.5 million dollar fine they just paid because their sporting good's employee's didn't follow the rule's also helped make that decision.

Its not just the marketing. In areas of the US, Wal-mart got slapped with charges of selling firearms to underage customers, and also selling the firearms to someone buying it for someone else. A great deal of media coverage and the anti-gun movement caught wind of it, and Wal-Mart ended the firearms selling in those stores. This happens mroe and more at these big stores.. it is not a surprise at all to see this happen. Another example is Big 5, where handguns especially on the West coast have been taken of the shelves because of employees not executing the full waiting period for that firearm, and letting customers go home with them. Employee error, bad judgement, and felony crimes have made the media and the anti-gun croons on capital hill enjoy the support for their unconstitutional legislation.

And to enter my feeling on the banning or boycotts, just don't shop there. I don't because I view local gun shops, grocery stores, and the like in first priority for the sake of local small businesses. My preference and mine only, but I advise those who want to boycott, just go somewhere else. Boycotting Wal-Mart is a waste of time, as that company is $20 billion a year business, spanning across the globe. You are not going to change their minds, as they do more income on the whole to even worry about where their firearm section is going. There are more stores out there where you can buy firearms, firearm accesories, and ammo.

I try to buy all of my things from small businesses, I don’t really like the whole corporation thing.

I am as discouraged as anybody about the state of US made goods marketing, but Wal Mart's not alone. Try to find any US made stuff that's affordable at Cabela's, Farm and Tractor Supply, Big R, Sears, Lowes, Home Depot, the list goes on. I always make an effort to buy US made IF it's reasonably competitive, but it's getting harder. Seems everything I like in my price range from Cabela's or Bass Pro or Sportsman's Warehousesays "imported" at the end of the description.

I'll tell my wife since she does the shopping that's her department. I'm not sure she'll be happy with it though.
