Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Of course in a similar story last year it turned out . . .
. . the "injured" party was perpetrating a fraud.

On the other hand, I have no sympathy for either WalMart or their shoppers. They deserve each other.

New How about the employees?
I agree that Walmart and its shoppers both suck. However both take large fractions of their suckage out on Walmart employees, who in my opinion don't actually deserve the treatment.

If the CEO and other higher ups at Walmart were the ones who directly got grief from Walmart shoppers, I'd wholeheartedly agree with you. But they don't. They just see the profits.

Cheers,
Ben

New If there were no shoppers, things would change
Just watched the walmart documentary - what a rotten company. Apparently walmart parking lots are among the finest places to commit crimes - no security to speak of. The crooks and rapists know this too. Crime rate in the lots is sky high.

OTOH, security is a little better if the store has crushed the union. Mention 'union' and they'll install $100k+ in cameras and surveillance all over the store and parking lot and use it until the threat passes. Then they stop manning the cameras again.

Walmart needs to face a significant drop in sales and even more opposition to new stores. Shopping walmart is supporting slavery.
