to be fair, more people have probably been crushed to death in mob rushes in WalMart's on Black Friday. Personally, I'd like to see those banned as well but I'm betting there's never going to be an enraged mom's group to end THAT madness.
Just as a reminiscence, I was working in Sunnyvale when the first Fry's Electronics opened. It really was a brilliant idea -- there had always been gear stores in Silicon Valley, but they were mostly either small or sort of disorganized (Quement comes to mind). Fry's had useful sections, AND software, AND caffeine and sugar for the coders. I always thought the family's prior supermarket experience had a lot to do with their success selling tech. Stuff as simple as endcaps and impulse buys near the checkout.
Uh-huh. That's exactly what happened in a Walmart in Ohio the other day. Some white couple saw a black guy with a gun and the mall cop shot him dead, The gun was a toy on sale at Walmart, which he was planning to buy.
I just want to see them try it in some nice white gated community in Dallas. one of the ones where cutting your lawn on the diagonal can get you kicked out.
OT, sort of, but OMG you guys I was in the Ace Hardware the other day and there was this skinny little white guy wearing a t-shirt that had a logo on the back for "White Pride Construction" and the tag line "Rebuilding America One Ghetto at a Time." I almost threw up on him, right there in front of the garden hoses.
Some days, there is not enough alcohol on the planet to make the pain go away.
I probably would too...but at the same time I feel a near overpowering urge to mock him.
"Hey look...it's the Cookie Defender" "Are those maxi-pads for your wife or do you just really like to keep your gun clean?" "Ah man...he took the last package of fruit loops...and he's too heavily armed for me to sneak them out of the cart."
I think the produce department would be an appropriate place to bring a weapon. Ears of corn often lead to a salt and buttery. And you never know when a potato is going to look at you funny.
Sorry Krogers I will not be back until you change your policies I will not put my family in danger from the fucking morons who you can not tell if they are a regular gun humper or a nutjob gun humper who is tired of playing mortal combat in moms basement
But, and only safely, you and dozen of your closest friend fill up some baskets and park them strategically around yon pork pie hatted patriot blocking their progress. Then leave.

Eye see your point.

The group also cited more than a dozen shootings at Kroger stores since 2012.
"We trust them [gun fondlers] to be responsible in our stores.”
How's that trusty snooty thing working out for ya, Krogers?
Wow, Kroger -- they're still around, huh? I haven't seen one of those since we left Michigan over 40 years ago.
right to bear arms, constutushunally protected; have them, not so much, evidently

frozen turkey more effective and has the added advantage of not wasting the kielbasa.
It would be sooooooo tempting to peer into his grocery cart and say "Hey I never knew condoms came in extra extra small!"

Some days there's a thin line between a lead cashier and a lead-filled cashier.
