Walmart reverses decision to remove guns and ammo from store shelves

Walmart has reversed its decision to take guns and ammunition from store displays in response to concerns about "isolated civil unrest."Walmart on Friday reversed its decision to take guns and ammunition from store displays in response to concerns about"isolated civil unrest."

But, “as the current incidents have remained geographically isolated, we have made the decision to begin returning these products to the sales floor today,” he said Friday. After a summer of heated protests related to police violence, and anti-lockdown protesters armed with assault rifles demonstrating in Michigan and Minnesota in the spring, storefront businesses are worried about what may come next week. Across the country, stores have begun boarding up windows and hiring additional security to prepare for any potential property damage.

Yea, remember ALEC Conservative lobbying group boosting a whole host of unpopular legislation to which Walmart once belonged & when light was shined upon them decided 2distance themselves. I’m quite certain they reversed that decision as well.

And concerns about dropping revenue.

What else would MAGA get for stocking stuffers?

It is hunting season and Antifa is on break.

Hoarders of foods & guns. Relax ppl.

So gun displays are the answer when civil unrest is happening? Twisted thinking.

Very disturbing.

It is sad how so called Christianity in the US is NOT following what it's founder Jesus says - that is to LOVE your enemies.

Won’t need them, Trump should lose by a landslide if people vote this time and don’t assume he will lose like last time.

Great advertising campaign from Walmart

WalmartInc Walmart BAD DECISION guns EveryVoteCounts

Free advertising! They are geniuses for pulling this off.

I won’t shop there again. I buy all my pet food at Walmart, but no more! At a time when people are hanging around polls with guns, is Walmart crazy? Politics wins again

BGramev68055257 Three days before the election...

I'm surprised that it took this long!

Walmart should stop selling guns and ammunition all together.

They know their audience of make-believe mercenaries 😂

Free adversing for them. Geniuses.

🙄

They see a business opportunity naturally

What? I thought Obama already confiscated all firearms and melted them down into statues honoring BLM and Antifa?

You can only see this crazy scene in US.

They mean business, no matter the election result , Walmart feels unrest time is coming ....

Of course. They realized it will cut into their profit margin. sellout

How bout History ?equalizers fair I recon?

Why reverse? Intimidation by whom? 90% of stockholders have no real interest or connection, many don't live in states which allow 'big box' gun sales & least 50% of them don't even live in u.s.! It's an oxymoron to consider Walmart as a 'family-oriented' store, to sell guns!!!

Capitalism ruled the day ... again

Of course not, why would a corporate devil like Walmart miss the chance to sell some shells...and guns.

Sounds like an invitation for BLM and antifa

Why, when 68.2% of Americans want more gun restrictions.

No surprise there, it’s all about the mighty dollar.

🙄ils sont fous ces americains

i'm selling my farts in a jar for just $15 holler y'all

When out and about ready to vote please WearAMask and we have gorgeous 😍 for you. Please retweet and share.sharing is caring.

Douchebaggatry

Sure! They will be a HUGE seller come Wednesday morning. 🤔

Imagine to sell guns together with food . It's fucking crazy.

Of course Walmart has reversed course. One can only imagine the snarling and spitting it received from the Gun-Hugging Cult.

This is so damn old.

Gun owners are soooo meh on this. Walmart caved to the left long ago. Nobody cares. Nobody buys

Because the country needs more Walmart gunfights...

Agree. If they are looted criminals are armed with their guns. Guess who the criminals are!

Pressure from the nra..they all suck dick

Under pressure from some Trumptards no doubt. And profiteering.

Maybe they'll have a sidewalk sale now....

If the shit hits the fan & the white supremacist steal the guns and start shooting America up the Walton family may live to regret this decision

Wow .

Nice advertising, media! Thanks

Good deal.

Did they get a call from Trump?

Must be NRA stepped in and ordered them to sell sell sell bc Of 2nd Amendment Rights. However, it will be used for intimidation. That’s NRAs real reason!

Walmart do you really need the extra money? You already short-change your workers, eliminate Mom and Pop’s and still make a killing because you’re the only game in many towns...can’t you just ONCE have some decency and put the damn firearms away for a couple months?

America is nuts in the way you guys idolise guns, so weird and dystopian like

Walmart could pay armed guards. They use 2 companies already as their security guards.

Shame on them.

Did the ProudBoys get ahold of them to let them know they were running low on rounds? FML civilunrest 2020Election

Well ya know, they had to make more money.... Dont you feel sorry for them?🙃

They were right the first time!

They're just worried about losing business. Get f*cked, Walmart.

VIGÍLIA GLOBAL ExpressFridayVigil

Walmart competing with covid to boost the death toll. This is how Walmart wishes their customers a Merry Christmas. BoycottWalmart

They changed their forecast from “isolated civil unrest” to “widespread civil unrest”

Dear Walmart - Dumbest decision of 2020.

Good....don’t give into the liberal left. Bring back all ammo so people can continue to enjoy their second amendment rights at a reasonable cost!

jentaub It was all an advertising ploy! A gimmick!!

Good, finally Walmart is protecting us from ignorant racist trashy ignorant people

Very disappointed! I thought they were doing the right thing..

Police and Wal-Mart Frightening the nation With their Guns and ammunition

It's the biggest run for guns & ammo ever in the USA. Long lines every day at anytime at every gun shop in the country. Shortage of ammo countrywide. We're worried the cops will stand back & do nothing about the Proud Boys and Trumpsters gone wild. I've a S&W now, too.

Fuck Walmart

I worked for Walmart for about a year and half 10 years ago. This is about par for the course. They earn about a billion $$$ per day, but god forbid they miss out on $15 for a box of 22 cartridges.

Poor decision..... really big mistake.

A Trump call ended a rational decision?

Of course they would. Mine is more important to Walmart than social unrest.

They should pause those gun sales ... it’s more than worrisome.

WTF?

CindyCinnis They had a good idea and then nixed it.

Well.... boycott Walmart!

And I was actually considering shopping there. Their true colors show thru. Back on my boycott list.

No surprise there.

Because they see an opportunity to make the $$, and that's all that matters to them.

UPDATE: Walmart picks up a history book and suddenly learns what historically happens to unarmed populations.

What idiots...along with crazyuncletrump 4 more days til PresidentBiden

That's one way to make more sales..and give people ideas. Smart move Walmart...profits before people every time.

Translation: we want to profit off of civil unrest by selling people weapons.

I've been boycotting Wal-Mart for years now. ( Mostly because it has florescent lighting and smells like old cheese)

Is Walmart prodeath?

THE FUTURE DEATH OF THE INNOCENT PEOPLE ARE IN YOUR HANDS WALMART..WHAT ARE YOU THINKING EVEN A DOG CAN RESPOND TO THIS B.S.

Geographically isolated... TODAY.

.perhaps people should boycott Walmart if they'd prefer

Obviously, the NRA crazies got to them.

Is Walmart secretly pushing for civil unrest?

I thought it was a good idea removing guns from shelves for a while... Bad move Walmart

Yes Walmart almost did what's morally right instead Trump likely complained to them and now it's ProfitsTrumpLifeAgain. Bet they're religious to boot. VoteBidenToSaveYourLife

Correction: To protect them from Biden voters.

.why walmarthelp why on earth and what if people get killed? Who exactly called head office? The NRA ? senatemajldr I'd politely say FU.

Guns can't murder people, people can murder people people, but need a control to buy a gun

Blood on their hands. Boycott Walmart and shop the infinitely superior Target

SHIT!!!!!!!

No! Rewind & remove! ffs...be sensible for ten fucking minutes!

Of course

Boooooo Walmart. Bad choice.

So Fucken Wrong, There go MORE LIVES, especially when Election Day is Near!! Dumb Asses

Of course they did. What could possibly go wrong?

Cowards

Because of course they do.

Vile

No more 'back to school sales'? What a shame.

Why are so many people shocked to see a McDonalds in a WalMart? You refer of course to the portent of social unrest being fomented by the current president of the United States and his incessant hysterical rants about 'election fraud' 'Antifa' and 'deep state' and the other bogeymen who will be the scapegoats for his historic election loss? Might have been good idea , if they try to steal this election , gonna be a lot of civil unrest , that’s a given!
