Walmart made a BIG no no

[Citizen711]

Walmart employees tend to be the type to have a DILLIGAF attitude.

WTF does "DILLIGAF" mean? Are you trying to birth a new internet meme?

 

[donballz]

I was determined to go on a murderous rampage but the gun case was locked so I said screw it.

 

[rnmcguire]

Blahahaha, this thread made me laugh more than once.

My walmart has boat paddles just sitting out on their own. I can't believe someone hasn't grabbed one and started beating people with it. Its a dangerous place.

That's nothing! My wife tells me they have scissors out where anyone could grab them. I saw these curtain rods that you could POKE an eye out with. THEY HAVE PLASTIC BAGS!! every heard of suffocation?? And when I saw the kitchen wash cloths. MY GOD, someone could jam that down someone's throat!

So I'm at the local Walmart with my wife and child. They are doing some shopping so I decided to go to the sporting goods, as I get there I notice the glass door to the guns is unlocked. Right in front of there AR section. I look around and find no one around, also the gate to the counter is wide open. Then to top it all off. I see the keys to everything on the back side of the counter. I was shocked!!! I stayed there as got on the entercom for a manager to come over ASAP. Finally 10 mins later I see a guy walking up. He asked me of I needed help. I told him I was the one that called over there phone and told him everything that was wrong. I then told him that of an ATF or someone came in and saw that yet could easily lose there license to sell firearms. I was completely shocked. I could of easily grabbed a rifle unlocked it an loaded up a mag and went to town of the store. It was that easy, I took a picture of the open glass window and will post it as soon as I can. I'm not sure how to do it from a cell phone. But I wanted to let everyone know of this situation.

. Seriously though, wallyworld sells ar's?

Is this supposed to be purple ? I sure hope so.

Ya. One was a Remington .556 and the others were .22. I couldn't read the tags well from where I was standing.

 

[drysdaleg]

My apologies for not proof reading. Big thumbs and small keys don't go together. My auto correct likes to do its own thing also

 

[spitfire51]

Considering the walmart near me (and I'm assuming the others around) leave the 7.62 ammo sitting on a shelf for anyone to come by and grab, but they have the utterly more dangerous .22lr locked up behind the glass door with nobody ever around to help you pick up a pack, I'm not surprised.

Well gentlemen, i guess we have a few comedians here, so since so many of you took the opportunity to arrogantly smear this man's thread with your poor taste in humor, i hope for your sakes you don't ever need to get a job in retail where you have responsibility for the inventory in your department. Somehow, excusing your arrogance again, you somehow missed what i believe was the main context of this story.
This man was with his wife and child, in a store where there are many children who somehow manage to run around without anyone taking responsibility for their actions. Well, kids are naturally drawn toward things they think might be 1)dangerous 2)"grown up" toys and 3)anything that might cause some excitement-i.e. fireworks, power tools, high powered machinery, etc. so this man, being smart enough to take all this into account, did the right thing, putting the general welfare of others before himself, and set an example- pretty damn responsible and something to be commended for i would say- oh, and by the way for those who haven't been following their Walmart current events- maybe you should check this out- [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94INAruvOrA[/ame] , and then think of the open case(s) of firearms and/or ammo

Well .... I wouldn't say arrogant. Maybe we were just having a little fun. But after looking at that video and reading your post ... I'd have to say,
GOOD JOB
to the OP.
The boat paddle comment was still funny though. Life's to short ...

I once had to wait 45min to purchase a box of .40cal ammo, not because of the usual I couldn't find someone to help me, but because the guy infront of me bought a Ruger 10/22, got cashed out then when she went to do the paperwork, figured out they didn't have a gun with matching serial number in the back and spent a bunch of time trying to find it before cashing me out. Maybe the OP is how such things happen.

But if you're really so upset about it, why post on a public forum under an anonymous screen name instead of calling, emailing or texting the ATF (ATF Online - Contact - Headquarters) and making the report with photo?

 

[LEaSH]

Don't do any of what he said. ^

 

[NolaMan61]

Yeah... I worked for walmart for a while, and I can tell you first hand that it's a big cult. And if you don't drink the cool aid, your wont be working there long.

Im not saying the gun case shouldn't have been locked but the sensational writing in the OP was just silly. Get the case locked up and move on.

Shhh, don't tell INGO that Wal-Mart has cameras and you are on tape buying ammo. Do you know how many threads in the Political Section that this will start?

You'd probably be surprised at how many of those black camera boxes on the ceiling don't contain cameras. :P

1-800-walmart can solve a lot of problems.I bet corporate would be very interested in this nonsense. Cameras are no substitute for a brain.

It would just get sent right back to the store in question.

Yup. I've seen dpms, colt, and sig ar's at Walmart.
