Variable Wrote:I love how Barry tries to poison the well up front by tossing Walmart's name out there. They are the number one seller, never stopped during all of this nonsense, and haven't made any comments (that I've seen or read) about even considering stopping. Yet a lot of folks will be angry at Walmart because of what Barry said.
Barry flapping his chops = mission partly accomplished alreaady. His driving the wedge by merely using their name hands him a freebie. If I was Walmart I'd be standing in the corner like a deer in the headlights wondering what just happened.... It is a good idea to write them, but I'd keep it mighty civil. Too much friendly fire would convince them that they've likely already lost our segment, and being the mega corporation they are, they might just decide to do damage control and just eject from the whole firearms segment.
Most of us can afford to shop wherever, but the overwhelming majority of folks in flyover country (not Barry's urban flock) do shop there. I'd hate to help Barry lock his freebie in by going all apecrap at Walmart prematurely.
It'd be kind of like if Barry said he'd "kill the Grendel by leveraging John Hanka into changing this site". If he said that half the people on the net would fly off the handle all pissed at John before anybody even knew what really happened. Meanwhile John would be wondering what the heck just happened and many would be suspicious of him after that no matter what he said. Write Walmart, but beware of Psyops......
Very good advice, I dont like the fact that Wal mart sales all this Chinese $hit! But what retailer doesnt? Im built like a tank At 6'2" and 275 lbs and I cant just go down to the local clothes store where everything is for little guys who if they turned sideways you couldnt see them. So in a S.E. Ga rural town I do alot of shopping at Wamart including an AR purchase. Lets give them the benefit of the doubt. Now DICKS, please boycott their whiney ass store please!
