Walmart Removes Guns and Ammo From Stores

 It might be a good move if you thought your store could be looted.  

Walmart Removes Guns and Ammo From Store Displays, Citing Potential ‘Unrest’


Walmart Inc. on Thursday announced it will pull all guns and ammunition from its store displays on sales floors at stores this week in a bid to prevent the theft of firearms if stores are looted or broken into during potential mass civil unrest.

The Arkansas-based retail giant confirmed its new policy to news outlets, stipulating that customers can still buy firearms and ammo upon request.

“We have seen some isolated civil unrest and as we have done on several occasions over the last few years, we have moved our firearms and ammunition off the sales floor as a precaution for the safety of our associates and customers,” Walmart said in a statement, according to the Wall Street Journal and other outlets.

It’s not clear if the company is referring to the possibility of civil unrest that may occur during the Nov. 3 election. Walmart pulled guns and ammo from sales floors earlier this year in response to widespread demonstrations, vandalism, looting, and riots following the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis.

Guns and ammo “do remain available for purchase by customers,” the retailer said in its statement Thursday, adding that “we only sell firearms in approximately half of our stores, primarily where there are large concentrations of hunters, sportsmen, and sportswomen.”

The firm stopped selling ammunition that can be used in semiautomatic rifles and pistols after the mass shooting at a Walmart in El Paso, Texas, in 2019.

This is most likely good news for Trump voters.  Looters tend to be liberal, Left, Biden voters.  And we don't want those folks kicking in windows and taking guns cuz they might hurt themselves OR they might try and hurt Trump voters.
